Question : layer 2 / layer 3 vpn question

Does using a layer 2 or layer 3 vpn solution essentially create a wan?  Would that allow clients to login to a domain controller at another location?        

Answer : layer 2 / layer 3 vpn question

Hi vpngolfer,

Yes, creating a VPN basically builds a private network connection through a public network.  Technically, there is no reason that someone could not setup a connection from their house to their office servers directly through the internet without a VPN, it's just that it would be too risky without the security in place.

Hope this helps,
Alan
