Abstract:
In today's world, the globalization of businesses and non-profits is at an all-time high. Companies are expanding their operations across the globe, which means that their main offices and satellite locations need to be connected seamlessly. This is where Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) come in as the most effective and cost-efficient solution to facilitate communication between geographically dispersed locations. When we talk about VPNs, we refer to Virtual Private Networks that leverage existing public networks to create a private network. The VPN technology establishes a private connection over the public Internet or an ISP-operated internal network, making it a secure way to transmit data. There are various types of VPNs, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. Our project will focus on Site-to-Site and DMVPN as the foundation for our study. We will delve into a real-world scenario where we deploy Site-to-Site and DMVPN, configure and test it. We will set up a system that links the various outposts of a global corporation with their parent company's central hub. Our aim is to validate the scenario and ensure that it works efficiently when properly implemented. By conducting this study, we hope to demonstrate the benefits of using VPNs for businesses and non-profits, and how they can serve as a reliable means of communication between geographically dispersed locations. The results of this study will aid network administrators and designers in selecting the right VPN technology for their organization.
