Sophos XG: How to configure IPSec VPN Client to Site on Sophos XG

Overview

A VPN provides a means by which remote computers communicate securely across a public WAN such as the Internet.

A VPN connection can link two LANs (site-to-site VPN) or a remote dial-up user and a LAN. The traffic that flows between these two points passes through shared resources such as routers, switches, and other network equipment that make up the public WAN. To secure VPN communication while passing through the WAN, the two participants create an IP Security (IPsec) tunnel.

  1. Thank you for the article and for the list of VPNs that keeps user logs. I am relieved that I use Nordvpn provider which is known as one of the most reliable VPNs on the market. It is so important to keep your personal information secured from spying eyes because you never know when someone can steal it.
