Cisco Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
Cisco offers multiple alternatives for configuring a Virtual Private Network system, allowing you to choose the option that most closely fits your operational requirements. You can install both remote connectivity and site-to-site VPNs with Cisco IOS Software, through software and Advanced Integrated Module (AIM) encryption boards, or with physical units, such as a VPN access concentrator, router, ASA firewalls with Firepower, or devoted VPN server for dial-up services. All Cisco VPN approaches are easy to integrate and manage and provide the flexibility to grow along with changing operational requirements.
