Site-to-Site
Site-to-Site
In a site-to-site VPN, the local router at one location connects to a remote router through a VPN tunnel. Client
devices can access network resources as if they were all at the same site. This model can be used for multiple
users at a remote location.
A successful connection requires that at least one of the routers to be identifiable by a static IP address or a
Dynamic DNS hostname. If one router has only a dynamic IP address, you can use any email address (user
FQDN) or FQDN as an identification to establish the connection.
The two LAN subnets on either side of the tunnel cannot be on the same network. For example, if the Site A
LAN uses the 192.168.1.x/24 subnet, Site B can use 192.168.2.x/24.
To configure a tunnel, enter corresponding settings (reversing local and remote) when configuring the two
routers. Assume that this router is identified as Router A. Enter its settings in the Local Group Setup section;
enter the settings for the other router (Router B) in the Remote Group Setup section. When you configure the
other router (Router B), enter its settings in the Local Group Setup section, and enter the Router A settings
in the Remote Group Setup section.
