RE: Need info on VPN.

[Peter Van Oene]

this rfc pertains to service provider vpn's leveraging mpls/bgp implementations.  Its likely a fairly complex topic for those who are interested in a general understanding of the "vpn" concept.  I will personally suggest that vpn is one of the more overused and ambiguous terms floating around these days "thank you multi million dollar marketing machines".   I would suggest picking up a basic book on vpns and focusing on various encryption/authentication methods.  Spending some time on the IPSec suite might prove beneficial.   I would also suggest that in the time it took to ask the question, a search on any internet search engine would likely have delivered countless resources :)   Pete     *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 11/21/2000 at 5:20 PM Ikpasa, Kerry wrote: Read RFC 2547   Cheers Kerry -----Original Message----- From: Patrick Bass [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 21 November 2000 4:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Need info on VPN. http://www.cisco.com/public/vpn.html ""karthikeyan"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 015101c053a4$98a02d30$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:015101c053a4$98a02d30$[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
