On some, more than anything else. For example, if the VPN is used as part of a supply chain, there are access-lists on both ends and a lot of other manual config all over the place because this involves getting access into some protected areas of the system. > I always thought a VPN was more about access control, > rather than anything else. Access control means access-lists and similar annoyances and they don't change dynamically. This blends with the renumbering issue that I don't want to open again but a perfect example of "un-renumberable" network is a large, multi-company VPN setup. > I can't see any particular reason why address stability is > any more required there than the internet at large. Because VPN configurations are sometimes a lot more complicated than Internet configurations.
