VPN Technology Comparison and Intranet and Extranet VPN Access
Scenario 1:
In this thread, you will discuss the VPN technology comparison and intranet and extranet VPN access.
Assume you are a network professional. Employees at your organization use a web-enabled application to do the bulk of their work. Going forward, most employees will be working remotely. You need to choose a VPN technology to support them whether they work from home or while traveling.
Answer the following question:
- Should you implement an Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) VPN or a Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) VPN? Why?
Scenario 2
Now, assume your organization has both an intranet VPN and an extranet VPN. The organization is undergoing a network modernization effort, which requires a lot of time from some of the full-time network engineers. For the next year, a staffing company will provide IT contractors to fill in for full-time engineers, but the contractors are remote and will need VPN access.
Answer the following question:
- Should you set up intranet or extranet VPN access for the contractors? Why?
You could use the book (Chapter 11: VPN Technologies and Chapter 12: VPN Implementation) to read more about this topic and/or use other references. If you use a reference/s other than the book, you need to include your rference/s.
