Virtual Private Networking
A virtual private network (VPN) is an interconnection between two networks that uses the
PPTP (point-to-point tunneling protocol). By using the Internet to transport data, a VPN can
eliminate long distance charges associated with traditional dial-up solutions. Since PPTP
provides a secure connection, network security is not compromised.
