VPN

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) extends a private network across a public network, such as the Internet. It enables a computer or network-enabled device to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if it was directly connected to the private network, while benefiting from the functionality, security and management policies of the private network. A VPN is created by establishing a virtual point-to-point connection through the use of dedicated connections, virtual tunneling protocols or traffic encryption. SimpleWAN devices allow you to implement an IPsec VPN.

vMPLS

vMPLS creates site to site connection that either meshes all sites or you can have one static site with all remote sites connecting to it. vMPLS Setup  is much faster than traditional IPSEC.

Note:  Any device connecting to the SimpleWAN VPN (i.e. Dynamic IPSEC, L2TP, or PPTP) will use the lowest number available in the LAN interface. if LAN is set 192.168.1.1, the next available IP 192.168.1.2 will be used and will increase incrementally (i.e. 192.168.1.3, 192.168.1.4, etc.) for each user using the VPN.

Currently, there is no way to change the VPN's DHCP address.
