Summary
VPN for VPC offers two VPN services. Site-to-site gateways connect your on-premises networks to VPC networks. Client-to-site servers allow clients on the internet to connect to VPN servers, while still maintaining secure connectivity.
Client-to-site server
Client VPN for VPC provides an open-source compatible client-to-site VPN solution that allows users to connect to IBM Cloud resources through secure, encrypted connections.
When your users are working remotely, traveling, or at a location without a site-to-site VPN connection, they can use an OpenVPN client to connect to VPN servers on your IBM Cloud VPC. For more information, see About client-to-site VPN servers.
Features
Secure, encrypted connectivity
A TLS1.2/1.3-based secure, encrypted way for your employees (or individuals) to access IBM Cloud VPC remotely. With VPN servers set up for client connections and Transit Gateway support, you can also privately interconnect to Classic IaaS and other VPCs on IBM Cloud.
High availability
Spans multiple availability zones for high throughput and resiliency.
Multi-factor authentication
Apply to your VPN server and client connections to provide an added layer of security to meet compliance and security requirements.
Operations and management
View the VPN server dashboard to monitor status and manage the lifecycle of VPN servers and their client connections. In different business scenarios, you can also delete clients that are connected to the servers.
