How to connect to your corporate office using a VPN
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) uses a public network such as the Internet to provide secure
communications between a remote computer and another network. Corporations often provide VPN
access to their networks to enable employees to work from remote offices or while traveling. Most
corporate VPNs use the Internet.
For a typical VPN, the corporation installs a VPN gateway on their corporate network. Employees
authorized to work remotely connect to the VPN gateway through the Internet using VPN software
and security methods provided by their employers. Security and authentication requirements ensure
a secure connection and access by only authorized users.
The default VPN settings in your router have been configured to pass through (allow) the most
common types of VPN protocols. Usually, no changes are needed.
To change your VPN passthrough settings:
1. Log into Linksys Smart Wi-Fi. (See ‘‘How to connect to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi’’ on page 10 .)
2. Under
Router Settings
, click
Security
. The
Security
page opens to the
Firewall
tab.
3. Enable each setting that you want to change.

IPSec Passthrough
--- IPSec (Internet Protocol Security) is a suite of protocols used to
implement secure exchange of packets at the IP layer. The VPN clients on the local
network can establish an IPSec VPN tunnel through the router. This option is enabled
by default.
