Remote access via VPN

fb_webuser · ‎07-10-2013

I have a GRE tunnel between two office routers, one at the office and one at home. I need to also have a laptop access the VPN. Which software package should I get to do this with? And is there a free version

I don't think that you need any software for this. You need to connect your laptop with your router network and all you are done. I would like to remind that GRE is not secure please use ipsec over GRE.

Hello Web User. You need to deploy a separate vpn for remote acess from your laptop. As Ravi said you can use IPSEC. Also you can use SSL VPN for remote access. Since it seems you're using a Cisco router, it will be easier for you to deploy remote IPSEC VPN. For your laptop you can install Cisco VPN client which is free. There are also several free IPSEC vpn clients.
