[15:24:12 2006-7-27] The point-to-point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a tunnel Protocol defined by PPTP BBS, which allows PPP packets to be encapsulated inside IP packets to be forwarded on any IP network including the Internet. Windows 98 and above support PPTP. What is the difference between transmission mode and tunnel mode? [the 2006-7-27 15:22:52] Transmission mode - packet load (data) part is encapsulated by encryption but IP header remains transparent (unchanged).

The high - width VPN firewall does not support transmission mode. Tunnel mode - all parts, including the original IP header, are encapsulated to produce a new IP header. Only this new header is transparent (without protection) and is more secure. It is a security gateway that enables secure gateways to provide IPSec services to other machines that lack IPSec capabilities, which can protect the entire IP package including user data. The wide VPN firewall supports tunnel mode. What security protocols does IPSec support? [the 2006-7-27 15:21:25] : IPSec provides two kinds of agreements: AH (certification of baotou, provide data authentication, data integrity protection, replay attack protection function, protocol no. 51) and ESP (encapsulating security payload provides data confidentiality, data authentication, data integrity, replay attack protection function, protocol no. 50) What is IPsec? [the 2006-7-27 15:20:48] : IPSec is a widely used VPN security standard, used on TCP/IP networks, which works at the level of packets to verify and encrypt all packets in the VPN channel. This way, it doesnt care what application is used on your PC, and any application can use a VPN like any other network connection. IPSec VPN exchange information through a connection known as SA (se
