“…In a typical access VPN connection, a remote user (or VPN client) initiates a PPP connection with the ISP's NAS via the public switched telephone network (PSTN) [10,11]. An NAS is a device that terminates dial-up calls over analog (basic telephone service) or digital (ISDN) circuits [8]. The NAS is owned by the ISP, and is usually implemented in the ISP's POP.…”

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) allows the provisioning of private network services for an organization over a public network such as the Internet. In other words a VPN can transform the characteristics of a public which may be non-secure network into those of a private secure network through using encrypted tunnels. This work customized a standard VPN to a newly one called EEVPN (Effective Extensive VPN). It transmits a small data size in through a web based system in a reasonable time without affecting the security level. The proposed EEVPN is more effective where it takes small data transmission time with achieving high level of security. Also, the proposed EEVPN is more extensive because it is not built for a specific environment.

“…A VPN uses data encryption and other security mechanisms to prevent unauthorized users from accessing data, and to ensure that data cannot be modified without detection as it flows through the Internet [8,9]. It then uses the tunneling process to transport the encrypted data across the Internet.…”
