Description
VPN (Virtual Private Networks) services have developed rapidly because they promise low cost transport over the Internet. By late 2000 the Gartner Group predicts that there will be at least 100 different kinds of VPN service packages to choose from. Instead of paying network consultants thousands of dollars to decide which package is best, this hands-on book will provide readers with the tools to make the right choice.
