erich.wanker Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Hello, a short Question: Is it possible to install a apache webserver on WinServer2019 (hosted in a dataCenter) - which is just reachable - if a client first starts a VPN-tunnel to the server? the amount of simultanes users schould be 100 (does a VPN Software exist for such thinking?) reason: in law-view it is a intranet-solution.

mierlp Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Hi Erich A VPN always consists of 2 components: - VPN CLIENT - VPN SERVER/HOST The CLIENT contains the configuration and know to which SERVER/HOST he has to connect. The SERVER/HOST takes care of the incoming requests and denies connections which are not use the client configuration. A VPN routes a device's connection throught a private server/host instead of the ISP General there are 2 types of VPN connecitons: REMOTE ACCESS VPN: A remote access VPN enables the user to connect their device to a network from outside their organization’s office. This device-to-network approach typically involves a user connecting their laptop, smartphone, or tablet to a network through their VPN. SITE-TO-SITE VPN: A site-to-site enables connections between multiple networks. This network-to-network approach is typically used to connect multiple offices or branch locations to a central office. So...yes it's possible if every users has installed the proper vpn client/configuration. For my daily work we also use a VPN for about 2700 users/devices and that will be about 1500-1800 concurrent. We use products from Fortinet | Enterprise Security Without Compromise. You can also look at: Best Open-Source VPNs Update 2022 - 5 Choices To Consider!

Franco Grech Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Use Mikrotik CHR on your VDS. It can handle the VPN requests more easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
