VPN Gateway is an Internet-based service that allows you to connect enterprise data centers, office networks, or Internet-facing terminals to Zain Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks through secure and reliable connections. VPN Gateway supports both IPsec-VPN connections and SSL-VPN connections.
Route-based IPsec-VPN allows you to route network traffic in multiple ways, and also facilitates the configuration and maintenance of VPN policies. You can use IPsec-VPN to connect an on-premises data center to a VPC network or connect two VPC networks. IPsec-VPN supports the IKEv1 and IKEv2 protocols. Any devices that support these two protocols can connect to Zain Cloud VPN Gateway.
SSL-VPN is implemented based on the OpenVPN framework. You can create an SSL-VPN connection to connect a remote client to applications and services deployed in a VPC network. After you deploy your applications or services, you only need to import the certificate to the client to initiate a connection.
