I'm new to VPN setups and have done some reading on it but find there is just too much confusing information out there.

So if i want to connect say 3 branch offices to the main office with VPN's how would i do it in simple terms.
Do i realy need IAS and Radius and Certificate Services and what role does my ISP play if any??
 
Hi
The way that we setup VPNs is that we have a router at both sites then configure these to connect to each other. In terms of your ISPs you usually need a static IP address as if this changes then the tunnel will drop.
 
Also if you have a linksys router, Linksys has a very simple yet efficient software called QuickVPN Client. You just setup the usernames from within the router page and then use the client to connect with the username credentials....
