As a network engineer, you need to securely connect two remote branch offices over the internet, allowing them to communicate as if they were on the same local network. Which solution would best meet this requirement?
Setting up a Site-to-Site VPN is the best solution for securely connecting two branch offices over the internet. This type of VPN creates a secure tunnel between two networks, enabling devices in both locations to communicate as if they were on the same local network. Remote Access VPNs are intended for individual users to connect to a network remotely, not for linking entire networks. An SSL VPN typically provides secure access for individual clients via web browsers and is not designed for network-to-network connections. Establishing a GRE Tunnel without encryption would not securely protect the data being transmitted between the offices.
