Chapter 5 PacketiX VPN Bridge 2.0 Manual

PacketiX VPN Bridge is software that allows you to cascade-connect to a Virtual HUB of PacketiX VPN Server operating at a remote location and create a Layer-2 bridge connection between that VPN connection and a physical network adapter on a computer running PacketiX VPN Bridge. PacketiX VPN Bridge is the ideal software for a computer connected to a remote base LAN when you want to connect the remote base LAN to a VPN configured with PacketiX VPN Server (namely, a Virtual HUB on a PacketiX VPN Server).
