What Are the Differences Between IPsec VPN and SSL VPN in Application Scenarios and Connection Modes?
Application Scenarios
IPsec VPN connects two LANs, such as a branch and its headquarters (or a VPC), or an on-premises data center and a VPC.
SSL VPN connects a client to a LAN. For example, the portable computer of an employee on a business trip accesses the internal network of the company.
Connection Modes
IPsec VPN requires fixed gateways, such as firewalls or routers, at both ends. The administrator needs to configure gateways at both ends to enable them to complete IPsec VPN negotiation.
SSL VPN requires a specific client program installed on hosts. Users need to enter usernames and password to connect the hosts to SSL servers.
Currently, only IPsec VPN is supported; SSL VPN is not supported.
