A remote access VPN allows users to securely connect to a private network from a remote location, such as their home or office. A site-to-site VPN allows two or more networks to attach and communicate with each other over the internet securely. With a remote access VPN, the user only needs to click once to access the network. With a site-to-site VPN, the networks must be continually connected to exchange data. Remote access VPNs can be used for secure access from any location, while site-to-site VPNs are better suited for linking multiple sites or networks.
