VPN functionality included in LV (Virtual Private Network)

[TorbenPostel]

Hi all,

wouldn't it be great if LV would be capable of VPN (Virtual Private Network). This would make tunneling connections into internal company networks much easier, without the need of a further software program establishing the IP tunnel.

If you think this is a great idea, please give Kudos.

Regards,

Torben

I doubt we'll implement this because there is no standard way of doing VPN.  Off the top of my head, there are three common ways:

1. SSL VPN you go to a web page, log in, and it runs an active x control)
2. Cisco VPN (common in corporate environments, but definitely not the only way)
3. SSH+Tunnels

If anyone reading this considers SSH important, please kudo this idea...
