Network appliance for providing configurable virtual private network connections
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for a network appliance comprising a plurality of virtual private network nodes operating on the network appliance, each virtual private network node being configurable to connect to selectable virtual private network end points in an on-demand computing network. A web interface is configured to connect a client device to the network appliance and to identify a selected virtual private network end point, where the client device is connected to a particular one of the virtual private network nodes and the particular virtual private network node is connected to the selected virtual private network end point based on interactions with the web interface. The on-demand computing network includes a first provisioned resource assigned as a hub device; and one or more second provisioned resources assigned as rim devices, where a particular rim device comprises a bridge device, wherein the bridge device repackages data received from the on-demand computing network prior to forwarding that data such that the data received from the on-demand computing network appears to terminate at the bridge device to an observer viewing the data between the hub device and the bridge device.
