Protect your business with an encrypted VPN

The VPN utilises a suite of protocols known collectively as IPsec (Internet Protocol Security). By using this suite of protocols and a set of parameters configured on both the Memset VPN appliance and your IPsec endpoint, traffic passing between the endpoints is encrypted and authenticated.

Unlike other security protocols (such as Transport Layer Security), IPsec encrypts at the Internet layer of the Internet Protocol Suite. Due to this, it doesn’t matter what transport (TCP or UDP) or port is used when making connections to your Memset infrastructure, you can be assured that it will be encrypted and origin-authenticated.

The diagram below provides a high-level view of a setup using the VPN appliance:

Once your VPN has been deployed, you will have access to management tools in the Memset control panel to configure all IPsec parameters, and the ability to reload configuration whenever you need.

There is more information on how to manage your VPN through the Control Panel in our documentation pages.

Our VPN appliance supports PSKs (Pre-Shared Keys) and IKEv2 for key exchange (phase 1). If you have other requirements, such as certificates, please contact us and we will be happy to assist you.

You will require a firewall or Dedicated VPN appliance on your end that supports IPsec, as well as a Memset VLAN (£10.00/mo) to connect your appliance and your other Memset infrastructure.
