virtual private networks
Virtual Private Networks (VPN) provide 'end to end' connectivity, capable of delivering private data reliably and securely between business locations.
Running over iiNet's national MPLS network, users benefit from low setup and usage costs on high speed ADSL2+ connections. Offices, shops and distribution centres can access resources from multiple office locations, locally or inter-state.

how it works
Using IP based MPLS technology, data is routed between sites in a quick and secure manner. To ensure reliable performance a premium class of service is attached to VPN prioritising it above regular traffic. This equates to lower latency, minimal variation and higher throughput. Business VPN provides security comparable to traditional private frame relay and ATM networks.
Business VPN services do not provide
internet
access, this is done to ensure private networks cannot be breached by unauthorised parties over the public internet.
Internet functionality can be included by adding a DSL service at one of the VPN sites and allowing access through this channel. Local routing will need to be configured by a qualified IT consultant and iiNet recommends the use of firewalls in these instances.
Our range of Business DSL plans are available separately for internet access. In which case DSL plan quotas will apply for all internet usage.
