Publisher review:GVPE creates a virtual ethernet by making encrypted host-to-host tunnels between multiple endpoints. GVPE creates a virtual ethernet (broadcasts supported, any protocol that works with a normal ethernet should work with GVPE) by creating encrypted host-to-host tunnels between multiple endpoints. Unlike other virtual private "network" solutions which merely create a single tunnel, GVPE creates a real network with multiple endpoints.
It is designed to be very simple and robust (cipher selection done at compiletime etc.), and easy to setup (only a single config file shared unmodified between all hosts).
Vpn hosts can neither sniff nor fake packets, that is, you can use MAC-based filtering to ensure authenticity of packets even from member nodes.
GVPE can also be used to tunnel into some vpn network using a variety of protocols (raw IP, UDP, TCP, HTTPS-proxy-connect, ICMP and DNS). It is, however, primarily designed to sit on the gateway machines of company branches to connect them together.
GVPE 2.01 is a C/C++ script for Internet, Browsers and Tools scripts design by Marc Lehmann.
It runs on following operating system: Linux / BSD.
