However, VPNs are Virtual *Private* Networks, and I don't know of any company that publicly states what VPN technology they use (unless it's a company that sells VPN software/access of course). So I will not name any companies, although if employees of such companies that are on this mailing list want to say so, that's fine of course.> Use case is to provide site-to-site VPN functionality.Site-to-site networks are supported by tinc. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <guus at tinc-vpn.org> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I meant Tinc site-site VPN deployments in US business segments. Just references if any.

One of our setups looks like below: tinc-eu1 tinc-us1 / \ / \ datacentre EU --internet-- datacentre US \ / \ / tinc-eu2 tinc-us2 Basically, it provides failover and high availability for servers connecting between both datacentres. If tinc-us1 dies - traffic automatically goes through tinc-us2. We also use tinc in a dedicated hosting datacentre which does not provide a LAN/VLAN for our servers. There, each of the servers has its own public IP. We use tinc to create a kind of LAN between them: server_1 -- public IP -- tinc 10.a.b.c/d | server_2 -- public IP -- tinc 10.a.b.c/d | server_N -- public IP -- tinc 10.a.b.c/d We can launch LXD containers on any of the servers, and it can connect to other containers in the same LAN. This is quite useful. We also have a few similar setups, where we i.e. replicate a mongo database to a different datacentre. Please note that tinc does not provide wire-speed performance - it is fully userspace, and can only use one CPU core. So if you need sub-gigabyte speeds, tinc may not be a good solution for you.
