MikroTik Site to Site SSTP VPN Setup with RouterOS Client
VPN (Virtual Private Network) technology provides a secure and encrypted tunnel across a public network. So, a private network user can send and receive data to any remote private network through VPN tunnel as if his/her network device was directly connected to that private network. Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) transports PPP tunnel over TLS channel. SSTP uses TLS channel over TCP port 443. So, SSTP VPN can virtually pass through all firewalls and proxy servers. Because of using TLS channel, encrypted data passes over SSTP Tunnel. So, there is no chance to steal data by a middle man attacker and data can send and receive across public network safely. MikroTik SSTP Server can be applied in two methods. Connecting from remote workstation/client: In this method, SSTP VPN client software can communicate with MikroTik SSTP VPN Server over Secure VPN tunnel whenever required and can access remote private network as if it was directly connected to that remote private network. Site to Site SSTP VPN: This method is also known as VPN between routers. In this method, an SSTP client supported router always establishes a SSTP VPN tunnel with MikroTik SSTP VPN Server. So, private networks of these two routers [...]
