AWS Client VPN


AWS Client VPN is a fully managed, elastic VPN service that automatically scales up or down based on user demand. Because it is a cloud VPN solution, you don’t need to install and manage hardware or software-based solutions, or try to estimate how many remote users to support at one time.

How it works

  • AWS Client VPN
  • AWS Client VPN is used by your remote workforce to securely access resources both on AWS and within your on-premises networks.
    Client VPN lets you manage access and securely connect to your network. Configure the client VPN endpoint, associate subnets to client VPN, provide end user access with rules, enable connectivity to other networks, install the free VPN client on user devices and then let users log in.
  • AWS Site-to-Site VPN
  • AWS Site-to-Site VPN creates encrypted connections between your locations (such as data centers and remote offices) and your AWS resources.
    Site-to-Site VPN lets you create a VPN connection with the AWS Management Console, enable optional acceleration, download a configuration and add it to your router or SD-WAN, and then connect to your gateway.
