New major features in this OS/2 version:
IPSec (Internet Protocol Security) is an Internet standard for interconnected,
secure networking devices and the predominant technology in Virtual Private
Networks (VPNs). The IPSec Plugin is released as part of the InJoy Dialer (dial-out),
InJoy Connect" (dial-in) and the InJoy Firewall.
The Plugin enables these products to serve as an IPSec gateway or function
as a VPN Client.
PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) specifies how a host PC
interacts with a broadband ISP (via xDSL or Cable) in order to achieve
Internet access. It relies on two widely accepted standards, namely Ethernet
and the point-to-point protocol (PPP).
Service providers are implementing PPPoE to replace the static IP addressing
or DHCP systems that do not offer authentication, billing, or service
differentiation.
