OpenVPN Cloud is a secure private network connection hosted in the cloud.
OpenVPN Cloud is preferred over other VPN services and the previous OpenVPN service due
to the following benefits:
- You do not need to configure incoming port forwarding, a firewall, or DMZ (Demilitarized zone) at the router level because the FS Series controller connects to the cloud with a safer outgoing connection.
- You do not need additional VPN software or hardware, you only need an internet connection. OpenVPN Cloud uses the FS Series controller's built-in VPN software.
- You lower implementation costs with use of dynamic IP addresses on remote sites.
- You can use up to three free connections with the service.
- The service only charges by the number of connections.
