1. However, installation isn't the only thing that you should worry about. The PPH SSH also needs to be configured. Fortunately, it is also easy to do it. It doesn't matter if it is a PPP SSH Windows or Linux setup, you won't have to follow complex programming routines in order to make it work correctly.
2. What about firewalls? Nowadays, almost every network and computer has a firewall installed (it can be a software or hardware firewall). So, how can you make it work with your PPP SSH VPN? Easy. If you are already using SSH for other kinds of communications, then there will be no problem in using it for a PPP VPN. And, if you are not using it, it's highly probable that you won't have any problems with it.
3. Multiple tunneling is also easy to install. The only requirement that you need is to assure yourself that each one of the tunnels connected to the computer have an IP address of their own.
4. And forget about manual routing. The beauty of PPP is that it can make automatic routing for you. However, what if you have a complex routing? In that case you can make changes easily thanks to the routing commands.
5. Something similar happens with IP addresses. You won't have to configure, manually, the IP addresses in the PPP SSH VPN. You can use dynamic IP addresses, so the computer is the one who decides which IP addresses will it use.
6. Finally, it's free! You won't have to pay a cent for it. Nevertheless, if you feel that it is beyond your capacity or if you wish to see an expert install it as a future reference, you can contract the services of a freelance systems engineer for installing and configuring the PPP SSH VPN.
