Changes in setup/configuration for VPN and IPSec??



VPN network:
- The additional VPN related setup/configuration is required only at
the entry/exit point of the network i.e. routers. No changes are
necessary on other machines/systems in that network.

IPSec network:
- Each machine/system in the network will need to have the additional
IPSec related setup/configuration.

Is that correct? Which one is preferred over the other, and in what
scenarios?
