VPN technology is based on tunneling. It requires establishing and maintaining a logical network connection. Packets created in a particular VPN protocol format are encapsulated inside another base or carrier protocol. They are transmitted between the VPN client and server and are ultimately de-encapsulated at the receiving end. Which statement best describes the function of voluntary tunneling?
