VPN Overview

You can configure a virtual private network (VPN) client within TIBCO Cloud™ Integration to connect to a VPN server within your network. This enables apps hosted in TIBCO Cloud Integration to connect to services running on-premise in your network using the VPN. Your on-premise services such as JDBC, FTP, JMS, and so on could then be used by TIBCO Cloud Integration apps. It does not require exposing your database or service as a public Internet service, so there are no open ports on your side.

VPN connectivity supports Cisco AnyConnect SSL VPNs (using the Cisco AnyConnect protocol) and Juniper SSL VPNs (using the Juniper Network Connect protocol.) For more details, see VPN Prerequisites.

A VPN connection defines the connectivity settings and credentials required to enable a VPN connection to your on-premise VPN server. After creating a connection, you can then attach it to an app, and the app can connect to on-premise TCP services with the VPN.
