OpenVPN is a very good product, but I would also suggest you look at IKE
built-in VPN technologies in the Cisco based RV series of routers. Using
the VPN built in your site gateway router, allows for a much cleaner
integrated implementation of site to site VPN¹s. A key here is to reduce,
if not eliminate the use of port forwarding on your router.
There are many offerings for VPN technologies. ³Your requirements² will
drive which one is the best for you.
