Instant AP supports the configuration of tunneling protocols such as GREGeneric Routing Encapsulation. GRE is an IP encapsulation protocol that is used to transport packets over a network., IPsecInternet Protocol security. IPsec is a protocol suite for secure IP communications that authenticates and encrypts each IP packet in a communication session., and L2TPv3.
