61. Chapter - Connect individual PCs

61.1. Concept

To connect a single computer to the company network, you can install WireGuard VPN client software on the computer and use it to establish a VPN connection.

Such individual computers are usually located behind routers that mask their local network using NAT. In the case of mobile computers, the IP in the local network also changes with every change of location or dial-up process. This is not a problem in itself, but this is why VPN clients cannot simply use their IP in the current local network for the VPN, but fall back on a previously defined virtual IP. This is configured once in the Intra2net system and in the client during setup and is then permanently valid for this one client.

If the local network in which the client is currently located uses the same IP network as the company network with which you want to establish the VPN connection, the IPs can no longer be clearly assigned and the connection will fail.

For most supported clients, the Intra2net system can automatically prepare suitable configuration files that only need to be imported into the client. However, manual configuration is also always possible.
