Good morning - I've got a FireWalla Purple at a vacation rental property in the Carribean and another one (Gold Gold SE - awesome) at our house near Boston.

I was looking at the site to site VPN option and interested - but not sure what the benefit or increased capability I would have?

Anything specific that I can do / see on the 'remote' network?

thoughts?

  1. Access to anything at the other location. Music, video collections, security cameras, etc.
  2. Access to services that may be blocked outside the US.
  3. Keep traffic hidden from local ISP and government.

  I am interested in doing the same configuration. I have a Purple box outside the US and a Gold box at home (in the US). If I set up a Site to Site VPN, would it be possible for me to route the traffic from a device outside the US through the tunnel and access my home internet in the US? Technically that the device would show as using a WAN IP from within the US, correct?

  If the direction for access is just one way, you can also use this https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/360023379953-VPN-Client#h_28c01609-8044-4733-8c00-9c1bab3bbebd

  Yes, you can route any traffic to the USA side. So, devices outside of the USA will appear they are in the USA.
