Gateway mode is a simpler configuration which essentially connects two separate networks via a VPN connection.īoth modes are easy to configure (requiring no more than selecting a button, in the LogMeIn interface) and each is useful for a different scenario. In a hub-and-spoke VPN, each client (or spoke) connects to a designated client which manages the connection traffic (or hub).
The other mode, "Managed," lets you create not only a mesh network VPN, but a hub-and-spoke network configuration or a gateway VPN. "Unmanaged" lets you to create an on-the-fly mesh network VPN in which each client connects to one another with no one client managing the connection traffic. LogMeIn's website offers two free versions of Hamachi for download: Unmanaged and Managed. By "on-demand" I mean that it's a real VPN solution that doesn't require you to set up an on-premise VPN server, hence, "on-demand." It's also closed and proprietary, unlike open-source VPN solutions from OpenVNS or Wippien. Hamachi differs from traditional hardware and software VPN solutions, however, in that it's an on-demand virtual networking service. Hamachi uses a secure connection to transfer data via the Internet. Hamachi is a true VPN client, not a cloud-based remote access service such as GoToMyPC.
