15 Connecting to Instances in a Multitenant Site Using VPN
This topic does not apply to Oracle Cloud at Customer.
You can set up VPN access to your instances by using Corente Services Gateway on a Compute Classic instance. Corente is an Oracle-provided IPsec solution. Corente Services Gateway acts as a proxy to facilitate secure access and data transfer to your instances. All VPN connections to your multitenant Compute Classic site use a Corente Services Gateway instance in the cloud.
In your data center, you can use either a supported third-party VPN device, or Corente Services Gateway installed on a host.
Note:
In Compute Classic accounts provisioned from 17.4.2 onwards, Corente VPN solutions might not be available, as these solutions are being deprecated. Use VPN as a Service (VPNaaS) instead. See Setting Up a VPN Connection Using VPNaaS.
For Compute Classic accounts provisioned prior to 17.4.2, the following table provides the relevant documentation resource for each of the Corente VPN scenarios.
