IPSec (Internet Protocol Security) is an Internet standard for
interconnected, secure networking devices and the predominant
technology in Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). The IPSec Plugin is
released as part of the InJoy Dialer (dial-out), InJoy Connect"
(dial-in) and the InJoy Firewall. The Plugin enables these products
to serve as an IPSec gateway or function as a VPN Client. 

PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) specifies how a host PC
interacts with a broadband ISP (via xDSL or Cable) in order to
achieve Internet access. It relies on two widely accepted standards,
namely Ethernet and the point-to-point protocol (PPP). Service
providers are implementing PPPoE to replace the static IP addressing
or DHCP systems that do not offer authentication, billing, or 
service differentiation.
