What is a VPN protocol?

A VPN protocol is one of the most important things for a VPN. It creates a secure connection between your device and the VPN servers, hiding your activity from prying eyes on the internet.

How are VPN protocols different?

VPN protocols determine exactly how data is routed through a connection. What makes each protocol different is its specialization.

L2TP/IPsec

Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol (L2TP), frequently paired with security protocol IPsec, is a protocol that creates VPN tunnels. It is relatively safe, but other modern protocols, such as OpenVPN, IKEv2/IPSec, and WireGuard, are typically better than L2TP/IPSec.

OpenVPN

OpenVPN is an open-source protocol using virtually unbreakable AES-256 bit key encryption with 2048-bit RSA authentication and a 160-bit SHA1 hash algorithm. OpenVPN lets you unlock blocked content.

IKEv2

IKEv2 is a common VPN tunneling protocol known for being fast and stable. This protocol excels at switching connections across network types from WiFi to cellular.

L2TP/IPsec

Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol (L2TP), frequently paired with security protocol IPsec, is a protocol that creates VPN tunnels. It is relatively safe, but other modern protocols, such as OpenVPN, IKEv2/IPSec, and WireGuard, are typically better than L2TP/IPSec.
