Windows Compatibility and Mac OS X

Virtual Private Networking (VPN)

VPN enables you to connect to your school or business network securely using almost

any available Internet service provider (ISP). Using VPN, you can access mail servers,

file servers, web servers, and other private network services as if your computer were

physically connected to your school or business network. Mac OS X includes VPN client

software that supports the popular Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol over Internet Protocol

Security (L2TP/IPSec) and Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), making Mac OS X

compatible with popular VPN servers, including those from Apple, Cisco, and Microsoft.

Share Network Services

The networking technologies in Mac OS X are based on the advanced Berkeley Standard

Distribution (BSD) UNIX networking stack—the backbone of most TCP/IP implementa-

tions on the Internet—for fast, flexible Internet connectivity.

Mac OS X uses standard Internet connectivity protocols, including Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Point to Point Protocol (PPP), PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE),

and PPPoE over AirPort. These protocols enable Macintosh computers to work with

services that are already in place in many locations; they are the same protocols used

by Windows PCs to connect to the Internet. Because they’re built into Mac OS X, setting

up your Internet connection with a Mac usually takes only a few minutes. If you’re a

previous Windows user switching to the Mac, you’ll be happy to know that you’ll be

able to do all the things you’re used to doing with a PC on the Internet—and more.
