    When you set up a VPN, it's exactly as though you had a dedicated circuit
    going to the other end. You simply configure your routing tables to use
    it. If you terminate the VPN at the firewall, the other computers on the
    network don't have to know about the additional route, as the firewall can
    be configured for the appropriate routing.
