VPN Protocols

VPN Protocols

VyprVPN accounts include multiple VPN protocols so you can choose your preferred level of encryption, speed, and protection. We offer OpenVPN, L2TP/IPsec, PPTP and Chameleon.

PPTP

PPTP is a fast, easy-to-use protocol with a simple setup process. It is a good choice if OpenVPN™ isn’t supported by your device.
L2TP/IPsec

L2TP/IPsec is a protocol built into most desktop, phone, and tablet devices. It is a good choice if OpenVPN™ isn’t supported by your device and security is top priority.
OpenVPN™

OpenVPN™ is the recommended protocol for desktops including Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Highest performance – fast, secure and reliable.
Chameleon™ Premium

Our Chameleon™ technology uses the unmodified OpenVPN 256-bit protocol and scrambles the metadata to prevent DPI, VPN blocking and throttling.

NAT Firewall

NAT Firewall is an additional layer of security for your VyprVPN connection. It blocks unrequested inbound traffic when you’re connected to VyprVPN. No additional configuration or software is required. Because it runs on our servers, NAT Firewall protects any device connected to VyprVPN.
