FAQ
What is an enterprise VPN alternative?
It connects your sites and remote users without the public IPs, port forwarding, and tunnel upkeep a traditional VPN needs. Combway SDLAN is a zero-config SD-WAN that delivers the same secure reach with far less operations — no public IP required, encrypted end-to-end by design.
How is SD-WAN different from site-to-site VPN?
A site-to-site VPN stitches locations with encrypted tunnels over the public internet, which means a public IP and ongoing tunnel management at every end. SD-WAN (SDLAN) builds a smart overlay that routes traffic across the best path automatically — Combway's version needs no public IP and configures itself, so your team deploys in minutes rather than days.
Do I need a public IP or port forwarding for Combway SDLAN?
No. Combway SDLAN works without a public IP and without port forwarding. Sites connect from behind any ISP or NAT, which shrinks your attack surface and removes a common setup failure point.
Is SDLAN secure without a VPN tunnel?
Yes. Traffic is encrypted end-to-end by design, and security is something you can verify rather than take on trust — Security You Can Verify. Combway aligns to ISO 27001 and GDPR-ready practices, with 500,000+ businesses verified on the platform.
Can I scale from a few sites to thousands?
Yes. One flat network spans from 2 sites to 2000+ across 20+ countries on IPv6-ready infrastructure — without re-architecting as you grow.
