WeaveVPN

Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are an important tool in networking infrastructure and OpenVPN is the most prolific and robust open source framework for VPN connectivity. In theory, OpenVPN allows the set up of a Software Defined Network (SDN), connecting many different VPNs together. However in practice this is difficult to accomplish. WeaveVPN is a web based service for dynamically setting up and configuring an SDN, quickly, easily, and securely.
