What’s the difference between “Add Servers” and this “Connection Guide”?
The “Add Servers” button in Global Private Fabric is used to connect your internal Liquid Web servers to the private network. This “VPN Configuration Guide” is for connecting an external device (like your office, AWS, or another remote server) to that same private network.
