    Of course, all clients have to install the
      VPN client of their choice, as well as well as any certificate or
      complementary authentication SW/HW tools (e.g. smartcard, OTP
      tokens).
      
      In my experience, small companies often use OpenVPN and large ones
      (e.g. banks) prefer proprietary solutions such as FortiNet.
      The VPN client is generally deployed/updated automatically when
      the laptop is connected to the enterprise network, like any other
      application.
      
      Before COVID, only a few selected people were allowed to connect
      to the enterprise network through a VPN, but this privilege has
      now been extended to a much wider population. :)
