SOHO stands for small office home office where a VPN-enabled router can provide VPN connectivity back to the corporate main site.
Cisco AnyConnect is software that remote workers can use to establish client-based VPN connection with the main site.
A Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) firewall helps organizations provide secure, high performance connectivity including VPNs and always-on access for remote branches and mobile users.
The first types of VPNs were strictly IP tunnels that did not include authentication or encryption of the data

8.1.3 Site-to-Site and Remote-Access VPNs
Site--to-Site VPN
VPN gateways are preconfigured with information to establish a secure tunnel. VPN traffic is only encrypted between these devices. Internal hosts have no knowledge that a VPN is being used.
Remote-Access VPN
A remote-access VPN is dynamically created to establish a secure connection between a client and a VPN terminating device.
