Strong disagree here: I sometimes do work which involves VPNing-in to SMB company on-prem networks from within other SMB’s on-prem networks, so they’re all invariably using 192.168.x.x or 172.16.x.x whuch means they all conflict with each other when you want to use LAN resources at the same time you’re VPN-ing to another network.
My hope is that IPv6 will mean point-to-site and site-to-site VPNs will die-off and we’ll be able to connect all hosts directly to other hosts (IPSec Transport Mode) - but then I’m reminded that configuring an IPv6 firewall for IPSec is conceptually much harder than setting up OpenVPN - and SMBs don’t have much in the way of people who even know what IPSec is, ugh.
