I customer wants me to connect to their server using what he refers to as VPN tunnel instead of VFP client.

He explained to me that VPN tunnel is when "the network administrators would swap IP addresses (or ranges) of the machines which will need access and set up a permanent tunnel." I don't want to sound too ignorant and ask him too many questions, so I wanted to ask the experts here first.

Since he was talking about swapping IP addressed, I am not sure this would work for me. I believe that my ISP assigns an IP dynamically, that is I don't have a static IP. Would this make it impossible for me to use the VPN tunnel?

Thank you in advance for any suggestion or input.
