Can a VPN connection be created on demand or is it established on a permanent basis.

Either way, based on where the VPN is established. Desktop (Voluntary) or ISP (Mandatory)

It depends on the VPN vendor you're using. On ours, the VPN client is bound to either all network adapters or merely dial-up adapters.

It also depends on how your policy is laid out or configured. If you wish your clients to *only* access your VPN (i.e. not browse the web), some clients can enforce that policy. Check with the vendor supplying the software to make sure what is possible.

I agree. It depends on how your VPN solution is set up. If this is a site-site it would probably be configured for a permanent basis, being invisible to the client. If this is a traveling, or remote client, it will probably be setup as an on demandbasis, that they would have to initiate to get back to the corporate office.
