That's kinda       the point of VPN. Since it is so integral to the whole concept of VPN       this bit of info is considered a trivial detail and isn't explicitly       mentioned in a network diagram. Usually most VPN diagrams will simply       show a cloud labelled Internet between the two sites. That indicates       that it does not matter what ISP the two ends connect to as long as they       have full internet access.                     --       WARNING!
