SECURE REMOTE ACCESS FOR DEVICES USING PRIVATE CELLULAR CONNECTIONS

In one embodiment, a device receives a request from a client to remotely access an endpoint in a local network. The device instantiates a network slice having a remote access function in a cellular network. The device causes the endpoint to communicate a particular type of traffic via the network slice and the remote access function. The device configures a virtual private network tunnel between the client and the remote access function. The client and endpoint communicate with one another via a connection that comprises the network slice and the virtual private network tunnel.
