[NCLUG] cipe "virtual identity"

but what about if the firewall and gateway are seperated by the internet. lets
assume 192.168.0.10 is a real address. does the tunnel have its own addresses
inside the tunnel? like a real address of 216.17.172.1 on eth0 of the laptop,
and the firewall has an address of 192.168.0.11 (again, assuming its routable).
maybe i'm being confusing, and maybe i just need to play around with it some.
