Methods and apparatus are provided for enhancing security and fault tolerance for VPN gateways connecting clients in a public network with entities in a private network. According to various embodiments, primary and standby VPN gateways serving the same private network are configured with the same virtual IP address to allow public network clients the ability to efficiently switchover to a standby VPN gateway upon failure of the primary VPN gateway. Cryptography operations are executed using the virtual IP address. Routes can also be injected into the private network to enhance failover efficiency.
