Applying SoftEther for Networking Education
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents the use of SoftEther in supporting networking education. SoftEther is a tool to create a tunnel-based Virtual Private Network (VPN). Unlike Layer 2 tunneling protocol (L2TP) or Point to Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), SoftEther uses an upper layer protocol (Secured Socket Layer) to emulate a lower layer interface (Ethernet). This scheme is more flexible and easier to configure than other VPN schemes. It works with almost any Network Address Translation (NAT) router and firewall. With SoftEther, instructors and students can easily create a collaborative network for joint course projects. The tool itself is an effective course object for students to learn various networking concepts, including encapsulation, encryption, and VPN. This paper also presents an extensive experiment of SoftEther on packet trace and performance analysis as measured by round trip delay and throughput.
