Testing Network Security Using OPNET

چکیده
Network security nowadays has become a major priority for both network design and implementation. Due to this fact, the interest in making network communications secure has increased at the same rate as the accessibility to Internet services. Although security is a critical issue in e-business, it is often impossible to measure its effectiveness in real life because of the network administrators’ fears or prejudice. In order to find a solution to this particular issue, once more simulation opens the path to solving problems that are hard to fix in real life.

In this paper, we extend OPNET® network simulator wireless local area network (WLAN) models to incorporate energy and security. We then use these models to study (1) performance and energy characteristics of large-scale secure WLAN networks under varying channel conditions and (2) impact of energy-efficient security protocol adaptations proposed in [2, 9] on the energy consumed by Internet Secu...

متن کاملImpact of Implementing VPN to Secure Wireless LAN
Many corporations are seriously concerned about security of networks and therefore, their network supervisors are still reluctant to install WLANs. In this regards, the IEEE802.11i standard was developed to address the security problems, even though the mistrust of the wireless LAN technology is still existing. The thought was that the best security solutions could be found in open standards ba...
