Análisis de factibilidad para la implementación del protocolo IPSEC en el nodo de internet 2 de la Univerisidad Politécnica Salesiana sede Quito, campus sur.

Abstract

The advanced academic network known as Internet 2, brings to promote and optimize the learning processes in higher education, the creation of knowledge and the creation of new technologies, this is done by developing some applications on this platform, including Salesian University South Campus is in prototype development phase as well as projects in the area of telemedicine and in this respect the present document refers to providing security to the network with the use of IPSec protocol in order to make prototypes and production projects. Unlike other protocols, this provides a solution to the security transparent to the user in turn holds authentication and confidentiality mechanisms irrespective of the applications being used. For the implementation of this protocol was performed an analytical study in a simulation scenario known as GNS3 networks supported by Wireshark tool , throwing figures such as the number of packages shipped , the transmission time as other factors that determine it is feasible to implement the IPSec security protocol on the Internet 2 in the UPS .
