  1. VPN: Virtual Private Network Presented by: Germaine Bacon Lizzi Beduya Betty Huang Jun Mitsuoka Juliet Polintan

  2. INTRODUCTION What is a VPN?

  3. Introduction: What is a VPN? • Virtual • Private • Network

  4. Introduction to VPN

  5. Introduction (continued): • Four Categories: • Trusted VPN • Secure VPN • Hybrid VPN • Provider-provisioned VPN

  6. VPN TOPOLOGY How does a VPN work?

  7. VPN Topology: Types of VPNs • Remote access VPN • INTRANET • Extranet VPN

  8. VPN Topology: Remote Access VPN

  9. Intranet VPN • An intranet is a private network accessible only to an organization's staff.[1][2] Often, a wide range of information and services are available on an organization's internal intranet that are unavailable to the public, unlike the Internet. A company-wide intranet can constitute an important focal point of internal communication and collaboration, and provide a single starting point to access internal and external resources. In its simplest form, an intranet is established with the technologies for local area networks (LANs) and wide area networks(WANs).[3][4][5]

  10. VPN Topology: Intranet VPN

  11. EXTRANET • An extranet is a controlled private network that allows access to partners, vendors and suppliers or an authorized set of customers – normally to a subset of the information accessible from an organization's intranet. An extranet is similar to a DMZ in that it provides access to needed services for authorized parties, without granting access to an organization's entire network. An extranet is a private network organization.

  12. VPN Topology: Extranet VPN

  13. VPN Topology: Advantages and Disadvantages of VPN • Advantages: • Greater scalability • Easy to add/remove users • Reduced long-distance telecommunications costs • Mobility • Security

  14. VPN Topology: Advantages and Disadvantages of VPN • Disadvantages • Lack of standards • Understanding of security issues • Unpredictable Internet traffic • Difficult to accommodate products from different vendors

  15. VPN Topology: What is needed? • Existing hardware (Servers, workstations,…) • Internet connection • VPN - Router/Switch • Software to create and manage tunnels • Security Device such as firewall

  16. VPN Topology: How it works • Operates at layer 2 or 3 of OSI model • Layer 2 frame – Ethernet • Layer 3 packet – IP • Tunneling • allows senders to encapsulate their data in IP packets that hide the routing and switching infrastructure of the Internet • to ensure data security against unwanted viewers, or hackers.

  17. VPN COMPONENTS What are the components of VPN?

  18. VPN Components • Protocols • Security • Appliances

  19. VPN Components: Protocols • IP Security (IPSec) • Transport mode • Tunnel mode • Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) • Voluntary tunneling method • Uses PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)

  20. VPN Components: Protocols • Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) • Exists at the data link layer of OSI • Composed from PPTP and L2F (Layer 2 Forwarding) • Compulsory tunneling method

  21. Example of packet encapsulation

  22. VPN Components: Security • Encryption • Technique for scrambling and unscrambling information • Unscramble – called clear-text • Scrambled information – cipher-text

  23. VPN Components: Security • Keys • Secret code that the encryption algorithm uses to create a unique version of cipher-text • 8-bits keys = 256 combinations or two to the eighth power • 16-bits keys = 65,536 combinations or two to the 16th power • 56-bits keys = 72,057,594,037,927,900 or two to the 56th power • 168-bits keys …

  24. VPN Components: Security • Authentication • Determine if the sender is the authorized person and if the data has been redirect or corrupted • User/System Authentication • Data Authentication

  25. VPN Components: Appliances • Intrusion detection firewalls • Monitors traffic crossing network parameters and protects enterprises from unauthorized access • Packet-level firewall checks source and destination • Application-level firewall acts as a host computer between the organization’s network and the Internet

  26. VPN PRODUCTIVITY AND COST BENEFITS How can companies benefit from VPN?

  27. VPN Productivity and Cost Benefits: Benefits • Extends geographic connectivity • Boosts employee productivity • Improves Internet security • Scales easily

  28. VPN Productivity and Cost Benefit: Costs • Costs associated with implementing VPN • In House implementation • Outsourced implementation • Middle Ground implementation

  29. QUALITY OF SERVICE (QoS) WHAT IS QoS?

  30. What is QoS?

  31. VPN Productivity and Cost Benefits: Quality of Service • Question: “Do I get acceptable response times when I access my mission critical applications from a remote office?”

  32. QoS Options • Two models are available for QoS functionality: • Differentiated Services Model (DiffServ) • Integrated Services Model (IntServ)

  33. Differentiated Services Model (DiffServ)

  34. Integrated Services Model (IntServ)

  35. THE FUTURE OF VPN Where is VPN headed?

  36. Future of VPN • VPN popularity • Companies choosing VPN • Cost efficient? • New way of communicating?

  37. Future of VPN: Companies with VPN

  38. CONCLUSION Any questions?
