Category: Security, Networking and Communications

Tags: vpn, infrastructure, network, management

Overview Virtual Private Network (VPN) is one of the major trends in the integrated broadband communications environment. Commonly, a network operator or a value added service provider offers VPN services to corporations that wish to tie together their geographically dispersed offices. Currently, the control and management of the VPN resources is mainly supported by the provider of the bearer telecommunication services and the VPN customers have no control over these resources. The increasing importance of the broadband communication infrastructure in corporate operations and transactions is stressing the requirement for a customizable configuration, operation and management of VPN services. First, this paper discusses the evolution of VPN environments towards customized VPN configurations and goal-driven management of these VPNs. VPN service characteristics and management requirements are analyzed.
