Abstract

This paper presents the analysis and experimental results for an evaluation of the performance of a Virtual Private Network (VPN) implementation over an IEEE 802.11b wireless infrastructure. The analysed performance measures comprises of application throughput, packet loss, round-trip delay and jitter. Furthermore, the contribution of the CPU, inter-packet generation rate, payload data size, and the number of simultaneously operating VPNs are investigated. The overall results and analysis of the investigations reflect the degree of contribution of the CPU processing power, payload data size, and packet generation rate on the performance of such VPN tunnel implementations.
