Abstract

Virtual private network (VPN) not only possesses the low cost, inexpensive fees, and excellent support advantages of the Internet, it also has the benefit of the security as the leased line. How to properly manage the VPN is an issue in which the enterprise IT engineers have to take seriously. This research is based on the new network management technologies such as policy-based network management, mobile agent, etc., to design a VPN monitor and management system architecture that contains high level management with low network traffic load. This system architecture integrates both VPN devices and general network devices, such the feature can integrate the monitor and manage the VPN and Intranet at the same time. The result of this research provides enterprises with a VPN architecture for monitoring and managing the enterprises, as well as to establish a prototype for the enterprise VPN monitor and management system. Such system architecture can effectively assist the semiconductor companies to monitor and manage their enterprise VPN in order to utilize the Internet resources, and to reduce the possible operation off time. The prototype system could proof the feasibility of the systematic architecture, it can automatically detect and activate the backup mechanism according to the preset management policy, and to achieve the effective and fast solution for the enterprise network problems.
