<h3 id="vpncon">Virtual private network</h3>
|
||
|
|
<p>A virtual private network (VPN) allows your company to extend
|
||
|
|
its private intranet over a public network. It is based on creating virtual
|
||
|
|
secure tunnels between hosts or gateways connected to the public network.
|
||
|
|
To participate in a secure tunnel or VPN connection, the VPN tunnel end point
|
||
|
|
must implement a compatible suite of VPN protocols. VPN provides the following
|
||
|
|
security functions:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Data origin authentication to verify that each datagram was originated
|
||
|
|
by the claimed sender.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Data integrity to verify that the contents of a datagram were not changed
|
||
|
|
either deliberately or due to random errors.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Data encryption to ensure message text confidentiality.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Replay protection to ensure that an attacker cannot intercept data and
|
||
|
|
play it back at some later date.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Key management to ensure that your VPN policy can be implemented throughout
|
||
|
|
the extended network with little or no manual configuration.</li></ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>The Universal Connection builds a VPN connection to IBM®, in some scenarios, to ensure that the
|
||
|
|
information sent and received between your iSeries™ server and IBM is safe (for example, VPN encrypts and
|
||
|
|
authenticates data). The VPN technologies used by the Universal Connection
|
||
|
|
include L2TP, IKE, and IPSec. See the following topics for details, <a href="../rzaja/rzajal2tpprotocol.htm">Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol (L2TP)</a>, <a href="../rzaja/rzajaimplicitike.htm">Implicit IKE</a>, and <a href="../rzaja/rzajaipsec.htm">IP Security (IPSec) protocols</a>. For some of
|
||
|
|
the connectivity options, the Universal Connection uses L2TP alone for those portions of the
|
||
|
|
connection that do not require encryption. For example, if you are connecting
|
||
|
|
from one partition to another partition and then out across the Internet to IBM,
|
||
|
|
the Universal Connection strictly uses L2TP between the partitions and then uses L2TP protected
|
||
|
|
by IPSec for the second portion of the connection (that portion requiring
|
||
|
|
encryption).</p>
