The safety analysis of IPSec based on IPv6 protocal

Abstract

With the popularity of the network, the current internet protocol IPv4 has been exposed more and more problems, IPv6 as the new internet protocol arises at the historic moment. The new generation of internet protocol IPv6 serves as the next generation of the internet standard, IPSec will also serve as the network security standard to enforce in IPv6. This paper analysises the satety of IPSec protocol, in the IPSec security architecture, using Authentication Headers protocols AH and Encapsulating Security Payload protocol ESP can successfully carry out security package for packets, the transmission mode and tunnel mode of AH and ESP allow the application methods of IPSec more flexible. This paper make policy configuration for IPSec in IPv6 protoocal, and verified by the network sniffer software the security of IPSec provided.
