Method and apparatus for a secure communications session with a remote system via an access-controlling intermediate system

TL;DR: In this article, a security protocol entity (20 ) is provided that includes a mechanism for enabling a first party (11 ) to communicate securely with a second party (60 ) through an access-controlling intermediate party (13 ) by nesting within a first security session (64 ) established with the intermediate party(13 ) a second security session with the second party(60 ).

Mobile IP and wide area wireless data

TL;DR: This paper illustrates a network consisting of a GSM general packet radio service (GPRS) air interface and a Mobile IP backbone network, and shows which elements of each network may be re-used, combined, or eliminated to provide a single, unified network.

Implementation of an FPGA based accelerator for virtual private networks

TL;DR: In order to improve the performance of the Free Secure Wide Area Network, a field programmable gate array (FPGA) based triple-DES accelerator was built on a reconfigurable computing development platform called Pilchard and achieved a throughput of more than 120 Mb/sec for triple- DES in cipher-block chaining mode.

Applications of Coloured Petri Nets for Functional Validation of Protocol Designs

TL;DR: The practical application of CPNs for protocol validation is illustrated by focusing on selected aspects of four recent projects involving industrial-sized protocols, and how behavioural visualisation in combination with a CPN model provides an effective way of rapidly constructing an executable prototype of a protocol design.

Implementation and assessment of modern host-based multipath solutions

TL;DR: These efforts show that Ipv6 host-based multihoming solution (Shim6) and Multipath TCP can both be efficient and can co-exist elegantly with existing protocols and operating systems architectures.

New Directions in Cryptography

TL;DR: This paper suggests ways to solve currently open problems in cryptography, and discusses how the theories of communication and computation are beginning to provide the tools to solve cryptographic problems of long standing.

Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels

S. Bradner
TL;DR: This document defines these words as they should be interpreted in IETF documents as well as providing guidelines for authors to incorporate this phrase near the beginning of their document.

Using encryption for authentication in large networks of computers

TL;DR: Use of encryption to achieve authenticated communication in computer networks is discussed and example protocols are presented for the establishment of authenticated connections, for the management of authenticated mail, and for signature verification and document integrity guarantee.

Internet Protocol, Version 6 (IPv6) Specification

S. Deering, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors specify version 6 of the Internet Protocol (IPv6), also referred to as IP Next Generation or IPng, and propose a new protocol called IPng.

Internet Protocol

J. Postel
TL;DR: Along with TCP, IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols and has two primary responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an internetwork; and providing fragmentation and reassembly of data links to support data links with different maximum transmission unit (MTU) sizes.
