Description
Part-A
Students are advised to carefully study the given scenario and complete three tasks based on this
scenario.
A network administrator is provided a solution for a small company that has setup Internet
connectivity using two Linksys WRVS4400N business class routers. One is located at the Central site
and the other at the Branch site. They would like to access resources between sites but are
concerned that the Internet traffic would not be secure. To address their concern, it has been
suggested that they implement a site-to-site VPN between the two sites. A VPN would enable the
Branch site office to connect to the Central site office securely by creating a VPN tunnel, which would
encrypt and decrypt data.
Solve these tasks
Task 1- Define VPN technology and its benefits.
Task 2- Components of VPN .
Task 3- Characteristics of secure VPN .
Part B
You are working with AOL ISP which is a USA based ISP and provides Frame Relay based WAN
connections. For attracting different type of customer AOL design a summery document of Frame
relay technology. Task to design that specific document is assigned to you. Following points must be
considered during design phase.
1. Definition of Frame Relay.
2. Benefits of Frame Relay .
3. Virtual Circuit and DLCI no.
4. Frame Relay topologies .
5. Frame relay address mapping .
6. Configuration of Frame Relay.
7. Select one or more than one published paper (preferably from the ACM DL or IEEE CSDL)
that/those is/are discussing one aspect of Frame Relay. Summarize this paper in one page.
The summary should include the main ideas presented in the paper. The paper you select
MUST NOT BE DISCUSSED BY ANOTHER STUDENT.

Summary
The paper “Optimal Relay-Destination...Selection Mechanism for Secure
Communications...Wireless Cooperative Relay Networks” by Pinchang Zhang is listed in the
ACL library. It was written after the 2016 Global Conference on Network Applications and
Networking in Japan. The resolutions argued in the paper are summarized below.
In the digitized economy, frame relay is being used as a standard for businesses in a wide
area network to portray the physical and logical topographies of communication. In the recent
technology, frame relay is being used in voice transmission over a wide area network. This
feature makes it implementable in organizations given that it also has a variety of other features.
According to the set standards, any client in the network will be assigned a private connection to
the hub of a frame relay.
The framework of the frame relay ensures transmission of data. When contrasted to other
technologies such as ATM, it is found to be relatively cheaper. Data is transmitted in HDLC
packets mostly termed as frames. Each circuit is allocated a slot, and they are popularly referred
to as permanent virtual circuits. Theses circuits are logical channels that connect the end users.
The purpose of the virtual circuits is to ensure there is consistency in quality. It is considered to
VOIP and video conferencing given that it does not perform any remedies.
Additionally, a Frame Relay Assembler Disassembler is a system gadget that assembles
and disassembles frames. An example is the DCB SR protocol that fragments packets in an
efficient correspondence circuit. A Data Link Connection Identifier is more than a figure for the
virtual. It is used to pass the fragmented information from one framework to another.
Pinchang Zhang asserts that frame relay is a cost effective alternative to wide area
networks and it is gaining popularity among the business community.
