Comparative analysis on virtual private network in the internet of things gateways

Abstract

A virtual private network (VPN) connects a private network to the internet, primarily the public network, through a secure tunnel. Using a local area network (LAN) segment, users can send and receive data from their colleagues in different locations on the network. The development of VPN allows users to gain access to company applications and databases. Therefore, data can be transmitted through a secure tunnel without the need to configure port forwarding for the internet of things (IoT) gateway, allowing users to access it from any location in the world. A method such as dataplicity and pitunnel was examined to compare with the conventional setting. This research paper examines the current deployment of VPN connections in IoT gateways, discussing their characteristics, benefits, and drawbacks, as well as comparing them. The advantage of this method is that the IoT gateway is always accessible and has internet connectivity, w

A Generic High-Performance Architecture for VPN Gateways

“…Research on VPN gateways can be classified into three categories: solutions to network interconnections [15][16][17], assurance of security issues [18,19] and evaluations and improvements of network performance. Evaluations and improvements of network performance range from evaluations of VPN gateways [20][21][22][23][24] and hardware-accelerated VPN gateways [11,12,25,26] to improvements of software VPN gateways [13,[27][28][29].…”

Insights on the internet of things: past, present, and future directions

“…IoT is especially common in industrial, transportation, and utility companies that use sensors and other IoT devices. It has, however, discovered application cases for firms in the home automation, agricultural and infrastructure sectors, driving some to digital evolution [66], [91], [98], [100], [166]- [170].…”

“…To prevent delays in data relay to the server, its analysis, and the final signal to operate the 'thing,' data processing is performed near to the monitor and control system. 2) Gateways and data acquisition systems [43], [59], [66], [71], [113], [140], [158], [209]- [219] A data acquisition system (DAS) collects the data given by the sensors and converts it to a digital-analog format. The DAS combines and prepares this data before sending it to the next level of processing through Internet gateways such as wireless wide area network (WANs), such as cellular or wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi), or wired WANs.…”

“…The IoT apps that are installed have a significant influence on the connection, networking, and communication protocols that these web-enabled devices utilize. Machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) may also be used in IoT to simplify and dynamically acquire data [66]- [133].…”

“…The IoT enables individuals to live and work more effectively, as well as having total control over their life. IoT is critical for businesses, in addition to delivering smart gadgets for home automation [7], [58], [66], [73], [78], [122]. IoT provides organizations with a real-time perspective of how their systems are doing, providing insights into machine performance, supply chain, and logistical operations [71], [97].…”
