Can somebody give me an idea of how this secure tunnel network architecture is deployed? Can I configure my windows computer to optimize the functioning of the tunnel network? Is this concept applicable to web networking or can I apply some of the principles to a small scale LAN network?
Secured tunnel is the process by which the data are transmitted over the network. Especially in the Internet data transfer. Each bit of information originate from a computer passes through different network devices like modems / switches / routers etc. From the source point to the destination point, in between, there is many inter related networks which check the data loss / encryption / security and many things are involved. When tunneling is done, the originated data is reached in the destination in a well secured manner with 100% accuracy.
Windows computer can not be configured for tunneling. Tunneling is done in a network device called ' ROUTERS '. The routers have its own commands to be programmed.
Tunneling is mostly done in a WAN environment which need the data from one office to be transmitted over the public network like Internet. Tunneling is not mostly done in a LAN environment.
