3. Background

4. VPN ﻪWhat ’ s VPN. ﻩAn architecture to construct a virtual private connection across a public network. ﻪClassification by ﻩSite-to-Site VPN (usual) ﻩOverlay VPN

5. What ’ s Site-to-Site VPN ﻪWhat ’ s Site-to-Site VPN ﻩUsed for replace dedicated line. Tunnel

6. LAN LAN 2LAN 3 LAN 4 LAN 1 Overlay VPN ﻪWhat ’ s overlay VPN. ﻩConstructing VPN over overlay network. ﻩOverlay VPN is independent from existing network. 論理的に 等価 The Internet

7. Overlay VPN ﻪTopology ﻩClient/Server ﻪProblem ﻩRequire server ﻯCost, single point of failure, bottleneck. LAN The Internet LAN VPN The Internet VPN Company Branches Company Outside

8. The Issue ﻪCan we satisfy both of the following issues? 1.To secure connection between nodes directly. 2.Easy setting if there are many applications.

9. Proposal ﻪSystem that constructs a secure base between user nodes extemporarily. ﻪELA (Everywhere Local Area network)

10. ELA ～ Abstract ～

11. Abstract of ELA ﻪPurpose ﻩTo construct a secure base between user nodes ﻪMethod ﻩELA constructs an overlay VPN between user nodes extemporarily. VPN The Internet

12. Example of the Utility ﻪUse applications that user nodes connect each other directly ﻩInstant Messenger, Video Chat ﻪUse applications for LAN ﻩGroupware ﻩWindows Network, NFS ﻩSome network games ﻪAssumption ﻩAll user of nodes are acquaintance ﻩUnder 30 nodes.

13. The reason ELA constructs Overlay VPN ﻪThere are 3 reasons. ﻩNo modification of existing applications. ﻩLittle risk of security. ﻩIndependent network from unknown users.

14. Protocol Issue ﻪTransport Protocol used by VPN ﻩNodes in NAT connects other node with TCP easily. ﻩUDP is more simple protocol than TCP. ProtocolMeritDemerit TCPNode in NAT connects other node easily TCP over TCP UDPSimple and FastRequirement of port forward setting in NAT

15. Remarkable Points of ELA ﻪNetwork of ELA ﻩOverlay VPN ﻩP2P Topology ﻯ↑ ELA creates automatically. ﻪTunneling Protocol ﻩUse 2 protocols as a restrict of network. ﻯUDP if there is no restrict by NAT or firewall. ﻯTCP if node cannot use UDP.

16. ELA ～ Design ～

17. Image of ELA ﻪELA constructs a virtual network. ELA-VPN ↑Define this as ELA-VPN

18. Position of ELA ﻪELA relays a data over ELA-VPN ﻩUsers can use application like in LAN. ﻩELA replays a data via other node if necessary ELA Application The Internet ELA Data flow by ELA 10.0.0.110.0.0.210.0.0.3

19. Example of how ELA is used 1.Starting ELA ﻩType “ ela ”, and ELA requires user authorization. ﻩ “ ela0 ” network interface is created. 2.Communication using IP address of ELA-VPN ﻪFor example, a node uses samba and fetches the PDF file from other node. # smbclient \\\\10.0.0.3\\home -U sada Smb: \> get thesis.pdf # ela # ifconfig ela0 ela0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:10.0.0.1 P-t-P:10.0.0.1 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MTU:1400 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:10 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Step 1Step 2

20. Sequence of Start inside ELA 1.Preparation 2.Constructing ELA-VPN 3.Using ELA-VPN

21. 1. Preparation 1.Look up other node. ELA doesn ’ t have this future. Look up other node of ELA-VPN by using WWW or E-mail 2.User Authentication Nodes of ELA-VPN share list of users. Nodes authenticate a new node with list of users.

22. 1. Preparation 3.ELA assigns private IP address on ELA - VPN. New node can use IP address not used by the other nodes. 4.ELA classifies into 2 types. Core node (CN) ： The node can send and receive a data with UDP. The node can be connected from other nodes with TCP. Edge node (EN) ： Except CN. The node can connect to other nodes with TCP.

23. ２． Constructing ELA-VPN ﻪClockwise rotation by ID ﻩID = hash(IP address) ﻪCN: ﻩInside of P2P network. ﻩCNs make full mesh topology, and connects each other with UDP. ﻪEN: ﻩOutside of P2P network. ﻩEach EN connects to CN whose ID is next of the EN.

24. 3. Connection Over ELA-VPN ﻪAll core nodes share the routing table. ﻩKey: ID ﻩValue: ﻯIf CN, IP address on the Internet. ﻯIf EN, IP address on the Internet of Core Node that EN connects to.

25. Example of Relay ﻪNode 27→14 ﻩNode 27 : relay to 3 ﻩNode 3:search from routing table → relay to 16 ﻩNode 16: relay to 14 ﻪNumber of maximum relay is 3.
