Sample text

L2TP/IPSec connections require the same user-level authentication and, in addition, computer-level authentication using computer certificates. The computer-level authentication is usually in the form of certificates that allow the IPSec protocol to set up encryption prior to data passing through the tunnel. Strong Password Methodology Dictionary attacks occur when a hacker captures packets encrypted with the password hash and runs a program to try to crack that encryption against “well known” dictionary words.

VPN Administration In selecting a VPN technology, it is important to consider administrative issues. Large networks need to store per-user directory information in a centralized data store, or directory service, so that administrators and applications can add to, mod­ ify, or query this information. Each access or tunnel server could maintain its own internal database of per-user properties, such as names, passwords, and dial-in permission attributes. However, because it is administratively prohibitive to maintain Chapter 2 VPN Overview multiple user accounts on multiple servers and keep them simultaneously current, most administrators set up an account database at the directory server or primary domain controller, or on a RADIUS server.
