IPSec과 L2TP를 이용한 VPN과 EDI 시스템의 연동

Interface of EDI System and VPN with IPSec and L2TP

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between a number of companies goes on increasing on the internet. Although a conventional EDI system reduces business process efforts, time, resources, etc., important information is easily and frequently exposed by well trained hackers and crackers, which inflict a severe loss on the company and even put the company under a crisis. This study integrates the conventional EDI system and Virtual Private Net (VPN) to maximize an overall efficiency of speed and security in data transaction by the level of importance. The EDI system properly interfaced to IPSec and L2TP of VPN allows us to select two modes: the one focuses on a high speed with a low or a medium level security or the other does on a high level security with a low or a medium level speed. Both the company and the end users get a lot of tangible and intangible advantages by integrating the EDI system and VPN.
