The main research question is:
“Which combination of IPSec algorithm and operating system give the best network performance when measured for TCP/UDP traffic?”
The sub questions that need to be answered are:
Does TCP/UDP network performance vary when implemented on a different client operating system on a Local Area Network?
Does TCP/UDP network performance vary when implemented on a different server operating system on a Local Area Network?
Which client operating system gives the best performance for IPSec cryptographic algorithm when measured for TCP/UDP traffic types?
Which server operating system gives the best performance for IPSec cryptographic algorithm when measured for TCP/UDP traffic types?
