Policy-Based Automation of Dynamique and Multipoint Virtual Private Network Simulation on OPNET Modeler

The simulation of large-scale networks is a challenging task especially if the network to simulate is the Dynamic Multipoint Virtual Private Network, it requires expert knowledge to properly configure its component technologies. The study of these network architectures in a real environment is almost impossible because it requires a very large number of equipment, however, this task is feasible in a simulation environment like OPNET Modeler, provided to master both the tool and the different architectures of the Dynamic Multipoint Virtual Private Network. Several research studies have been conducted to automate the generation and simulation of complex networks under various simulators, according to our research no work has dealt with the Dynamic Multipoint Virtual Private Network. In this paper we present a simulation model of the Dynamic and Multipoint Virtual Private network in OPNET Modeler, and a WEB-based tool for project management on the same network.
