Case Study
 
Wipro develops IPSec support for network modeling yool, client develops time-to-market advantage
 
 
The Client

The client is a North American Datacom Equipment vendor

 
The challenge
The client requirements including plugging of IPSec VPN feature into the Network Modeling Tool, providing support for configuration integrity reports, pathing information for the secure packet and troubleshooting support in the Intelligent Engine. Identifying different network scenarios due to erroneous configuration and providing solution to fix the same was part of the challenge.
 
Wipro solution
The Wipro Team did a comprehensive product analysis before proceeding with the development of the solution.

The Product – The Network Modeling Tool models the entire network by uploading the network configuration. The tool computes the routing tables, checks for configuration integrity across devices and provides pathing information between nodes. The administrator can analyze the network behavior off-line by changing the configuration in the tool. An expert-system based Intelligent Engine in the tool (if present) is capable of providing alternate solutions for fixing problems in the network.

A thorough knowledge engineering of the IPSec VPN behavior was done by building an IPSec lab to analyze the network behavior for different possible configurations. A robust design was used for implementing IPSec VPN feature so that the existing functionality of the tool was maintained.

The new functionality provided for IPSec includes
Enhancements to Pathing analysis
Intelligent Engine (and thereby benefits explained above)
Configuration Integrity Reports

A team of two 2 developers working on this feature for 6 months could accomplish the task on hand.

 
Benefits
The customer could leverage on the vast networking expertise of Wipro team to develop a high-end feature like IPSec with requisite quality standards
IPSec being an evolving technology, the IPSec VPN feature in the Network Modeling tool gave time to market advantage to the customer
