Summary: | In 1995, DARPA recognized the shortcomings of IP networks. As a response, the experts initiated a project that should become the cornerstone of new military communication architecture. The goal was a network that would be resistant to attack and to operate despite successful attacks, while allowing a secure sharing of data at all levels of command. The project was named Active Networks. However, it failed to meet performance and security criteria. We revisited this problem, identified performance and security bottlenecks so that we present an advance to fast, secure and scalable active network server - Smart Active Node. |
