Hi Anantha As per the RFC, MLS implemented network is where, security policies are applied based on the sensitivity classification of the data.
For example, let's have the following classification of data: Home user data Corporate data Government data Defense data The IP header will carry this classification tag and based on this tag, IPSec should apply the policy. For example home user data should get less strength encryption while government should get higher straight. Also it seems IPv6 will have the most use of this MLS than IPv4. This is what I understood reading the RFC :-) With regards Kings On Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 11:01 PM, Anantha Subramanian Natarajan < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi All, > > I was going through the RFC 2401(Security Architecture for IP -- IPSEC) > and trying to figure out a practical example or even trying to understand > the MLS(Multi-level security) referred in the RFC with respcet to IPSEC . > > Thank you for the great help > > Regards > Anantha Subramanian Natarajan > > _______________________________________________ > For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please > visit www.ipexpert.com > >
