SGSN Functions – IPSec and LLC Encryption


IPSec
-The SGSN9810 encrypts the Gn/Gp interface signaling through IPSec.
-IP security (IPSec) is layer 3 encryption protocol developed by the IETF.
- It ensures the security of the data transmission  through encryption and authentication.
LLC Encryption
-In the 2.5G system, the logical link control (LLC) layer encryption between the MS and the SGSN is the traditional stream encryption.
- The algorithm is the GEA1 and GEA2 algorithm whereby the data to be encrypted includes the information field and the authentication field carried by the LLC frame.
