Abstract
The Tunnel Broker is to provide dedicated servers and to automatically manage tunnel requests coming from the users. This approach is useful to stimulate the growth of IPv6 interconnected hosts and to provide easy access to their IPv6 networks. However, the existing tunnel broker is vulnerable to attacks of malicious users about network resources and services. Therefore, to solve the secure problem of tunnel broker, this paper presents secure IPv6 tunnel broker based on TSP(Tunnel Setup Protocol). The clients and the tunnel broker are communicated based on SHTTP(Secure HTTP) and the XML message of plain text is converted to XML signature by encryption and decryption. finally, Clients and tunnel server use the IPsec method to protect the important information.
