%0 Journal Article %T A New Approach To Enhance Security In Mpls Network %A S.Veni %A G.M.Kadhar Nawaz %J Advanced Computing : an International Journal %D 2012 %I Academy & Industry Research Collaboration Center (AIRCC) %X As Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is becoming a more widespread technology For providing virtual private network (VPN) services, MPLS architecture security is of increasing concern to service providers (SPs) and VPN customers. MPLS suffers from a number of security issues as soon as an attacker successfully penetrates the core. This paper provides an approach to enhance security in MPLS network by integrating a new (k,n) Threshold Secret Sharing scheme with MPLS in which shares obtained are send over multiple disjoint paths. Our approach is implemented to measure time overhead on secrets packet transmission. %K MPLS %K Security %K Threshold Secret sharing %K LSP. %U http://airccse.org/journal/acij/papers/0512acij08.pdf
