RESEARCH OBJECTIVE: The key objective of the research is to find out the impact of enabling security protocols on the WLAN performance in a real test bed environment. The research has measured the 802.11ac WLAN performance with WLAN security protocols enabled and disabled. Moreover, this research has used the IPv4 as well as IPv6, with TCP/UDP pack...
In this paper, wireless 802.11ac client-server network with open system (no security) and WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) security is investigated. The results shows that, by implementing WPA2 security, TCP throughput of IPv4 and IPv6 on average decreased by 16.79% and 10.22% respectively. Throughput for UDP is decreased by 18.07% and 12.99% for IP...
