Abstract :
The impact of WPA2 security-bandwidth trade-off for IPv4 and IPv6 on wireless 802.11n network implementing Windows 7-Windows Server 2008 is investigated. The highest point of difference between open system and WPA2 for UDP was noticed at packet size 1408 bytes where IPv4 provided 31.48 Mbps and IPv6 provided 24.33 Mbps higher throughput in the open environment. The performance of IPv4 and IPv6 are also compared.
