IPSEC: Strict Routing

Hello Cheli0sXG ,

In strict source routing, the manager specifies the path through all routers to reach the destination, while in loose source routing, a manager specifies an address that the packet must pass through on its way to the destination; loose source routing is what an attacker uses to steal data.

A VPN connection's speed is determined by the strength of the encryption, and 256-bit encryption is often slower than 128-bit encryption, which results in a faster VPN connection. Nevertheless, you should be aware that reducing the encryption strength could lead to increased vulnerability and make the VPN connection less secure.

The speed of a server is also determined by the least speed, so if a server has 100 mbps capacity, and the client only has 10 mbps capacity, then the speed will not exceed 10 mbps.
