Repository For Empirical Analysis of WireGuard vs OpenVPN in Cloud and Virtualised Environments

# VPN_TESTING

This release introduces the VPN testing automation tool (VPN_TEST) and the script used for visualization (VPN_VISUALISE) during our experiment. We also place alongside the results we got from our experiment.

The key features and capabilities our tools include:

Features

    Automated VPN Performance Testing:        Python measures throughput (TCP/UDP) using iperf3.        Captures latency using ping tests.        Monitors CPU and memory usage during tests.

    Network Simulation        Python simulates high-latency and packet-loss conditions using tc.

    Data Analysis & Visualization:        R generates detailed bar plots comparing WireGuard and OpenVPN performance metrics.        Visualizations include throughput, latency, CPU usage, and memory usage.

Improvements

    Provides repeatable and consistent test setups with configurable parameters.    Ensures more detailed result saving for deeper analysis.

Usage

    Run the tests for WireGuard and OpenVPN protocols and visualize performance comparisons    Ideal for benchmarking VPN protocols under varying network conditions.
