Explanation:
IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) has two modes: Transport mode and Tunnel mode.Tunnel mode is used to create a secure connection tunnel between two endpoints (e.g., two gateways, or a client and a gateway) and it encapsulates the entire IP packet.This mode not only protects the payload but also the header information of the original IP packet, thereby providing a higher level of security compared to Transport mode, which only protects the payload.ReferenceKent, S. and Seo, K., 'Security Architecture for the Internet Protocol,' RFC 4301, December 2005.'IPsec Services,' Microsoft TechNet.
