Abstract

The article focuses on analyzing influence of IBM i security mechanisms in network layer on general system performance. Impact of system’s security mechanisms on both system and network resources are presented. Additionally, special security metrics is presented to enable comparison of security level between different system configurations. General guidelines for using security mechanisms of IBM i are given. The paper concludes that because of deep integration of security mechanisms, no major impact on the overall system performance was observed. Propositions of further research are also given.
