GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP) is a group of IP-based communications protocols used to carry general packet radio service (GPRS) within GSM, UMTS and LTE networks.
Roughly speaking, tunneling protocols operate at the transport layer, such as carrying non-IP protocols such as IBM's SNA or Novell's IPX over an IP network, or end-to-end encryption with IPsec.
Shiva Smart Tunneling, also referred to as SST is a simplistic UDP-based VPN tunneling protocol developed by Shiva Corp. (whose assets are now owned by Eicon) for its Shiva series VPN gateways.
