Episode 11 – Shaking The Status Quo
The network engineering community can get a bit stuck on ideas from time to time, and we take a stab at challenging some of these deeply held beliefs in Episode 11 of Network Collective. Join Ethan Banks, Mike Bushong, and the Network Collective crew as we talk about certifications, multi-vendor environments, orchestration, disaggregation, SDN, cloud, and the network industry hype cycle. Yeah, all of that in one 50 minute package. You’re not going to want to miss this one.

History Of Networking – Juliusz Chroboczek – Babel Routing Protocol
Babel is a relatively new routing protocol when compared to some of the more well established options, but due to some of its design considerations, it is very well suited for routing on distributed mesh networks. Babel’s creator, Juliusz Chroboczek, joins the Network Collective team in discussing how Babel came about, some of the design decisions when creating it, and what the future looks like for this emerging technology.

Episode 10 – Grassroots Automation
In episode 10 we look at how to take the first steps towards automating your network. What tools should you use? Should you learn a programming language? And if so, which one? Should you buy or build your automation? Do you need to become a full fledged programmer in addition to being a network engineer? Our excellent panel of guests addresses all of the above and more!

History Of Networking – Daniel Walton – BGP Optimizations
In the late 1990s and early 2000s, BGP had some serious scaling issues that threatened it’s effectiveness as a protocol that could be used for the global routing table. Significant efforts were made to optimize the resource utilization and convergence time. Our guest in this episode, Daniel Walton, was part of that effort at Cisco and shares his story about the BGP optimizations that were put in place during that time. The optimizations include Peer groups, READONLY mode, update groups, update packing, and MRAI. Sometimes these optimizations, increased capability by 100x previous versions of the code.

Episode 9 – What Your Mamma Never Told You About OSPF
As a continuation of our deep dives into routing protocols, this episode of Network Collective takes a closer look at OSPF. What does graph theory, CAP theorem, and distributed databases have to do with routing? What exactly is that type 4 LSA for? What is OSPF really good for? These and other questions are discussed by our guests Russ White and Nick Russo.

Episode 8 – Wireless Misconceptions
For many the world of wireless networking is a world that is dark and full of terrors, but it doesn’t have to be that way. In this episode of Network Collective, the panel reveals many of the most common wireless networking misconceptions so you too can be a wizard in the black art of RF. I promise, no RF math was used in the filming of this episode.
