Show 282: Why We’re Stuck With Middleboxes And How To Improve Them
Middleboxes--that is, non-routing and non-switching network devices such as firewalls and caches--can be expensive, hard to manage, and prone to failure. But they're also widely deployed, and show no signs of going away. Today's Weekly Show episode goes deep on middleboxes to explore why these devices have proliferated, and find ways to make them more reliable and easier to manage.

Change control isn’t so bad. With the underlying goal of risk mitigation, good change control can save a network engineer from the dreaded resume generating event we sweat over during cutovers. Change management frameworks such as ITIL layer an element of bureaucracy over network operations to provide a basis for a quantitative approach to IT […]
