DNS privacy will receive a large focus in the latter half of the IETF 102 week with attention in the DPRIVE, DNSSD, and OPSEC working groups. In an interesting bit of scheduling (which is always challenging), most of the DNS sessions are Wednesday through Friday. As part of our Rough Guide to IETF 102, here’s a quick view on what’s happening in the world of DNS.
Given that IETF 102 is in Montreal, Canada, all times below are Eastern Daylight Time (EDT), which is UTC-4.
The “DNS team” has become a regular feature of the IETF Hackathons and the Montreal meeting is no different. The IETF 102 Hackathon wiki outlines the work that will start tomorrow (scroll down to see it). Major security/privacy projects include:
Anyone is welcome to join the DNS team for part or all of that event.
The DNS sessions at IETF 102 start on Wednesday morning from 9:30am – 12noon with the DNS Operations (DNSOP) Working Group. Paul Wouters and Ondrej Sury Continue reading
According to Gartner research, there are more than 60 SD-WAN vendors, and 90 percent of them offer little or no security. Fortinet’s SD-WAN has a single controller to manage both the security and the other SD-WAN features.

The U.S. Justice Department appeals the AT&T-Time Warner merger; Tintri files for bankruptcy in the U.S., shutters in Europe; Ericsson divests Swedish field services operation.
Some companies and governments are now offering as much as $250,000 to find and fix security flaws, according to the Hacker-Powered Security Report.
Programmable chips will play a key role in 5G networks because complex processing will be necessary in the baseband and the base station.
This is a 2 and a half hour introductory course in Machine Learning. It’s taught by Yogesh Kulkarni, a practitioner and instructor in the field of Machine learning.

In this sponsored Network Collective Short Take, Pete Lumbis joins us to talk about how Cumulus Networks is offering a new disaggregated approach to network operations. There are some common concerns when it comes to a disaggregated model and in this conversation we focus on how Cumulus is making support, operations, and procurement fit within the models and experiences you are used to. All of this while still empowering engineers to take advantage of the power and flexibility that Cumulus Linux has to offer.

In case you haven’t noticed recently, there are a lot of people that have been going to work for vendors and manufacturers of computer equipment. Microsoft has scored more than a few of them, along with Cohesity, Rubrik, and many others. This is something that I see frequently from my position at Tech Field Day. We typically hear the rumblings of a person looking to move on to a different position early on because we talk to a great number of companies. We also hear about it because it represents a big shift for those who are potential delegates for our events. Because going to a vendor means loss of their independence. But what does that really mean?
When people go to work for a manufacturer of a computing product, the necessarily lose their independence. But that’s not the only case where that happens. You can also not be truly independent if you work for reseller. If your company specializes in Cisco and EMC, are you truly independent when discussion Juniper and NetApp? If you make your money by selling one group of products you’re going to be unconsciously biased toward them. If you’ve been burned or had Continue reading
Artificial intelligence is poised to transform enterprise data centers, but organizations need to take a practical approach.
Today on the Packet Pushers Priority Queue, we get nerdy about disaggregation, where you mix and match software from one vendor and hardware from another.
Our sponsor today is Cisco, and if you just did a double-take, that s right, Cisco wants to talk to you about disaggregation, but there’s more to it than just hardware/software separation.
Joining us are Bhavna Prasad, Product Manager at Cisco; and Akshat Sharma, Technical Marketing Engineer for Cisco s Service Provider BU.
We discuss the different kinds or degrees of disaggregation, and then drill into specifics around IOS-XR.
We also look at the programmatic capabilities and interfaces of IOS-XR, what hardware it’s available on, use cases, and more.
