A look at how the new 802.11ad WiFi standard compares with its predecessors, 802.11ac and 802.11ax.
In the second half of his Networks, Buffers and Drops webinar JR Rivers focused on end systems: what tools could you use to measure end-to-end TCP throughput, or monitor performance of an individual socket or the whole TCP stack?
You’ll need at least free ipSpace.net subscription to watch the video.
Network programmability and network automation go hand-in-hand (pun intended) and I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to play with the Juniper IDL (.proto) files to build a JET (Juniper Extension Toolkit) application. Thanks to Marcel Wiget’s efforts, the opening I’ve been waiting for came along!
JET is a couple of things:
JET allows you to program Junos out of the normal NETCONF, CLI, SNMP and ephemeral DB methods that we’re all fairly used to. The other thing is, it’s quick. Like really quick. With GRPC and MQTT, we can program a network element using mechanisms the software world is used to. I’ve been saying for a long time our data is no longer our own and JET allows us to bridge organisational worlds in multiple ways. Pretty cool.
Not having a huge amount of time for this, I opted for off-box and took Marcel’s code as the base for how to use the APIs exposed via GRPC.
The application uses the “bgp_route_service” JET API Continue reading
