Improve network performance using carefully developed quality-of-service policies.
Now that we are in a new year (wow, it is hard to believe it is 2018), I want to ask a simple question. With what you are trying to accomplish at work or in your career, what is your biggest challenge? Is it something only you can deal with or is it something that someone can help with? Would you consider this challenge a personal challenge for your own career goals, or is it a challenge that you are trying to solve to further your employer’s objectives?
I wouldn’t necessarily consider this my resolve for 2018. However, it is certainly an area that I will work hard to improve in this new year.

2018 offers exciting promise and opportunity for the Internet Society and the work of our global community for a better Internet. We’ll continue the positive momentum we started in 2017, when we celebrated our 25 year milestone and strengthened our impact around the globe.
Thank you to all who joined us on this amazing journey. Take a look back at many of last year’s highlights.
Our ongoing mission to protect and to shape the Internet for future generations is not an easy task. However, we are well positioned with the people, resources, and commitment from across our global community to be a bold, powerful force for change.
To carry forward our focus on access and trust as the two most pressing issues facing the Internet today, in 2018 we will execute our Action Plan that outlines our advocacy efforts in these areas with a detailed set of priorities for maximum impact. In addition, we will continue to extend our community and organization to build a stronger foundation for realizing our vision, and foster new initiatives that respond to today’s rapidly changing world.
While I have announced my plans to pass on the CEO baton once the Continue reading
We all know and love EVPN as a control plane for VXLAN tunnels over a layer 3 infrastructure (Need a refresher? Check out our blog post on the topic). EVPN gives us the ability to deploy VXLAN tunnels without controllers. Plus, it offers a range of other benefits such as reduction of data center traffic through ARP suppression, quick convergence during mobility, one routing protocol for both underlay and overlay and the inherent ability to support multi-tenancy (just to name a few). So EVPN for VXLAN for all of your layer 2 needs, right? Well it’s a little more complicated than that.
Customers need to also communicate between VXLANs and between a VXLAN tunnel and the outside world, so VXLAN routing must also be enabled in the network — which is what I cover in this post. Previous generation merchant silicon does not internally support VXLAN routing, so customers implement a workaround — adding an external loopback cable, sometimes called hyperloop, to the switch. The newer chips that support VXLAN routing allow us to route directly on the ASIC, eliminating the need for the hyperloop.
VXLAN routing can be performed with one of two architectures – centralized or distributed. Continue reading
Here are some pearls of wisdom (and surprises) said by top tech execs in 2017.
SD-WAN accounted for 19 percent of Windstream's Enterprise sales in Q3.
Network Engineering and coding, like many other things in the information technology world, share overlapping concepts—even if we don’t often recognize the overlap because we are too busy making up new names to describe the same thing. For this week’s video, I turn my attention to the Application Programming Interface, or the API.
A look at four noteworthy networking trends from last year that will have long-lasting impact.
