BBLISA will return from it's summer hiatus. BBLISA will return on September 14, 2011 with: Title: Converged Networks, Voice / Video / Storage / Data Speaker: Ryan Sutton Location: E51-376 Date: Wednesday September 14, 2011 at 7PM. How do you keep everything running smoothly while giving technologies that require low or constant latency what they need and still be able to watch that dog skateboarding on YouTube. Will discuss how Quality of Service (QoS) works on both Layer 2 and Layer 3 devices and why you probably need both. How should traffic be tagged and retagged with policy decisions. If time permits we may even have some time to go into why net neutrality isn't as cut and dry as you may think. Technical details will be based off of Cisco devices but most concepts will translate to any modern equipment. Our speaker, Ryan Sutton, is a Systems Engineer at a local Gold Certified Cisco Partner. Ryan specializes in large scale Routing and Switching, Voice, and Data Center designs and implementations. His solutions often include interworking between multiple networking vendors and technologies. Current projects include sub-second core convergence, and multi-city/multi-vendor VoIP installations. I hope to see you there. -- -- rouilj John Rouillard =========================================================================== My employers don't acknowledge my existence much less my opinions. _______________________________________________ bblisa-announce mailing list bblisa-announce@bblisa.org http://www.bblisa.org/mailman/listinfo/bblisa-announce
