DETAILED SESSION DESCRIPTIONS Keynote Address - Becoming An eGovernment, 8:00 8:45a.m. This will discuss the technology changes that have made true eBusiness possible. Walker White, from Oracle, will then give some real world examples of how folks can get started in their organizations by reaping the benefits of information technologies (Broader access at reduced cost) in the Internet Age. Session 001 VPN/IPSEC, 9:00 -10:15 a.m. Level 2 This seminar will introduce the fundamental concepts and protocols associated with network layer security and tunneling. Seminar topics will include an exploration of encryption protocols (DES/3DES), hashing algorithms (MD5/SHA), digital signatures (HMAC/RSA/DSA), and IPSec transport modes as they apply to network-layer VPNs. Session 002 Design for High Availability Network, 9:00 -10:15 a.m. Level 2 This presentation discusses the elements of high availability networking and availability management. Following an introduction on the elements of availability and availability definitions, the discussion moves to theoretical availability calculation and measuring availability. Leading causes of unavailability are then discussed in more detail with measurement and improvement guidelines. Session 003 Implementing QoS in a VoIP Architecture, 9:00 -10:15 a.m. Level 3 This course will provide techniques for implementing end-to-end QoS that is required for a successful VoIP deployment. This will require a base knowledge of IOS, CatOS, Cisco products and QoS theories that apply to each. Session 004 Enterprise Campus/WAN IP Telephony Design and Implementation, 10:30 -11:30 a.m. Level 2 A description of the systems components, deployment models, design considerations, and legacy migration strategies. Session 005 CDN Content Networking, 10:30-11:30 a.m. Level 2 This session will provide an overview of the products that enable Content Deliver Networks (CDNs), including Cisco's Caching and Load Balancing solutions. It will also cover new products from the SightPath and Arrowpoint acquisitions. This will provide a better understanding of the networking issues encountered in content delivery. Session 006 Multicast, 10:3012:00 p.m. Level 3 This overview will cover deploying multicast within an enterprise environment. Issues regarding the operation of both dense and sparse modes of the PIM protocol will be covered. This will include RFP forwarding, flood and prune, joining the shared tree, and registering sources.
