Network Next: Networking in 2010
9:15 - 10:30 am, Salon 1
Presented by David Bailey

It's 2010! Are you still running on a network designed last century? List of obsolete ideas and methods: firewalls, port-based VLANs, wireless site surveys, the three-tiered network design model (core, distribution, access), routers, CSU/DSUs, and more. Come see us toss out the old ways and find out how to save money, design performance, reliability, security, and unlimited services through modern methods. We'll talk about integrating security across the network, cloud computing where resources are not hosted locally, and reliable, high-speed multi-use networks whether wired, wireless, or even 3G mobile data, and getting ready for 10 gigabit and even 100 gigabit links. Attendees receive a free flash drive filled with information from market leading technologies and free network security and planning tools!

Services in a Serverless Network
10:45 am - 12 Noon, Salon 1
Presented by David Bailey

Microsoft Windows Server has been redesigned from the ground up. Novell NetWare is end-of-life. Linux options offer most commercial platform features without licensing costs. Virtualization and cloud computing make server hardware obsolete. Getting to information and services have become commoditized regardless of device (laptop, desktop, handheld, or phone), platform (Windows, Mac, Linux), or network (LAN, WAN, wireless, 3G). Find out how to survive the next generation of services and clients with strategies for migration, ways to accommodate modern platforms such as Windows 7, Linux, and iPhones, and free and low-cost ways to offer services without even plugging in hardware. Attendees receive a free flash drive filled with information about next generation services platforms, demo next-generation operating systems and accounts, and migration strategies and tools!
