The Pug is a breed of dog with a wrinkly, short-muzzled face, and curled tail. The breed has a fine, glossy coat that comes in a variety of colours, most often fawn or black, and a compact square body with well-developed muscles.
Pugs were brought from China to Europe in the sixteenth century and were popularized in Western Europe by the House of Orange of the Netherlands, and the House of Stuart.In the United Kingdom, in the nineteenth century, Queen Victoria developed a passion for pugs which she passed on to other members of the Royal family. Pugs are known for being sociable and gentle companion dogs.[3] The breed remains popular into the twenty-first century, with some famous celebrity owners. A pug was judged Best in Show at the World Dog Show in 2004.
Donald J. Trump For President, Inc. –– Why Now?
On November 8, 2016, the American People delivered a historic victory and took our country back. This victory was the result of a Movement to put America first, to save the American economy, and to make America once again a shining city on the hill. But our Movement cannot stop now - we still have much work to do.
This is why our Campaign Committee, Donald J. Trump for President, Inc., is still here.
We will provide a beacon for this historic Movement as our lights continue to shine brightly for you - the hardworking patriots who have paid the price for our freedom. While Washington flourished, our American jobs were shipped overseas, our families struggled, and our factories closed - that all ended on January 20, 2017.
This Campaign will be a voice for all Americans, in every city near and far, who support a more prosperous, safe and strong America. That’s why our Campaign cannot stop now - our Movement is just getting started.
Together, we will Make America Great Again!
Software Defined Network (SDN) using ASR9000 :: BRKSPG-2722 | San Diego 2015Bruno Teixeira
With the changing paradigm of network programmability using Software Defined Network (SDN), we are seeing new ways for monitoring, scaling and configuring network devices. With new network programability capabilities utilizing NETCONF, OpenFlow, BGP-LS, and PCEP it is vital for network architects and operations engineers to understand how these SDN related technologies can be leveraged to streamline the way we view, design, and operate our networks today. This session introduces these concepts and focuses on the use cases, implementation, and troubleshooting of these technologies on the ASR9000 platform.
An alternative to the core/aggregation/access layer network topology has emerged known as leaf-spine. In a leaf-spine architecture, a series of leaf switches form the access layer. These switches are fully meshed to a series of spine switches. One way is to create a Spine and Leaf architecture, also known as a Distributed Core. This architecture has two main components: Spine switches and Leaf switches. Intuition Systems can think of spine switches as the core, but instead of being a large, chassis-based switching platform, the spine is composed of many high-throughput Layer 3 switches with high port density. The mesh ensures that access-layer switches are no more than one hop away from one another, minimizing latency and the likelihood of bottlenecks between access-layer switches. When networking vendors speak of an Ethernet fabric, this is generally the sort of topology they have in mind.
Haven’t we spent the last few decades disaggregating datacenter architecture? And if so, what does disaggregation mean now, is it something different? Strictly speaking, to “disaggregate” means to divide
An experience is a personal and emotional event we remember. Every experience is established based upon pre-determined expectations we conceive and create in our minds. It’s personal, and therefore, remains a moving and evolving target in every scenario. When our experience concludes and the moment has passed, the outcome remains in our memory. Think about what makes you happy when connecting with your own device and then think about what makes you really upset when things are hard, complicated, and slow. If the user has a bad experience in anyone of these areas (simple, fast, and smart), they are likely to leave, share their negative experience, and potentially never return. Users might forget facts or details about their computing environment but they find it difficult to forgot the feeling behind a bad network experience. When something goes wrong with the network or an application, do you always get the blame?
Where Does Networking Fit In? To gain the full benefits of cloud computing and virtualization and achieve a business agile IT infrastructure, organizations need a reliable, high-performance data center networking infrastructure with built-in investment protection. Several technology inflection points are coming together that are fundamentally changing the way networks are architected, deployed and operated both in the public cloud as well as the private cloud. From performance, to scale, to virtualization support and automation to simplified orchestration, the requirements are rapidly changing and driving new approaches to building data center networks.
With Extreme Networks, IT can manage more with less. Automated intelligence and analytics for compliance, forensics, and traffic patterns translates into reduced help desk calls. Businesses can predict costs and return on investment, and increase employee productivity by securely onboarding BYOD, increasing both customer and employee satisfaction. A constant risk to the network, and ultimately the hospital, are unapproved applications and rogue devices that may appear on the network and either permit unauthorized access or interfere with other devices. A means to monitor all devices and applications that operate across the network is vital. Just as important are the audit and reporting capabilities necessary to report on who, what, where, when, and how patient data is accessed.
What is SDN? What software-defined networking really means has evolved dramatically and now includes automation and virtualization. Hardware is still a critical component in data center networking equipment, but the influence of switch software shouldn’t be overlooked. When everyone began to get excited about SDN a few years ago, we thought of it as only one thing: the separation of network control from network data packet handling. Traditional networks had already started down this path, with the addition of controller cards to manage line cards in scalable chassis-based switches, and with various data center fabric technologies. SDN took the idea to its logical end, removing the need for the controller and the packet handlers to be on the same backplane or even from the same vendor.
Cost. Reducing costs in the data center and contributing to corporate profitability is an increasingly important trend in today’s economic climate. For example, energy costs for the data center are increasing at 12% a year. Moreover, increased application requirements such as 100% availability necessitate additional hardware and services to manage storage and performance thus raising total cost of ownership.

The goal of the project “An optic’s life” is, to predict the time when an optical transceiver will reach its real end-of-life-time based on the actual setup in the datacenter / colocation.
The session begins with an overview on the basic impairments in a fiber based optical network. It will then cover what technologies are available to alleviate these linear and non-linear impairments. The fundamental components of DWDM (ie filters, optical amplifiers, lasers, & receivers) will also be covered. The basic design principles that go into designing DWDM networks will be discussed. Converged platforms based on OTN infrastructures have been introduced into the transport network recently and this will be covered. Lastly, innovations in DWDM transport such as 200G transmission, Flex Spectrum ROADM and control plane integration will be summarized.

Where is the 6 GHz beef?
The low number of channels available today forces users to share available bandwidth and creates congestion. As each client station waits to transmit (or receive) data, congestion is caused by devices, Access Points and Stations, sharing the same channel. To better describe the impact of 6GHZ wifi, let us borrow the catchphrase "Where is the beef?". As a visual aid, begin with a hamburger bun with a 2.4GHz and 5GHz spectrum in the middle. The picture below may exaggerate a 20 years spectrum limitation. However, the visual expresses the potential of the 6GHz range to deliver the spectrum beef.

The next generation ethernet gangster (part 3)Jeff Green
The original competitors in the Ethernet market remind me of gang members who each had their unique advantages to win over their turf. Over the past few years, Extreme assembled seven gangers from a variety of backgrounds with their strengths to perform a mission and deliver a new level of value to our customers. Extreme has adopted a gangster strategy going against the grain of the market leader. So far, the gangster strategy has been a winning strategy. When market leaders are proposing proprietary solutions, Extreme went open Linux with “superspec.” When they pushed DNA and its additional complexity, Extreme responded by re-thinking the way networks are designed, deployed, and managed without vendor lock-in. Final-ly, when they tied to service and to licensing together with Cisco One, Extreme responded with added flexibility in both licensing, services, and Extreme-as-a-service.

Places in the network (featuring policy)Jeff Green
Networks of the Future will be about a great user experience, devices and things…
In an industry that’s already defined, Extreme Network’s recent announcement of The Automated Campus is a significant advance in networking. For the first time, all the essential technologies, products, procedures and support are gathered together and integrated. All too often, the piecemeal/piecewise growth strategy, typically applied in network evolutions, results in too many tools, procedures, and techniques. The patchwork quilt approach precludes fast responsiveness, optimal operations staff productivity, and sacrifices the accuracy and efficiency required to keep end-users productive as well.
The most important opportunity to improve efficiency for governments today is in boosting both the productivity of end-users and network operators. The automated campus must address the productivity of network planners and network operations managers and staff. The often-significant number of elements required in an installation can demand significant staff time and can, consequentially, have an adverse impact on operating expenses (OpEx). While It is possible to build traditional networks that, when running correctly and optimally get the job done, they often embody such high operating expenses that cost becomes the overriding factor controlling the evolution of the campus network. The Automated Campus will allow XYZ Account to address all these issues and concerns. A key goal must be for XYZ Account to reduce the number of “moving parts” required to build and operate any campus and introduce a level of simplicity and automation that will address your future.
Extreme’s strategy for Campus Automation begins with re-thinking the way networks are designed, deployed and managed. Extreme’s Fabric-based networks enable faster configuration and troubleshooting; As a result, there is less opportunity for misconfiguration. Several automation solutions designed to enhance security often force network managers to accept complexity and degraded resilience to secure the network to meet local policies. Should a breach occur, containment to that segment protects even more sensitive parts of the network, resulting in a true dead-end for the hacker. With Extreme’s Automated Campus services can easily be defined and provisioned on-the-fly without disruption. Network operators specify what services are allowed or prohibited across the network.
The ubiquitous heavy-tailed distributions in the Internet im-plies an interesting feature of the Internet traffic: most (e.g. 80%) of the traffic is actually carried by only a small number of connections (elephants), while the remaining large amount of connections are very small in size or lifetime (mice). In a fair network environment, short connections expect rela-tively fast service than long connections. For these reasons, short TCP flows are generally more con-servative than long flows and thus tend to get less than their fair share when they compete for the bottleneck bandwidth. In this paper, we propose to give preferential treatment to short flows2 with help from an Active Queue Management (AQM) policy inside the network. We also rely on the pro-posed Differentiated Services (Diffserv) architecture [3] to classify flows into short and long at the edge of the network. More specifically, we maintain the length of each active flow (in packets3) at the edge routers and use it to classify incoming packets.
Fortinet Firewall Integration - User to IP Mapping and Distributed Threat Response
oAccurate User ID to IP mapping eliminates potential attacks and provides reliable, out of the box User Information to firewalls
oImproves security by blocking/limiting user access at the point of entry without impacting other users
oMore accurate network mapping for dynamic policy enforcement and reporting
In an industry that’s already defined, Extreme Network’s recent announcement of The Automated Branch is a significant advance in networking. For the first time, all the essential technologies, products, procedures and support are gathered together and integrated. All too often, the piecemeal/piecewise growth strategy typically historically applied in organizational network evolution results in too many tools, procedures, and techniques at work, precluding fast responsiveness, optimal operations staff productivity, and the degree of accuracy and efficiency required to keep end-users productive as well.
This reference design helps organizations design and configure a small to midsize data center (be¬tween 2 and 60 server racks) at headquarters or a server room at a remote site. You will learn how to configure the data center core, aggregation and access switches for connectivity to the servers and the campus network.
The Avaya Fabric Connect data center design supports high-speed 10 Gbps Ethernet connect-ed servers. The design can easily scale server bandwidth with link aggregation and servers can be connected to one or more switches in order to provide the level of availability required for the services delivered by the host. The design also supports legacy and low traffic servers that need 1 Gbps Ethernet connectivity,
The reference design presented in this guide is based on common network requirements and pro¬vides a tested starting point for network engineers to design and deploy an Avaya data center net¬work. This guide does not document every possible option and feature used to design and deploy networks but instead presents the tested and recommended options that will meet the majority of customer needs.
This design uses Avaya Fabric Connect in order to provide benefits over traditional data center design.
IT departments face several challenges in today’s data center:
· Data center traffic flow is not the same as campus traffic flow. Over 80% of the traffic is east-west, server-to-server, vs. north-south, client-to-server, like in a campus.
· Server virtualization allows a virtual machine or workload to be located anywhere in the physi¬cal data center. Data center networks can make it difficult to extend virtual local area networks (VLANs) and subnets anywhere in the data center.
· Server virtualization means that new services can be brought online in minutes or migrated in real time. Reconfiguring the network to support this is difficult because it can interrupt other services.
· Server virtualization means that the load on a physical box is much higher. Physical servers regularly host 10-50 workloads, driving network utilization well past 1 Gbps.
LANs are constantly evolving, build your XYZ Account Network with that baked-in…
Extreme Networks brings XYZ Account simplicity, agility, and optimized performance to your most strategic business asset. The data center is critically important to business operations in the enterprise, but often organizations have difficulty leveraging their data centers as a strategic business asset. At Extreme Networks, we focus on providing an Intelligent Enterprise Data Center Network that’s purpose-built for enterprise requirements. Our OneFabric Data Center Solution:
XoS “can be like an elastic Fabric” for XYZ Account Network…
Demand for application availability has changed how applications are hosted in today’s datacenter. Evolutionary changes have occurred throughout the various elements of the data center, starting with server and storage virtualization and network virtualization. Motivations for server virtualization were initially associated with massive cost reduction and redundancy but have now evolved to focus on greater scalability and agility within the data center. Data center focused LAN technologies have taken a similar path; with a goal of redundancy and then to create a more scalable fabric within and between data centers.
As vendors continue to tout networking architectures that decouple software from hardware, bare-metal switches are moving into the spotlight. These switches are built on merchant silicon deliver a lower-cost and more flexible switching alternative. Extreme Purple Metal switches are open enough to allow our customers to choose their network architecture based on their specific needs without going all the way to bare metal. We believe in the disaggregation of traditional enterprise networking. Extreme uses merchant silicon versus custom ASICs. Custom ASICs have fallen behind. Unless a vendor can build and compete against merchant silicon, there's no point in doing custom ASICs.
Audio video ethernet (avb cobra net dante)Jeff Green
AVB fits low-cost, small-form-factor products such as this microphone. The overall trend is that music no longer lives on shelves or in CD racks, but in hard drives in home computers, and increasingly in the cloud. This brings about its own unique problems, not in the encoding system used, or the storage technology, but in distributing the audio from the storage media to the speakers. AVB features are all enabled by a global and port level configuration. Connecting these elements is the AVB-enabled switch (in the graphic above, the Extreme Networks® Summit® X440.) The role of the switch is to provide support for the control protocols: AVB is Ethernet’s next stage of convergence, delivering pitch perfect audio and crystal clear video seamlessly over the network
IP/Ethernet is bringing simplicity and features to audio and video as it has brought to services like VoIP, Storage and many more
High quality, perfectly synchronized A/V until now has been difficult to maintain
Standards work by the IEEE and the AVB standard changes everything, creating interoperability and mass-marketing equipment pricing
Benefits of AVB - Delivers predictable latency and precise synchronization, maximizing the functionality of AV – time synchronization and quality or service
Reduced complexity and Ease of use through interoperability between devices
Streamlines complex network set-up and management, the Infrastructure negotiates and manages the network for optimal prioritized media transport
AV traffic can co-exist with non-AV traffic on same Ethernet infrastructure
Role based control at the XYZ Account - XYZ Account can identify devices and apply policies based on device type all the way down to the port and or the AP. Policies can dynamically change based on the device a user is connecting with and where that user is located. Extreme Networks provides infrastructure to deliver customizable prioritization and scalable capacity via configurable and built-in intelligence, ensuring a comprehensive, superior quality experience. Furthermore, when deployed with Extreme Wireless XYZ Account can configure the network to ensure applications receive the bandwidth they require, while still limiting or preventing high speed streaming of music of video or even games.
In an industry that’s already defined, Extreme Network’s recent announcement of The Automated Campus is a significant advance in networking. For the first time, all the essential technologies, products, procedures and support are gathered together and integrated. All too often, the piecemeal/piecewise growth strategy typically historically applied in organizational network evolution results in too many tools, procedures, and techniques at work, precluding fast responsiveness, optimal operations staff productivity, and the degree of accuracy and efficiency required to keep end-users productive as well.
The most important opportunity today is in boosting both productivity of end-users and network operators. The automated campus must address the productivity of network planners and network operations managers and staff. The often-significant number of elements required in an installation can demand significant staff time and can consequentially have an adverse impact on operating expenses (OpEx). While It is possible to build traditional networks that, when running correctly and optimally, get the job done – unfortunately, they often embody such high operating expenses that cost becomes the overriding factor controlling the evolution of the campus network overall. The Automated Campus will allow XYZ Account to address all these issues and concerns. A key goal here must be, of course, to reduce the number of “moving parts” required to build and operate any campus.
Extreme’s strategy for Campus Automation begins with re-thinking the way networks are designed, deployed and managed. Extreme’s Fabric-based networks enable faster configuration and troubleshooting; As a result, there is less opportunity for misconfiguration. Several automation solutions designed to enhance security often force network managers to accept complexity and degraded resilience to secure the network to meet local policies. Should a breach occur, containment to that segment protects even more sensitive parts of the network, resulting in a true dead-end for the hacker. With Extreme’s Automated Campus services can easily be defined and provisioned on-the-fly without disruption. Network operators specify what services are allowed or prohibited across the network.
XoS Performance - Separation between control and forwarding planes - The "SDN Classic" model, as illustrated by this graphic from the Open Networking Foundation, offers many potential benefits:
In the forwarding plane all switching, and feature implementation such as deep packet inspection , QoS scheduling, MAC learning and filtering, etc are performed in dedicated ASIC hardware
Wire speed performance across entire product line (Backplane resources, packet /frame forwarding rate, Bits per second throughput) Local switching on all line cards at no additional cost ,increasing throughput and reducing latency. Dedicated stacking interfaces, and stacking over fiber.
Low latency with Exceptional QoS
We build networks to deliver on today’s Experience Economy. Extreme Networks combines high performance wired and wireless hardware with a software-defined architecture that makes it simple, fast and smart for the user to connect with their device of choice. We provide a comprehensive portfolio, including Campus Mobility and Data Center solutions, which allow our customers to deliver a positive and consistent experience to each and every user in their environment. As SDN excitement grew, the term software-defined was adopted by marketers and applied liberally to all kinds of products and technologies: software-defined storage, software-defined security, software-defined data center.

NEW with EXOS 22.x and EOS 8.81: Future Fabric Technology
Extreme is rethinking the data plane, the control plane, and the management plane. Extreme is a better mouse trap which delivers new features, advanced function, and wire-speed performance. Our switches deliver deterministic performance independent of load or what features are enabled. All Extreme Switches are based on XOS, the industries first and only truly modular operating system. Having a modular OS provides higher availability of critical network resources. By isolating each critical process in its own protected memory space, a single failed process can not take down the entire switch. Application modules can be loaded and unloaded without the need for rebooting the switch. This is the level of functionality that users expect on other technology. Reaching the twenty million port milestone is a significant achievement demonstrating how our highly effective network solutions, with rich features, innovative software and integrated support for secure convergence. VoIP/Unified Communica Fons/Infrastructure/SIP Trunking (SBC) – Because of strong ROI, investment in this segment remains on a very strong growth trajectory.
Enterprises depend on modular switching solutions for all aspects of the enterprise network: in the enterprise core and data center, the distribution layer that lies between the core and wiring closet, and in the wiring closet itself. Modular solutions provide port diversity and density that fixed solutions simply cannot match. There are also high-capacity modular solutions that only the largest of enterprises and institutions use for high-density and high-speed deployments. Modular solutions are generally much more expensive than their fixed cousins, especially in situations where density or flexibility are not required. Fixed-configuration stackable switches are typically cost- optimized, but they offer no real port diversity on an individual switch. Port diversity means the availability of different port types, such as fiber versus copper ports. Stackable switches have gotten better at offering port diversity, but they still cannot match their modular cousins. Many of these products now offer high-end features such as 802.3af PoE, QoS, and multi-layer intelligence that were only found on modular switches in the past. This is due to the proliferation of third-party merchant silicon in the fixed configuration market. Generally, a stack of fixed configuration switches can be managed as a single virtual entity. Fixed configuration switches generally cannot be used to provision an entire large enterprise, but instead are mostly used out at the edge or departmental level as a low-cost alternative to modular products.
Assumptions:
Ethernet is Open
Active/Active in the Fabric
Therefore:
Open at the Edge
Active/Active at the edge
The Secret Sauce is the Control Plane, not the Encapsulation
Host Route Distribution decoupled from the Underlay protocol
Use MultiProtocol-BGP (MP-BGP) on the Leaf nodes to distribute internal Host/Subnet Routes and external reachability information
Route-Reflectors deployed for scaling purposes
VXLAN terminates its tunnels on VTEPs (Virtual Tunnel End Point).
Each VTEP has two interfaces, one is to provide bridging function for local hosts, the other has an IP identification in the core network for VXLAN encapsulation/decapsulation.
VXLAN Encapsulation and De-encapsulation occur on T2
Bridging and Gateway are independent of the port type (1/10/40G ports)
Encapsulation happens on the egress port
Decapsulation happens on the ingress port

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Control Notes:
XYZ Account will be some loosing
some perceived controls that they
have become accustomed
(including physical security, static
users and fixed configurations).
Not many software is written yet
to take advantage of cloud
infrastructure. Sensitive data will
be in the cloud, data will be in
motion.

XYZ Account Application Notes:
XYZ Account can use Media
Synchronization (human brains
are wired to perceive late
audio as normal, but early
audio as unnatural)...
Audio Channels < 5-20 μs of
each other and stationary
Video ahead of Audio < 25ms
Video lagging Audio < 15 μs

The primary advantage for AV
integrators is simplicity. From the
endpoint to the network core, AVB
makes networks easier to manage,
modify, and provision, and eliminates
challenges presented by distance.
Can Dante operate over a Wi-Fi
network? No. While possible in principle,
the practical limitations of current
wireless technology (802.11a/b/g/n)
render reliable performance
unachievable. For this reason Dante
software such as Virtual Soundcard
will not recognize wireless connections
for audio data.
Professional Live Audio and Video
2 ms maximum delay - Maximum delay between a musician doing something and
hearing that same something is 10 ms while the transit time of sound from monitor
speakers to the musician, plus DSP delays, plus mixer delays, plus more DSP delays
uses up 8ms so the network gets 2ms for the musician-to-monitor path
1 μs maximum synchronization error - For speaker arrays the maximum
synchronization error between speakers must be less than 10 μs and, of course, the
designers want (and can use) better: down to 1 μs
Control and Sensor Networks .
More stringent than ProAV.
Home Networks (Less stringent than ProAV).
Objectives:
Provide a network-wide precision clock reference
Limit network delays to a well-known value
Keep non-time-sensitive traffic from messing things up

Audio Video Bridging / Time Sensitive Networking
2012+ Proponent: AVnu Alliance
Interoperable
precise timing
low latency requirements
Does not require a dedicated network - AVB by definition is
part of the network...
The media portion is prioritized over other traffic as part
of this definition.
If anything, the audio will not suffer from other traffic,
but non-media will not get the same priority.
Requires AVB certified switch(es) Will not pass on non-
certified switches.
