We’re barely out of the gates with 802.11n, and we already have two new emerging standards that are likely to shake up the wireless world: 802.11ac and 802.11ad. 802.11ac is in many ways a "lessons learned" from 802.11n. It employs many of the same techniques to achieve even greater data rates, while requiring less power than with 802.11n – one of its biggest challenges. 802.11ad will expand data rates even further, taking advantage of new spectrum, which will enable entirely new uses cases for 802.11.
The future of Wi-Fi remains very strong. It is already way beyond critical mass, and with 802.11ac and 802.11ad it will remain the go-to-solution for the last 100 yards of any data network, and perhaps more. Users are now dependent on Wi-Fi, and there's nothing even close in the market that's ready to take its place. Please join us to discover how these new specifications will further entrench 802.11, where they’re likely to be used first, and whether or not you should be preparing yourself for a technology upgrade in the near future.
In this web seminar, we will cover:
- Current timeline in 802.11 development
- Characteristics of 802.11ac and 802.11ad
- Improvements over 802.11n
- Potential use cases for 802.11ac and 802.11ad
What you will learn:
- Whether 802.11ac and 802.11ad will have an enterprise footprint
- How 802.11ac and 802.11ad will integrate with current 802.11 deployments
- When you should be planning for a technology upgrade

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?
If the number of spine switches were to be merely doubled, the effect of a single switch failure is halved. With 8 spine switches, the effect of a single switch failure only causes a 12% reduction in available bandwidth. So, in modern data centers, people build networks with anywhere from 4 to 32 spine switches. With a leaf-spine network, every server on the network is exactly the same distance away from all other servers – three port hops, to be precise. The benefit of this architecture is that you can just add more spines and leaves as you expand the cluster and you don't have to do any recabling. Intuition Systems will also get more predictable latency between the nodes.
As a trend, disaggregation seems to be most useful for very large companies like Facebook and Google, or cloud providers. The technology does not necessarily have significant implications for small or medium sized businesses. Historically, however, technology has a way of trickling down from the pioneering phases of existing only within large companies with tremendous resources, to becoming more standardized across the board.
Large venues like stadiums or concert halls are challenging environments for Wi-Fi deployments. Most of today’s phones and tablets carry Wi-Fi interfaces. A safe assumption is that at least one device per person in a stadium carry a Wi-Fi interface. Monetizing those Wi-Fi interfaces with real time information of the event in the venue, targeted advertising, internet access, multimedia and social applications can create new revenues to the owner of the venue, if executed properly.

TechWiseTV Workshop: Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless ControllerRobb Boyd
A new addition to the Catalyst 9000 family, the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers are the next generation of controllers that bridge Cisco’s intent-based networking portfolio. Powered by the Cisco IOS XE operating system, the 9800 Series Wireless Controllers are always on, secure, and can be deployed anywhere.
Software updates with no disruptions and rolling access point upgrades completely change the definition of “always on.” “Secure” translates to increased threat detections in encrypted traffic and automated macro and micro segmentation. Finally, the ability to deploy in either a private or public cloud promises you the freedom that no other controller currently offers.
In this session we’ll cover the following aspects of Catalyst 9800:
Overview of the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller and its features and functionalities
Cisco Catalyst 9800 security, always-on functionality, and the ability to be deployed anywhere, and why these features create a stronger, more efficient wireless network
How the new 9800 controllers fit into the Cisco Catalyst family

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.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

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.

Editor's Notes
This is where 802.11ac Wave 2 comes in.
You might be thinking, we just heard about 802.11ac Wave 1, why Wave 2? Here’s one way to look at it.
This is what things looked like back in what we’ll call the dawn of wireless. When businesses first started installing wireless networks, there weren’t all that many devices needing to use them—and those that did didn’t require much network capacity.
Then we entered the age of mobility density and the idea of the “all wireless office.” As the default primary access network, the wireless LAN became more taxed, and we needed improved technology like 802.11n and then the first wave of 802.11ac.
So why is Wave 2 even faster? Several key technology improvements provide a big boost in performance—up to 80% faster speeds than Wave 1. Let’s take a brief look at each of them.
A second key Wave 2 improvement is the option to use 160-MHz channel widths. That’s double what we saw with Wave 1 technology. Here you can see the potential throughput at 160-MHz channel widths. The top speeds depend on the whether the AP supports 80-MHz or 160-MHz channels, as well as whether the wireless client devices tapping your network support Wave 2. We expect that initial Wave 2 APs and clients will support 80-MHz channel widths.
In that spirit, I’d like to introduce the 5520 and 8540 WLAN Controllers. They have high-throughput options to handle big Wi-Fi traffic loads that, depending on your volume, aren’t too small or too big but are just right. These two controllers can aggregate port traffic to 40 Gbps and can accommodate from 1,500 to 6,000 access points, and from 20,000 to 64,000 clients, respectively. Each has three deployment modes:
Centralized mode, which forwards all data traffic through the controller so you can see and monitor all traffic in and out
FlexConnect mode, which allows you to choose centralized data forwarding through the controller or distributed data forwarding out at the access points on a per-AP basis
Mesh mode, which forwards traffic from AP to AP to create an over-the-air backhaul network that accommodates longer transmission distances
Both the 5520 and 8540 controllers include the rich feature set of Cisco AireOS 8.1, the latest version of operating system software for Cisco controllers and access points. 8.1 adds important RF excellence capabilities for next generation wireless networks. The three key benefits of 8.1 include ease of use, enhanced troubleshooting, and, perhaps most important, enhanced Cisco High-Density Experience features.
All other WLAN controllers in the Cisco Aironet family are upgradable to 8.1 (or will ship new with 8.1), so that the features and capabilities across your controller population are all in sync.
Starting with CUWN AireOS release 8.1 the WLAN controller UI has been updated with new HTML 5 dashboards providing enhanced monitoring and troubleshooting.
What makes the new WLAN Controller UI so different is that we have added an HTML5 intuitive front end without having to completely abandon the familiar / Classic UI.
The rich set of visual capabilities that expose Cisco RF excellence can be used to illustrate our advantages over our competitors in performance and connectivity and we are able to expose the suite of functionality called High Density Experience which as yet has not been replicated by any of the competition.
Users can easily toggle between the classic UI and new dashboards.
Using an HTML5 UI also allowed for a new mobile application for both Apple IOS and Android extending WLAN Controller UI support to millions of mobile devices.
What are the top 10 things to demonstrate in the new WLAN Controller UI?
User Friendly Interface - The HTML5 format features a new and better database with enhanced forms, search boxes, and sorting capabilities which is also mobile device friendly and allowed us to deliver a feature rich mobile app at the same time
Advanced Classic UI – Easily switch between NEW UI and Classic UI. With over a decade of development and familiarity the entire advanced UI structure is maintained for advanced controls.
Network Summary – Simple and intuitive view of the AP’s, Operating systems, Applications, rogues, interference and Clients
Client search capabilities - Quickly drill down to specific client details.

Cisco Mobility Express is an on-premise, solution for quickly and easily deploying a robust Wi-Fi network. It’s a no-cost module for Cisco Aironet 1850 Series Access points, which provide superior coverage and performance with 802.11ac Wave 2 support. Using Mobility Express, one AP can become the wireless network’s control point and scale to manage up to 25 APs. A Setup Wizard and 3-step over-the-air configuration process deploys all APs at once, so you’re up and running in no time.
The Setup Wizard reduces deployment time to about five minutes. A graphical interface walks you through the simple steps, using intuitive icons and pop-up windows that show you what needs to be done. You can set up your wireless LAN in just three steps:
1. Connect via any wireless device
2. Configure multiple APs simultaneously with Setup Wizard
3. Implement best practice templates with advanced features, right out of the box
Once the network is deployed, the analytics dashboard lets you see all your APs and applications and troubleshoot the network.

Cisco Connected Mobile Experiences (or CMX) transforms your network into an experience engine. An experience engine that delivers dynamic, relevant content to mobile end-users. This connection between physical venue and user opens the door to improving user experiences and optimizing operations.
Cisco CMX is based on 3 primary activities: detect, connect, and engage.
First, as an end user carrying a mobile device approaches your venue, the network detects the presence and location of the device leveraging visibility of Wi-Fi location, BLE and video.
After the end user receives notification of available Wi-Fi access and services, that individual can then connect to the network securely.
Once visitors have access, you can engage them with app based mobile engagement delivering context-aware experiences for the venue to develop a relationship
There’s an overarching activity across all three activities. That’s analytics, and it’s a key component of Cisco CMX. The solution sources location data from devices that have been detected and connected to the network, and it analyzes engagement opportunities from that data.
All mobile experiences rely on the quality of location. The degree of accuracy you get in knowing where people and devices are determines the quality and usefulness of your data.
Cisco has been committed to delivering location excellence for the last 8 years. We’ve developed a suite of hyperlocation technologies that includes:
FastLocate Technology, which enables the Wi-Fi network to pick up signals from visitors’ devices more quickly, giving you more data points. This way, you get more data on visitors’ paths through your venue. FastLocate tells you more about where people began and ended their visits and where they went in-between.
And Cisco has a new Hyperlocation Module for our high-speed access points. It is a sensor that wraps around Cisco Aironet 802.11ac access points and helps you pinpoint Wi-Fi users’ locations much more accurately than previously.
BLE Visualization & Management: Using Bluetooth Low Energy sensors, which are dispersed much more liberally through the environment than the access points, you can pick up much more granular data. You might, for example, accurately locate customers within an aisle and push contents based on nearby products.
This is one of the most important slides of this presentation…
Cisco is often accused of being too complex, but rarely is credit given to us where we have made things simpler to operate…
What this slide shows you is that Cisco has driven the innovation of Wireless from Autonomous Access Points all the way up to being the first manufacturer to bring 802.11ac to market
Engineering a Wireless Network is like engineering an Air Traffic Control System at a national level. You must create “Self-Learning, Self-Protecting, Self-Healing, and Self-Optimizing” capabilities to maximize usage and even more importantly avoid collisions – and it is important for all of you to understand that a Wireless Network does not operate in the same manner as a Wired Network – a Wired Network uses a highly predictable cable and tolerates some level of packet collision – whereas in a Wireless Network the “highly unpredictable air is the network” and packet collisions are not tolerated just like an Air Traffic Control System
Cisco was first to develop the “Self-Learning” capability for Wireless with our suite of Radio Resource Management (RRM) capabilities that everyone else has followed and the IEEE has integrated in to the 802.11 standard… but we have the original patents for Dynamic Channel Allocation, Transmit Power Adjustment, Coverage Hole Detection and Mitigation, Load Balancing, etc…
Cisco was first to develop the “CleanAir Self-Protecting” capability for Wireless interference that nobody else has been able to replicate 6+ years after its initial launch… Cisco can Detect, Identify, Classify, and Mitigate interference whereas the competition can only Detect and Identify, which means only Cisco can automatically reconfigure the Wireless Network based on a calculated zone of interference or impact to preserve channel capacity for client usage…
Digital Enterprises are “Always On” businesses and in support of that reality Cisco was first to develop the “Stateful Switchover (SSO) Self-Healing” capability for every operating level of a Wireless Network - WLAN Controller, Access Point, and Client… only Cisco can deliver a non-stop Wireless Client Session to the Digital Enterprise and the competition has not been able to catch up in the 3+ years since we introduced this capability
Since Wireless is the Primary Connectivity for the Digital Enterprise every Digital Enterprise is “High Density”. In support of that reality Cisco was first to develop the “Self-Optimizing” suite of functionality called High Density Experience (HDX) for 802.11ac networks that nobody else has been able to replicate 2+ years after initial launch… Aruba will claim that their ClientMatch is the same as our Optimized Roaming and Ruckus will claim their BeamFlex is that same as our ClientLink, but neither of them have replicated the rest of the HDX suite of functionality - CleanAir, Turbo Performance, Dynamic Bandwidth Selection, RF Noise Suppression or even our latest addition to HDX called Flexible DFS for improved Radar Avoidance operation…
With the recent implementation of a simplified installation process and a new Dashboard GUI and Smartphone application for our WLAN Controllers Cisco is simpler to install, manage, and when coupled with all the other innovations we have brought to market we greatly Simplify IT Operations under the FAST IT vision
