Packet Analysis - Course Technology Computing Conference
Presenter: Lisa Bock - Pennsylvania College of Technology
Most network administrators are well-versed in hardware, applications, operating systems, and network analysis tools. However, many are not trained in analyzing network traffic. Network administrators should be able to identify normal network traffic in order to determine unusual or suspicious activity. Network packet analysis is important in order to troubleshoot congestion issues, create firewall and intrusion detection system rules, and perform incident and threat detection. This hands-on presentation will review fundamental concepts necessary to analyze network traffic, beginning with an overview of network analysis, then a review the TCP/IP protocol suite and LAN operations. Participants will examine packet captures and understand the field values of the protocols and as to what is considered normal behavior, and then examine captures that show exploits, network reconnaissance, and signatures of common network attacks. The program will use Wireshark, a network protocol analyzer for Unix and Windows, to study network packets, look at basic features such as display and capture filters, and examine common protocols such as TCP, HTTP, DNS, and FTP. Time permitting, the presentation will provide suggestions on how to troubleshoot performance problems, conduct a network baseline, and how to follow a TCP or UDP stream and see HTTP artifacts. Participants should have a basic knowledge of computer networking and an interest in the subject.

Silverlight session description and analysis using wireshark
Keynote given at DRCN2018, shows that innovation is back in the transport and network layer with a description of Multipath TCP, QUIC and IPv6 Segment Routing.
The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is used by the vast majority of applications to transport their data reliably across the Internet and in the cloud. TCP was designed in the 1970s and has slowly evolved since then. Today's networks are multipath: mobile devices have multiple wireless interfaces, datacenters have many redundant paths between servers, and multihoming has become the norm for big server farms. Meanwhile, TCP is essentially a single-path protocol: when a TCP connection is established, the connection is bound to the IP addresses of the two communicating hosts and these cannot change. Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is a major modification to TCP that allows multiple paths to be used simultaneously by a single transport connection. Multipath TCP circumvents the issues mentioned above and several others that affect TCP. The IETF is currently finalising the Multipath TCP RFC and an implementation in the Linux kernel is available today.
This tutorial will present in details the design of Multipath TCP and the role that it could play in cloud environments. We will start with a presentation of the current Internet landscape and explain how various types of middleboxes have influenced the design of Multipath TCP. Second we will describe in details the connection establishment and release procedures as well as the data transfer mechanisms that are specific to Multipath TCP. We will then discuss several use cases for the deployment of Multipath TCP including improving the performance of datacenters and
mobile WiFi offloading on smartphones. All these use cases are key when both accessing cloud-based services or when providing them. We will end the tutorial with some open research issues.
This tutorial was given at the IEEE Cloud'Net 2012 conference in novembrer 2012.

Short overview of AAA and the RADIUS protocol.
The term AAA (say triple A) subsumes the functions used in network access to allow a user or a computer to access a network and use its resources.
AAA stands for Authentication (is the user authentic?), Authorization (what is the user allowed to do?) and Accounting (track resource usage by the user).
AAA is typically employed at network ingress points to control user's access to the network and resources.
The most prominent protocol for AAA is RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) which defines messages for opening and closing a network session and counting network usage (packet and byte count).
RADIUS usually works in conjunction with an LDAP server that stores the policies and user authorizations in a central repository.

Machine Data Is EVERYWHERE: Use It for TestingTechWell
As more applications are hosted on servers, they produce immense quantities of logging data. Quality engineers should verify that apps are producing log data that is existent, correct, consumable, and complete. Otherwise, apps in production are not easily monitored, have issues that are difficult to detect, and cannot be corrected quickly. Tom Chavez presents the four steps that quality engineers should include in every test plan for apps that produce log output or other machine data. First, test that the data is being created. Second, ensure that the entries are correctly formatted and complete. Third, make sure the data can be consumed by your company’s log analysis tools. And fourth, verify that the app will create all possible log entries from the test data that is supplied. Join Tom as he presents demos including free tools. Learn the steps you need to include in your test plans so your team’s apps not only function but also can be monitored and understood from their machine data when running in production.
This talk is an application-driven walkthrough to modern stream processing, exemplified by Apache Flink, and how this enables new applications and makes old applications easier and more efficient. In this talk, we will walk through several real-world stream processing application scenarios of Apache Flink, highlighting unique features in Flink that make these applications possible. In particular, we will see (1) how support for handling out of order streams enables real-time monitoring of cloud infrastructure, (2) how the ability handle high-volume data streams with low latency SLAs enables real-time alerts in network equipment, (3) how the combination of high throughput and the ability to handle batch as a special case of streaming enables an architecture where the same exact program is used for real-time and historical data processing, and (4) how stateful stream processing can enable an architecture that eliminates the need for an external database store, leading to more than 100x performance speedup, among many other benefits.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
