Day 2 - Hands-on Workshop on Networking Topics

Overview
This free hands-on workshop provides cyberinfrastructure (CI) engineers with an introduction to tools and techniques for the design, implementation, and monitoring of high-throughput networks and science demilitarized zones (Science DMZs). Each attendee will have full control of equipment pods emulating internetworks and tools (see figures below) to learn and test TCP-related issues and perfSONAR nodes distributed across networks.

This workshop also provides hands-on experience on the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). BGP is the de facto standard inter-AS routing protocol in today’s Internet. As such, it is a critical protocol for the Internet—in essence, it is the protocol that glues the whole thing together.
