iPhone 3G: The wait is over
News The iPhone 3G can be wirelessly synchronised with a Windows PC, and has security features such as support for Cisco IPsec VPN and WPA2 Enterprise with 802.1x authentication for wi-fi network protection. [11 Jul 2008]
Shared Protection Routing Algorithm for Optical Network
White Paper In a connection-oriented network such as an all-optical transport network, shared protection provides the same level of protection against single path failures as dedicated protection, with potentially higher network utilization. [11 Jul 2008]
Differentiated Quality-of-Protection Provisioning in Optical/MPLS Networks
White Paper This paper present a new approach to provisioning lightpath requests according to their differentiated Quality-of-Protection (QoP) requirements. It focuses on one of the most important QoP parameters, namely protection-switching time, since... [11 Jul 2008]
End-to-End Dedicated Protection in Multi-Segment Optical Networks
White Paper Based on the network model with segment, the paper study the protection schemes which are: End-to-end link disjoint, End-to-end Gateway-Disjoint, Segment-Disjoint, and Concatenated Segments, and study their relative merits on the basis of segment... [11 Jul 2008]
A Heuristic Routing Algorithm for Shared Protection in Connection-Oriented Network
White Paper In a connection-oriented network, shared protection provides the same level of protection against single path failures as dedicated protection, with potentially higher network utilization. This paper lists the requirements of path protection and... [11 Jul 2008]
Non-Disruptive Backups and Migrations Enhances European Patent Protection and Management
White Paper The European Patent Office grants European patents. The EPO carries out searches and substantive examinations on a steadily rising number of European patent applications and international applications filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty. [11 Jul 2008]
Network Protection Design for MPLS Networks
White Paper This paper considers the problem of designing partially and fully survivable explicit label switched paths for MPLS networks. These problems are model as Mixed Integer Linear Programs. Furthermore, it presents a survivability assessment of the models. [11 Jul 2008]
Handling Encrypted Email at the Gateway of a Network
White Paper Protection for email is provided by client side encryption from being read or hacked. But the security risk in this protection is that it also protects virus from being sensed by the anti virus software. [11 Jul 2008]
Scalability of Network-Failure Resilience
White Paper It characterize resilience as the percentage of lost traffic upon failures and define scalability as the growth rate of the percentage of lost traffic with respect to network size, link failure probability and traffic for given failure protection... [11 Jul 2008]
Fortinet Case Study: Korean Information Service Corporation (KOIS)
White Paper KOIS deployed FortiGate Network Protection Gateways to fully secure the VPN while maintaining required performance levels and system requirements. FortiGate-300 Network Protection Gateways were installed at the call center, and FortiGate-50 Network... [11 Jul 2008]
Local Recovery Solutions From Multi-Link Failures in MPLS-TE Networks With Probable Failure Patterns
White Paper MPLS TE Fast Reroute proposes a local protection mechanism to quickly reroute protected TE LSPs onto pre-computed and signaled bypass tunnels. This paper explores the case of multiple network element failure scenarios. [11 Jul 2008]
Local Detection and Recovery From Multi-Failure Patterns in MPLS-TE Networks
White Paper MPLS Fast Reroute advocates local protection mechanisms to rapidly reroute traffic onto pre-computed and signaled bypass tunnels. When the network is subject to multiple element failures, it becomes challenging to handle all the possible failure... [11 Jul 2008]
