IPV4/IPV6 BGP Routing Workshop

Instructors
Mark Tinka – SEACOM
Johnathan Lee – Global Transit Communications
Nurul Islam – APNIC

Synopsis

This is a technical workshop, made up of lecture and hands-on lab work to teach the OSPF/ISIS and BGP skills required for the configuration and operation of large scale networks that make up the Internet.

Target Audience

Technical staff who are now building or operating a wide area service provider network with international and/or multi-provider connectivity, or considering participation at an Internet Exchange point.

Pre-requisites

It is assumed that the workshop participants know how to use a router command line interface, do basic router configuration and have a working knowledge of an IGP (OSPF or ISIS) and BGP fundamentals. This workshop is not an introduction. The lab exercises use Cisco IOS configuration syntax.

Network Security Workshop

Instructors
Sheryl (Shane) Hermosa – APNIC
Champika Wijayatunga – ICANN

Synopsis

The objective of this workshop is to examine the key concepts, protocols and the policies involved in establishing and maintaining security for a network, and building an understanding and familiarity with their operation. Device and network infrastructure security is examined with a focus on different layers to establish a robust, stable and secure network and protect the data and processes that occur in the network.

The workshop also looks at the nature and structure of network attacks and the motivation that drives such on-line malicious activity.

The course further examines the actions and processes that can be used to identify, mitigate and respond to such attacks.

Target Audience

Engineers, Network Managers and Operators, Security policy makers who are interested in network security and gaining an understanding of the threats they face and how to mitigate such threats.

Pre-requisites

It is assumed that participants have a basic understanding of network operations and Internet technologies.

Course Outline

  • Network Security Fundamentals
  • Security on Different Layers and Attack Mitigation
  • Cryptography and PKI
  • Device and Infrastructure Security
  • Operational Security and Policies
  • Virtual Private Networks and IPSec
  • DNSSEC
  • Route Filtering

Other requirements

It is highly recommended that participants bring their own laptop computers (At least Pentium 4, 1gb Ram, DVD drive, with administrative access to system) to practice the lessons learned during the workshops.

Maximum number of attendees

40 participants per workshop. Certificate of participation is provided upon successful completion of the course.
