RPKI Deployment - Susan Forney

RIPE NCC Operator Tools (DKNOG10)

• Mirjam Kühne (RIPE NCC)
• Nathalie Trenaman (RIPE NCC)

We have some new tools and prototypes for you to try out. At the RIPE NCC, we develop tools that could help network operators based on data gathered through RIPE Atlas, the Routing Information Service and other public data sets. In this presentation, we will share some of our tools and prototypes and invite your feedback to help us develop these further! This will include an announcement of the new RIPE Atlas software probes.

Deciphering the buzz: Trying to succeed with SD-WAN IRL (DKNOG10)

• Sebastian Vad Lorentzen (Head of SD-WAN Engineering, GlobalConnect)

Lessons learned about the real world state of SD-WAN during GlobalConnect's recent year of product development process including RFI/RFQ/PoC's with most of the major SD-WAN technology vendors, and lately turning the chosen vendor solutions into actual managed SD-WAN products in a classic nordic BTB telco service provider environment.

the complexity of hyper speed transceivers - lets make it

• Thomas Weible (FLEXOPTIX GmbH)

Thomas will describe in detail the structures inside optical transceivers. A Transmitter / Receiver Optical Sub Assembly (TOSA / ROSA) is no longer just a diode in a housing handling the light path to and fro to the fiber. The performance increases from 10G to 100G onwards to 400G - are not only giant steps in bandwidth there are matching leaps in manufacturing. How did the optical industry players around the globe make it possible to squeeze everything into the tiny form factors we see today? It is all about precision - a microscope with a calm and competent hand is no longer sufficient, now it is about; nano tolerances, testing, complex transceiver firmware and a shed load of money. This is the high precision optical mechanical engineering revolution which fuels the hyper growth of data centers and optical networking worldwide… If you face design issues with your current optical network design Thomas will give insights into the latest 40G to 400G transceiver developments (e.g. long distance 80km) which you can expect to see in the upcoming months. Hopefully this might save you some headaches. As a small „one more thing" Thomas will dive into the basics of how FEC compensates for errors caused by PAM4 modulation. presenter: Thomas Weible - Co-Founder and CTO of Flexoptix GmbH. He formerly lead the groundbreaking software development within the company. Thomas has moved more and more towards the field of transceiver technology and his so called „support with no levels and no bullshit“. Enthusiastic in everything he does, he gives realistic and practical answers to get transceivers working and operational. As speaker at several conferences around the globe he is able to target the needs of network engineers.

RIFT: Engineering Simplicity in IP Fabric (DKNOG10)

• Sonny T. Larsen (Juniper Networks)

An introduction to a new and novel routing protocol for the datacenter; Routing in Fat Trees or in short RIFT. In this presentation we will dive into what challenges RIFT solves over the use of OSPF, IS-IS and BGP in the datacenter. I will also give an update on the status of the work in IETF and point out to some implementations.

Using Network Automation to replace poor documentation (DKNOG10)

• Allan Eising (Telia Company)

What do you do if you suddenly inherit the responsibility of an unknown network with no documentation? You write software, of course! This talk is about how I inherited a network on an unknown platform with no documentation, and made some seriously cool software to operate it.

Fantastic People and Where to Find Them. (DKNOG10)

• Julia Freeman

In this talk, Julia explores the unintentional (but often harmful) prejudices people and organisations have while hiring new staff and trying to retain qualified staff. This talk will make you think about your daily routine and biasses in a clear and entertaining way, using real life examples. This is a great learning experience for everyone, but especially those who have any involvement in the hiring and management processes."
