Systems Approach Last year a couple of people forwarded to me the same article on a new method of finding shortest paths in networks.… The underlying research claims to improve on the classic approach ...

The proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) has intensified the need for robust and efficient communication protocols, particularly in low power and lossy networks (LLNs) where devices are ...

In mobile ad hoc network nodes dynamically forms networks, there is no any central infrastructure, and thus routing becomes a very important issue. Routing protocols used in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks ...

Routing protocols play a critical role in the functioning of the Internet and the services built upon them. However, many of these protocols were developed without security concerns in mind. For ...

Everyone in the networking industry seems to fall into one of two camps: those that have used server-based routing software and those that have no idea such a thing exists. Now a solution called Free ...

The inefficiency factor in the case of traditional routing is one of the main reasons why SD-WAN is really taking off. BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is considered the glue of the internet. If we view ...

Will this new packet-forwarding mechanism replace OpenFlow for software-defined networking? IP packet forwarding techniques traditionally have relied on taking the shortest path to the destination IP ...

Initiatives like smart manufacturing require the free flow of information across a network architecture—from the point where data is first collected, to where that data is analyzed and contextualized ...

High-performance network software maker Arista Networks today unveiled what it describes as next-generation cloud-grade routing. The logic behind this is that routing needs to evolve to meet the ...

I appreciate there isn't a one size fits all answer to this, but if you're in an environment with multiple switches/VLANs/firewalls etc. what is usually the point at which you go from entering static ...
