Product Update and Latest Developments in Cisco IOS® Software (PRD-100) This session will highlight the latest developments in Cisco IOS® Software and how they can help you run your business applications and offer new services. Come hear about Globally Resilient IP technologies, which includes Cisco Nonstop Forwarding with Stateful Switchover to minimize the impact of catastrophic hardware and software failures, and the Unified VPN Suite, which offers support for the broadest range of L2 and L3 VPN technologies in the industry. Recent developments and updates in Security, QoS, NAT and other areas will also be covered. There will also be a panel of experts available to answer any questions you may have about Cisco IOS innovation! Back to top Bandwidth Protection Solutions Using MPLS (PRD-101) During defined failure conditions, e.g., a line card, a node, a cable or any other aspect affecting network connectivity, it is key to restore connectivity as soon as possible to minimize packet loss. This typically should happen in the order of milliseconds. When an alternate route is used, the 'backed up traffic' will be in contention with the 'primary traffic' that is using this 'alternate route'. Similar to interstate construction, there may be a 1-lane reroute for a 4-lane highway. This session will show how, with 'Bandwidth Protection' - there will always be a 4-lane reroute available'. Technically - Bandwidth Protection uses Cisco's IOS MPLS Traffic Engineering Fast ReRoute and Cisco MPLS Tunnel Builder Pro to solve this extremely difficult optimization problem that is dubbed 'np-complete' in the mathematical domain. Back to top E911 and IP Telephony (PRD-110) This session provides a short overview of current PSTN E-911 infrastructure in North America and how it can affect a Cisco AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video and Integrated Data) solution. The trend among regulators is to connect multiline telephone systems directly to E-911 networks. This session explores the options available in Cisco AVVID to meet these regulations. Back to top Voice Routing Enhancements for the Enterprise and Service Provider IOS Based Gateways (PRD-111) This product update session examines the various voice-routing enhancements added to voice-over-IP (VoIP) gateways that are used in deployments ranging from small branch offices to large service provider VoIP networks. Topics include trunk-group and carrier-sensitive routing, enhanced translation rules, and E.164-to-voice-service mapping (related to RFC 2916). Customers that are conducting beta testing of this capability, which is not yet in general use, include SingTel, China Unicom, Ibasis, and Genuity. Back to top Dynamic Multipoint IPsec IOS VPN Solution (PRD-120) This session covers the new Cisco Dynamic Multipoint IOS VPN Solution. This solution uses multipoint Generic Routing Encapsulation (mGRE) tunnels with Next-Hop Routing Protocol (NHRP) and IP Security (IPSec) to scale large IPSec virtual private networks (VPNs) by reducing the router configuration size; supporting remote IPSec peers with dynamically assigned addresses; and using dynamic direct spoke-to-spoke tunnels for meshed IPSec VPNs. The following sessions cover information you may find useful if you register for this session: PRD-121 Highly Available IPSec VPNs and Remote Access VPN Enhancements in Cisco IOS Software, SEC-210 Deploying and Managing Enterprise IPSec VPNs, SEC-310 Troubleshooting IPSec Designs and Implementations, and SEC-410 Advanced IPSec Concepts. This session is particularly useful for designers, managers, and implementers of large extended Corporate IPSec VPN networks. It is also useful for service providers that deploy IPSec and VPN services for their customers. Back to top Highly Available IPsec VPNs and Remote Access VPN Enhancements in Cisco IOS (PRD-121) This session will cover some new and also upcoming IPsec based VPN features for Cisco IOS. Topics covered will include:1) Unified Client support - this feature is based on a common specification implemented across Cisco VPN gateways and uses some IETF draft transaction exchanges (Mode Configuration and Extended Authentication). What is in the spec? How does it work? How does a customer implement a remote access VPN solution using this feature?2) High Availability and Failover - will present concepts for both stateless and stateful failover for IPsec based VPNs: HSRP and virtual tunnel endpoints, dynamic route creation, load balancing. Customer feedback on this topic is also very important. Back to top Deploying Catalyst Products in the Enterprise (PRD-130) Many new product introductions and enhancements in the past year bring new functionality and options for building and deploying switched networks. This session looks at Cisco LAN switching solutions and provides a view into the new technologies and functionality available from the Cisco Catalyst Family of LAN switches (Catalyst 6500, 4000, 3550 and 2950 series). This session addresses deployment strategies and where to position Cisco Catalyst products in a network for maximum benefit. This session identifies key functionality and services to increase the efficiency and operation of an organization's network and how this affects network design decisions. Discussion topics include new technology and capabilities for Cisco Catalyst products; leveraging Catalyst products when building a converged network; implementing intelligent services from the core to edge; and LAN security. Back to top Implementing Metro Area Networks with Ethernet Switching Products (PRD-131) Cisco Ethernet metro switching, a component of Cisco's metro framework, offers comprehensive solutions for metro deployments. This session provides an overview of how the Cisco Catalyst® product line and Cisco 7600 products enable metro deployments and discusses the different capabilities each product offers. This session covers deployment strategies and identifies key technologies and services that can be implemented with Cisco metro Ethernet switching. Topics include where to deploy Cisco metro Ethernet switching products; the key roles Cisco metro Ethernet switching products play in metro networks; and leveraging intelligent services throughout the metro access, metro aggregation, and regional metro aggregation. Back to top Catalyst 6500 Product Update (PRD-132) This session covers service modules and intelligent network services: where to deploy them, in what combinations, and with what applications; Firewall-VPN-SSL Termination-Intrusion Detection-Network Analysis Module (lite)-Network Analysis Module (gigabit)-Content Switching Module; the role of IEEE 802.1x in the delivery of user-based services and authentication; deploying the Cisco Catalyst 6500 as part of a comprehensive scaleable security infrastructure in the enterprise campus; deploying intelligent network services to protect and secure converged network services; software development roadmap and overview; the Catalyst Operating System versus the Cisco IOS® Software; and deploying Cisco IOS Software on the Cisco Catalyst switches. Back to top Cisco 7x00 Internet Router Platforms Update (PRD-140) The Cisco midrange edge routers provide high performance and service-rich network solutions for service providers and enterprise customers. The much discussed network edge is where expense containment or revenue generation can be most dramatically affected. Topics include how the Cisco midrange router solution meets edge network needs both today and in the future, and provides updates on the Cisco 7200, 7300, 7400, 7500, and 7600 Series routers. This session is suitable for all attendees. Back to top Access Router Product Update (PRD-150) Cisco is introducing a rich new suite of routers that provide intelligent services such as QoS, security, availability, and VoIP to support the extension of critical business applications to branch offices and remote workers. This new portfolio of routers will allow customers to build a highly reliable, secure network that will scale with their needs to prioritize critical applications and provide new voice and video services as the needs arise. Based on the Cisco IOS Software, these new products will be easy to deploy and manage, minimizing the customer's total cost of ownership.
