TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2010 10:00 AM–12:00 PM Franciscan B TRA403a - Hands-on Training Lab nGenius InfiniStream Lab: “Back in the Packet” Brian Hendee Follow the packet from the inside out . The final answer is in the packets, just the one you need, when you need it . Our nGenius InfiniStream appliances, through its graphical user console, provides Packet-Flow visibility, from capture, to index, and filtering, and offers intelligent deep analysis as packets continuously cross the wire for storage and retrieval . Learn what packet analysis troubleshooting methods are best for what situations . In this hands-on lab, we’ll share best practices and tips to help determine the root cause of typical network problems . Investigate trace files to uncover and apply the most productive methods for troubleshooting . Learn how to compare the bad with the good, decipher each problem one step at a time, and set up effective filtering, one of the best ways to quickly isolate problems . 10:00 AM–12:00 PM Franciscan A TRA405a - Hands-on Training Lab Service Provider Lab: “Wirelessly nGenius” Don Prefontaine Service Provider monitoring and network analysis requires a 4G perspective . In addition to the traditional enterprise network 3G approach, consideration must also be given to the timing of the user traffic as its transits packet tunnels between the Radio Area Network and the provider network while on its way to the Provider or Internet resource . In this hands-on lab we’ll examine both bearer (user) and control traffic timing to determine if response times are reasonable or if they have crossed the line . As wireless infrastructure nodes like PDSNs and SGSNs become loaded, their responsiveness may decline and so may the subscriber’s impression of network performance . Using the graphical features of the nGenius Service Assurance Solution, we will examine the good, the bad, and the ugly to help you recognize these timing issues . 11:00 AM–12:00 PM Imperial A BKE206 - Enterprise: Best Practices Reducing IP Other: Monitor More Known Applications in nGenius Performance Manager Brian Philips; Guest Speaker: Don Porter, Zions Bancorporation Identifying, thereby reducing IP_Other Traffic on your network is a good practice for developing a baseline of your network’s typical behavior . This session will help you to more readily identify standard traffic on nonstandard ports and identify custom applications by identifying servers and operating systems . Tools and methods are included, including knowing how and when to know it is time for launching a few techniques to reduce the IP_Other traffic . 11:00 AM–12:00 PM Imperial B BKE207a - Enterprise: Best Practices How Do You Know if You are Being Hacked? Fred Phillips Thinking your network is secure and knowing your network is secure are not the same things . Knowing requires onging assessment of your monitoring techniques, whereas thinking is the belief that the last security patch was good enough to hold it together . Does thinking mean your network is safe? No, it just means you have not detected the latest hack against it . In this lecture / demo we will examine some of the common network attacks and how nGenius your NetScout products are at recognizing them . The techniques we’ll cover will get you thinking about how well you know your network, and the monitoring practices you can put in place to make it more secure . 13
