DNS Survival Guide
|
| Date/Time |
10:00 AM to 10:45 AM
|
| Location |
Ellington Ballroom |
| Presenters |
- Speaker
- Artyom Gavrichenkov, Qrator Labs CZ
- CTO at Qrator Labs, a DDoS mitigation and network monitoring company. Graduated from Moscow State University, faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics; has been working in the area of IT networking and monitoring for a decade. Has previously been presenting at numerous conferences, including BlackHat USA, RIPE Meeting, APNIC/APRICOT, and ICANN EE DNS Forum.
|
| Abstract |
A contemporary network service heavily depends on domain name system operating normally. Yet, often issues and caveats of typical DNS setup are being overlooked. DNS (like BGP before) is expected to "just work" everywhere, however, just as BGP, this is a complex protocol and a complex solution where a lot of things could go wrong in multiple ways under different circumstances.
This talk is supposed to provide some assistance both in maintaining your own DNS infrastructure and in relying on service providers doing this. |

OpenDaylight as a Platform for Network Programmability
|
| Date/Time |
10:45 AM to 11:30 AM
|
| Location |
Ellington Ballroom |
| Presenters |
- Speaker
- Charles Eckel, Cisco Systems
- Charles is a developer evangelist in the Cisco DevNet team with a passion for open source software and open standards. He started with open source in 1999 as a founding member of Vovida Networks, developing some of the industry’s first open source VoIP protocol stacks and applications. Now at Cisco, he is a recognized champion of open standards, open source, and interoperability. He runs DevNet’s Open Source Dev Center, which focuses on Cisco’s major open source contributions, use, and community engagements; most notably, introducing open source hackathons into IETF and MEF, revolutionizing the way these SDOs operate and uniting open source software with open standards to maximize the pace and relevance of both.
|
| Abstract |
Software Defined Networking (SDN) may have started as the separation of the control plane and the data plane, but the true power lies in the ability to communicate with the network through well defined interfaces using standard protocols. This session provides a brief intro to SDN in general, and more specifically to OpenDaylight, an open source platform for programmable SDN. Next we dive into network programmability, including why we need it and the role of NETCONF, YANG, and RESTCONF. Then we put the theory into practice as we install OpenDaylight as use it a platform for programming a sample network.
Audience: The audience is network engineers and software developers interested in OpenDaylight, SDN, and/or network programmability. Attendees can expect to get an introduction to SDN, OpenDaylight, NETCONF, YANG, and RESTCONF. They will walk away with an understanding of what network programmability is, why it is important, and how OpenDaylight can be used as a platform for it. |

RSVP-TE Pop&Go: Using a shared MPLS forwarding plane

| Abstract |
RSVP-TE is widely deployed in backbone networks and is used for its rich feature benefits (such as admission control, auto-bandwidth, Fast Reroute, Container LSPs). Coupling these feature benefits of the RSVP-TE control plane with the simplicity of the Segment Routing MPLS forwarding plane allows significant reduction in forwarding plane state by sharing transit labels across LSPs. This session will describe draft-sitaraman-mpls-rsvp-shared-labels introducing the notion of pre-installed 'per Traffic Engineering (TE) link labels' that can be shared by MPLS RSVP-TE LSPs that traverse these TE links. These labels reduce the overall data plane churn during LSP setup and teardown and provide further decoupling from the forwarding plane. Forwarding from the ingress is achieved using label stacking in RSVP-TE. Pop&Go tunnels offer a self-contained solution to automatically delegate label stack imposition to transit hops to manage any label stack push depth limitations at the ingress. The solution works with distributed path setup as well as with a centralized controller to traffic engineer paths in the network.

| Abstract |
In this tutorial, the attendees will go over the basics of Denial of Service attacks and network technology pertaining to them.
The tutorial goes over the OSI network layers and what function they fulfill and what is vulnerable to attack in those layers both at the hardware and software layers.
The tutorial then focuses on, and explains in detail, all the currently popular attacks: reflection (DNS, NTP, SSDP), SYN flood, Sloworis, etc.
The tutorial is vendor agnostic and focuses on network technologies. |

Lightning Talk: Device vs Service models in Network Automation
|
| Date/Time |
3:00 PM to 3:10 PM
|
| Location |
Ellington Ballroom |
| Presenters |
- Speaker
- Dean Bogdanovic
|
| Abstract |
Network operators are increasingly adopting automation, but most networks today are managed as a set of individual devices. Further, approximately 70% of network operators still use CLI as the main management interface. One of the main reason is the lack of common data models, driven by divergent approaches taken by competing vendors. This has led to grassroots efforts to create common models that are accessible understandable machine-readable language. With the increased availability of devices supporting NETCONF and YANG data models, focus is shifting from device management to network services. The models that we use are evolving from device models to service models. Today there are hundreds of device data models, but very few service data models. This lightning talk is going to introduce the idea with some examples. |

Lightning Talk: Why we need an International cyber-attribution organization?
|
| Date/Time |
3:10 PM to 3:20 PM
|
| Presenters |
- Speaker
- Milton Mueller
|
| Abstract |
The US recently made a public attribution of the NotPetya attack to the government of Russia.
This lightning talk would discuss the problem of cyber attribution among state actors. We wish to discuss the possible benefits, drawbacks and practical feasibility of creating a new, International Attribution Organization (IAO) led by non-state actors. Currently, attributions lack credibility because they are not made in an organized and transparent way, and get drawn into geopolitical rivalries among governments.
The key insight of this proposal is that the achievement of authoritative attributions is not just a product of forensics and computer science, but has social-psychological and institutional aspects as well. The science and technology of attribution must be supplemented by the creation of fair and independent processes that include key participants, and whose attribution decisions are widely perceived as unbiased, legitimate and valid, even among parties who might be antagonistic. This idea builds on the Microsoft proposal but we think the IAO should be a global, private sector initiative (similar to an RIR) rather than part of a formal intergovernmental treaty. |
