Why are we here? • Large Amounts of Bandwidth • University Partnerships • Sharing Lessons & Knowledge • Being Ready for the Next Big Thing • Moving Technology into Production Faster
Hurdles for High Performance Applications • Networks • High Latency • High Bandwidth • Public Accessibility • TCP • Security / Encryption • Data Speeds
The Corporate Perspective • Looking for the common ground – Not Looking to Push the Newest Technology • Global Differences – MAN’s, LAN’s & WAN’s • Applications – Run the Business • SECURITY – SECURITY – SECURITY • How do We Apply Lessons Learned

Securing the Network • VPN Tunnels • Internet2 Public Access • Multiple sites • Firewalls • Hardware • Things to watch for • Monitoring • Being Proactive
VPN Tunnels • Secure vs. Open Ended • Latency • Protocol Dependent • Design is Very Important !
Public Internet2 Access • Convenience? • True Life Testing • A Very Real Scenario Needed
Firewalls • Hardware • How to Choose • Differences • Things to Watch for • Avoidance is the Best Solution
