Network Management
Russell Housley
There is never enough network bandwidth. New uses of the network are bringing even greater demands. Network management must ensure availability of network resources for mission critical applications, on the battlefield and in the supporting infrastructure. This may require real-time tuning of battlefield applications. This session will provide insight from the lessons learned at recent exercises. This session will also explore the use of policy-based management and network-aware applications as part of an overall network management system.
