ADVISORY/ Juniper Networks Participates At 16th Annual Next Generation Networks Conference.Business/Technology Editors ADVISORY...for Tues. - Fri. (Oct. 15 - 18) --(BUSINESS WIRE) Juniper Networks Juniper Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: JNPR) is an information technology company based in Sunnyvale, California and founded in 1996. The company designs and sells Internet Protocol network products and services. , Inc. (Nasdaq: JNPR JNPR Juniper Networks, Inc. (stock symbol) ) Company Demonstrates First Production-Ready GMPLS (Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching) In a WDM optical networking system, it is the ability to route a data transmission based on the wavelength of light that carries it. Solution and Participates in First Multi-vendor Interoperability The capability of two or more hardware devices or two or more software routines to work harmoniously together. For example, in an Ethernet network, display adapters, hubs, switches and routers from different vendors must conform to the Ethernet standard and interoperate with each other. Demonstration
Where: Next Generation Networks Conference, Marriott Copley
Place, Boston, Mass. Juniper Networks is exhibiting at
Booth #231.
What: GMPLS Interoperability Demonstration
Juniper Networks, the first router vendor to ship a
production-ready Generalized Multi-protocol Label
Switching (GMPLS) solution, is participating in the
world's first public multi-vendor GMPLS interoperability
test. The GMPLS interoperability test will validate the
speed and ease of provisioning enabled by GMPLS in a live,
multi-vendor network.
Juniper Networks is among seven vendors who took part in
five days of extensive testing activities conducted at the
University of New Hampshire InterOperability Labs and
sponsored by the MPLS Forum.
Available in the latest version of JUNOS software, Juniper
Networks GMPLS implementation leverages the company's
recognized leadership in MPLS and extends it to the
optical transport domain. The standards-based approach
implemented by Juniper Networks enables service providers
to achieve significant network efficiencies and
cost-effective operational scale, by providing a common
control plane between the optical transport and Internet
Protocol (IP) data layers. The Juniper Networks solution
provides a highly flexible set of tools to support a range
of deployment models. The result is simplified and more
timely provisioning, lower overall cost of operations, and
improved capacity utilization - all key capabilities for
carriers seeking continued profitability, increased
customer retention, and reduced churn.
Speaking Opportunities
October 15, 2002 at 6:15 p.m., Michael Capuano, Director,
Product Marketing, Juniper Networks, will provide a
company update and speak about Juniper Networks product
portfolio of revenue generating core, edge, mobile, and
cable solutions. Capuano will also discuss recent product
announcements.
October 17, 2002 at 1:30 p.m., Kireeti Kompella,
Distinguished Engineer, Juniper Networks, will discuss
network-based virtual private networks (VPNs) and possible
answers to a variety of site-to-site connectivity problems
that occur when building a VPN. Kompella will also explore
existing alternatives and make recommendations on when and
how these solutions should be used.
October 17, 2002 at 6:15 p.m., Kireeti Kompella,
Distinguished Engineer, Juniper Networks, will participate
in the MPLS Forum discussion of the test plans,
preparation, and results of the multi-vendor GMPLS
interoperability demonstration in which Juniper Networks
participated.
October 18, 2002 at 8:00 a.m., Ross Callon, Distinguished
Engineer, Juniper Networks, will address the need for
carriers to provide Layer 2 services for site-to-site
VPNs. Callon will focus on the MPLS methods, including
draft Martini and draft Kompella, that are being
considered as a viable solution to enable Layer 2 VPN
transport. Callon will also discuss the performance,
manageability, availability, and costs associated with
these methods.
October 18, 2002 at 9:45 a.m., Kurt Melden, Chief
Scientist, Juniper Networks, will address the suitability
of IP VPNs operating at Layer 3, as a source for Internet
Service Providers (ISPs) to garner additional revenue,
while continuing to meet customer expectations for
security and performance. Melden will provide insight on
the performance and manageability capabilities of a
variety of multiple architectural approaches, such as the
use of IPSec encrypted tunnels, virtual routing,
BGP/MPLS-VPNs (per RFC 2547), L2TP tunneling, and
IP-enabled Frame Relay.
