Cisco Software-Defined Access (SDA) -  Published December 7th, 2017 by Jeff Dixon

It’s that time again, posting some more of my latest work.

Cisco Campus Fabric, ACI, APIC-EM, VXLAN, LISP, Cisco TrustSec SGT, DNA Center, Software-Defined Networking (SDN)

If any of that interest you, you come to the right place. If you don’t know what it is, you’re also in the right place. Weather you a leader, network engineer, or just learning, there is something for everyone here.

This paper is a ground up discussion covering Cisco’s unique approach called software-defined access. The general idea is the creation of a single plane-of-glass management system to provision, secure, monitor, and analyze your network.

This is a very exciting advancement and this paper will cover all the information you need to start your journey down this path.

Infosec Writers (SDN)

Just today I had a paper published on InfoSec Writers and wanted to share the link for those that might be interested.

The paper is a fairly in-depth dive starting from ground zero into understanding Software Defined Networking (SDN). When I began, I chose this topic because in all honesty, I knew very little about the topic and knew it was a quickly evolving technology that I needed to get up to speed on. After a large amount of reading and research on the topic, I was able to form this paper. It could have easily been significantly longer but I believe it was adequate for establishing an initial understanding of the technology.



Previous writing... on the same site, I also wrote another paper around wireless IDS and policy. It may be gaining some age considering the rate at which wireless has changed, however, much of it may still be relevant. This paper was entitled: Wireless Intrusion Detection Systems Including Incident Response & Wireless Policy
