Interoperable Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), Directory Services, and Security

In order to achieve an organization's network application performance and functional objectives, and make for more manageable and effective deployments, an integrated "Network Application Framework" design approach must be taken. Eric Greenberg will address key areas of framework integration: Virtual Private Networks (VPN) including IPSEC, PPTP, and L2TP; Directory Services including LDAP, NDS, and X.500; Single sign-on and network/application security services including Certificates, Kerberos, and SSL/TLS; and integration of disparate networking architectures including TCP/IP, IBM SNA, and NetWare.
