End-to-end Qos Network Design
Author: Tim Szigeti
Publisher: Cisco Press
ISBN: 9781587051760
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 776
Book Description
Best-practice QoS designs for protecting voice, video, and critical data while mitigating network denial-of-service attacks Understand the service-level requirements of voice, video, and data applications Examine strategic QoS best practices, including Scavenger-class QoS tactics for DoS/worm mitigation Learn about QoS tools and the various interdependencies and caveats of these tools that can impact design considerations Learn how to protect voice, video, and data traffic using various QoS mechanisms Evaluate design recommendations for protecting voice, video, and multiple classes of data while mitigating DoS/worm attacks for the following network infrastructure architectures: campus LAN, private WAN, MPLS VPN, and IPSec VPN Quality of Service (QoS) has already proven itself as the enabling technology for the convergence of voice, video, and data networks. As business needs evolve, so do the demands for QoS. The need to protect critical applications via QoS mechanisms in business networks has escalated over the past few years, primarily due to the increased frequency and sophistication of denial-of-service (DoS) and worm attacks. End-to-End QoS Network Design is a detailed handbook for planning and deploying QoS solutions to address current business needs. This book goes beyond discussing available QoS technologies and considers detailed design examples that illustrate where, when, and how to deploy various QoS features to provide validated and tested solutions for voice, video, and critical data over the LAN, WAN, and VPN. The book starts with a brief background of network infrastructure evolution and the subsequent need for QoS. It then goes on to cover the various QoS features and tools currently available and comments on their evolution and direction. The QoS requirements of voice, interactive and streaming video, and multiple classes of data applications are presented, along with an overview of the nature and effects of various types of DoS and worm attacks. QoS best-practice design principles are introduced to show how QoS mechanisms can be strategically deployed end-to-end to address application requirements while mitigating network attacks. The next section focuses on how these strategic design principles are applied to campus LAN QoS design. Considerations and detailed design recommendations specific to the access, distribution, and core layers of an enterprise campus network are presented. Private WAN QoS design is discussed in the following section, where WAN-specific considerations and detailed QoS designs are presented for leased-lines, Frame Relay, ATM, ATM-to-FR Service Interworking, and ISDN networks. Branch-specific designs include Cisco® SAFE recommendations for using Network-Based Application Recognition (NBAR) for known-worm identification and policing. The final section covers Layer 3 VPN QoS design-for both MPLS and IPSec VPNs. As businesses are migrating to VPNs to meet their wide-area networking needs at lower costs, considerations specific to these topologies are required to be reflected in their customer-edge QoS designs. MPLS VPN QoS design is examined from both the enterprise and service provider's perspectives. Additionally, IPSec VPN QoS designs cover site-to-site and teleworker contexts. Whether you are looking for an introduction to QoS principles and practices or a QoS planning and deployment guide, this book provides you with the expert advice you need to design and implement comprehensive QoS solutions.

Category : Young Adult Fiction

Pages : 81
Book Description
Into the Darkness is about a girl named Moonbeam, who had a challenging childhood and early adulthood. Many years later, she found happiness with a wizard named Lion Heart, giving her and her children a start to a new life. One morning, Moonbeam was woken up by chaos as she discovered three dark portals appearing and killing the ground surrounding them. As she looked into them, she saw glimpses of her past and the pain she thought she had buried. Moonbeam had to go through the three dark portals to find peace and healing with her past in order to save and protect the home she had built with Lion Heart and protect future generations from the destruction that the darkness threatened to unleash. Once Moonbeam did the work to make it through the three portals, she came out to find that the forest outside town was still dying and realized there was more work to be done. In the forest, Moonbeam had to face the monsters such as anger, guilt, and shame that had been created from not dealing with her past for so long. This is when she had to dig deep within herself and find the strength that had been there all along; she just didn't see it. Will the darkness consume her, or will she become the light that leads the way out? As a PTSD survivor, writing this story has been healing in the simple act of writing it for me. I am not a therapist and encourage anyone who needs help to seek the help they need, but I do hope my story will shine a little light in the darkness for others on their path to healing and a brighter future.

Unexpected Healers

Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 73
Book Description
Unexpected Healers is a compilation of true stories about six women (and one adorable child) and the horses who changed their lives. It’s about the horse-human bond and how it opens doors to self-discovery, healing, and forgiveness. Each story invites you into the intimate details of how being in relationship with a horse fosters new levels of growth, learning, and self-understanding. Part I tells the stories of female clients who participated in equine-assisted psychotherapy programs and the horses who played critical roles in their healing. Each of these clients struggled in traditional therapy, unable to undo the damage done in abusive relationships. You will feel as if you are standing at the window of their souls as you witness the courage it took for them to trust, to face their demons, to love, to leave, and to change. The way in which horses brought each of these women to a place of life-changing insights and the ability to start anew is truly awe-inspiring. In Part II, the focus shifts to intimate stories of women and horses outside structured therapy. Experienced horsewomen and novices alike share their poignant memories of horses who taught them to see themselves and the world around them differently. Finally, Part III is a collection of the author’s own stories. As a way of thanking all the women who contributed to this book, she shares her most vulnerable and life-changing equine experiences. She brings the reader along on her journey of overcoming fear, self-doubt, and childhood trauma. As you virtually walk alongside these women, you are bound to feel their struggles, accomplishments, and ultimately, their joy as they heal old wounds and find new ways of being. And without a doubt, you will be touched by the mastery of these horses...the unexpected healers.

Book Description
It all started after Anne made her debut in London and was just starting to get acquainted with possible suitors when her father decided to move his family to Boston in the American colony. The family came across in a British warship captained by her uncle in answer to the Boston Tea Party. While traveling the Atlantic, Anne became acquainted with her uncles second in command, Jonathan Wallace. Once on shore in Boston, they became more than mere friends while her sister began her own kind of rebellion against societies rules. A tragic accident put the little family taking sides within itself as love blossomed. At the same time, a sibling rivalry between her father and his brother, the Captain of the warship, erupted along with gunfire and the famous Boston siege which threatened to part the couple and interrupt a return to England. Meanwhile, Anne ministered to the wounded and made friends with the Indians while looking for her brother in Saratoga as British troops become outnumbered by flintlocks and muskets.
