Cisco Meraki Access Points are a great tool to simplify the implementation of your network - cloud controlled, easy meshing and simple installation. They look great - and offer high speeds. Coupled with auto code upgrades.. what's not to love?

Cisco Artificial Intelligence allows for deep learning to take place on your network. What does that buy you? This means that rather than just having threshold alarms (that keep generating alarms on every issue), you can intelligently decide when to alert - based on the normal network baseline. This cuts down false alarms and let's you focus on real[…]

There is no doubt that for the average CIO of a University that there are some major challenges to take a look at. Concentrating your time and effort to where its most needed is of course sensible and brings the most reward. The question is – what are those challenges?

In terms of networking, educational establishments are often at the forefront of the technology wave.

Cisco Meraki is a cloud based networking solution. Meraki offers a range of products and in this blog, we'll take a look at the wireless portfolio. The concept of cloud networking really means that while you still have on-premise networking equipment, it connects automatically to the cloud, where it can be managed. No more console cables!

This is part 2 of my blog series on rapid prototyping without any real networking equipment. In part 1 I covered PAP and CHAP authentication and later on in part 3 we will be covering EAP-TLS (X.509 certificate based) authentication.

The intention of this blog series is to help Radius Server administrators test their configurations - mostly for purposes of learning and rapid prototyping configurations. In part 2 we will cover the use of EAP-PEAP authentication and in part 3 we covering testing of authentication.

Zero Trust Architecture is all about providing a much higher level of security for your users, devices and data, than we've had in the past. The key concept is to only provide access strictly where it is required - hence the Zero Trust. In this blog, we'll take a look at the how you can approach a ZTA deployment.
