The ALASCA Tech-Talks provide a platform to showcase solutions that have the potential to improve the digital sovereignty of cloud infrastructures and services, as well as for use cases that rely on these digital sovereign infrastructures and services.
This is where techies meet techies. They are united by their conviction in open source software for the operation of cloud applications and the common goal of establishing digital sovereignty in Germany and Europe.
The ALASCA Tech-Talks have been held once a month since January 2023 and enjoy a loyal listenership. You too can become part of our ALASCA Tech-Talks - whether as a listener, co-discussant or speaker. We look forward to seeing you!
Look forward to the following Tech-Talk in March:
ALASCA Tech-Talk #36
Continually monitor (your) IX Peering LANs
Tassilo Tanneberger (Chairman of the Board at DD-IX e.V.)
Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) are platforms where networks meet. The exchange point must be reliable to ensure traffic flows smoothly between peers. To enhance the reliability of the peering LAN, monitoring is essential. IXpect addresses this need by continuously monitoring Broadcast, Unicast, and Multicast (BUM) traffic within the peering LAN. By detecting packets that are either unexpected or faulty, IXpect notifies IXP administrators, allowing them to work with the administrator of the misconfigured network to resolve the issue. This talk will explain how IXpect works and how you can use it even if you are not running an IXP.
