whitepaper IT Analysis - The Mounting Address Problem2009-01-16 Quocirca
  There was time when every person had just one or two addresses associated with them-that of their home and, perhaps, place of work. The addresses specified in which building they lived or worked, on what street, the town it was located in and, for international purposes, the country. More recently, the growth in electronic networks has led to the number of such identifiers expanding. They are all now accustomed, for example, to having one or more email addresses. These don't specify necessarily to a person looking at or using the email address where that person is located, but those specifications are still required behind the scenes in order to route that email to the intended recipient.

whitepaper Implementation of an On-Demand Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks2009-01-01 University of Twente
  This paper presents their experiences in implementing and validating the on-demand EYES Source Routing protocol (ESR) in a real Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) environment. ESR has a fast recovery mechanism relying on MAC layer feedback to overcome frequent network topology changes resulting from node mobility and unreliability. A geographically restricted directional flooding scheme reduces energy consumption in the route re-establishment. ESR is implemented in their WSN environment consisting of EYES sensor node prototypes using the Lightweight Medium Access Control protocol (LMAC) on top of the AmbientRT operating system. They describe the key design and implementation features of the protocol and report experiment results of ESR and Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector protocol (AODV), a conventional routing protocol for ad hoc networks.

whitepaper An Overview of the Cisco Unified IP Phone2008-08-22 Cisco Systems
  The Cisco Unified IP Phone 7962G and 7942G are full-feature telephones that provide voice communication over an Internet Protocol (IP) network. The Cisco Unified IP Phone functions much like a digital business phone, allowing one to place and receive phone calls and to access features such as mute, hold, transfer, speed dial, call forward, and more. In addition, because the phone is connected to data network, it offers enhanced IP telephony features, including access to network information and services, and customizeable features and services. The phone also supports security features that include file authentication, device authentication, signaling encryption, and media encryption.

whitepaper IP-based Wireless Sensor Network for Asset Tracking and Management2008-08-03
  This white paper gives an introduction of how to utilize Sensinode IP-based 6LoWPAN (Internet Protocol), wireless sensor and embedded networking technology in asset tracking and management. To monitor and manage enterprise assets is a huge task and has been basically impossible until today, at least on a large scale, in real-time and with low cost. New innovations and extended capabilities of low power wireless communication technology are the key factors enabling real-time asset tracking and management in almost any field and for any purpose.

whitepaper Comparison of FTP and Signiant: An In-Depth Comparison of FTP With Methodologies From Signiant2008-06-18 Signiant
  FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used to perform file transfers over Internet Protocol (IP) networks such as the public Internet and corporate intranets. FTP is widely deployed and is widely accepted as a file transfer solution. However, are there downsides to using FTP for file transfers? This paper compares FTP with file transfer methodologies of Signiant's software applications and identifies the shortcomings of FTP that Signiant was designed to overcome.

whitepaper IPv6: Why Move to the Next Generation of the Internet Protocol?2008-05-01 Dell
  The vast majority of networks today, including the Internet, are based on the Internet Protocol, version 4 (IPv4) protocol. Developed over 25 years ago, IPv4 is showing its age. Its 32-bit addressing cannot accommodate the explosive growth worldwide of network-connected devices, particularly in Asia and China. It is estimated that the world may run out of IP addresses as early as 2010-2013. Moreover, IPv4 was not designed with security in mind and its security solutions have not kept pace with the expanding requirements of IP-based networks. These deficiencies are addressed by IPv6. Dell is quickly moving to meet DoD requirements, as well as those of the customers in Asia and the rest of the world.

whitepaper User Registration and Login Methods0000-00-00 AlphaToGo
  Today, developers can choose among several different methods to allow users to register and gain access (login) to their Internet-based application. Although some are more popular than others, the method selected should be appropriate to the nature of the online application and the type of user expected, as well as provide for application security, data security and dynamic data filtering.

The purpose of this article is to review the most popular methods for online registration and login, the individual components of those methods, and to provide a general guide to web application developers incorporating user registration and login into their applications.

whitepaper 7 Things Every System Administrator Should Know About OpenSSH2007-09-04 Global Knowledge
  OpenSSH provides a powerful and flexible tool for system administrators, but like any powerful tool, without a proper understanding, its potential may be wasted or, worse, it may become a liability. This white paper provides a brief introduction to several techniques for getting the most out of this tool.

whitepaper Sprint IPv6 Services2007-09-01 Sprint
  Sprint Nextel (Sprint) has led efforts to standardize, test, and deploy Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) since 1997. As an early adopter of IPv6 in an experimental capacity, Sprint builds upon knowledge gained through operating an IPv6 test-bed and encourages standardization and evolution of the IPv6 protocol. Sprint networks and services migrate to IPv6 not only to support wireless, wireline, and converged IP architecture objectives, but also to provide IPv6 services to customers and enable federal agencies to comply with IPv6 mandates. Dedicated IP services continue to be available from Sprint to assist with IPv6 testing and evaluation. Dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 MPLS VPN services offer network-based IP VPN support for customers interested in deploying an IPv6-capable backbone.

whitepaper IPv6 Usage With Various Operating Systems2007-09-01 Dell
  In a nutshell, IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) is the successor to the most common Internet Protocol today (IPv4). This is largely driven by the fact that IPv4's 32-bit address is quickly being consumed by the ever-expanding sites and products on the internet. IPv6's 128-bit address space should not have this problem for the foreseeable future. Additionally, the industry expects the US Federal government to start requiring IPsec (IP security) as part of the IPv6 requirements after June 30th 2008 in their RFQs for most products.
