Abstract

An infected student machine spewing ARP calls chokes a switch and takes down a whole building and generates 40 calls to the help desk. This session will discuss a new network architecture that uses Layer 3 switching technology to isolate each jack on its own subnet to minimize malware outbreaks, user-caused network outages, and calls to the help desk.
