Overlay transport virtualization (OTV) can help solve many of the challenges in today's increasingly virtualized and geographically dispersed data centers. Access this paper for a high-level overview of this technology and how it differs from the alternatives. 

For many years network administrators have expected security breaches to come from outside an organization or at the upper layers of the OSI model. This paper will focus on securing layer 2 switching at the access layer through port security and preventing denial of service (DoS) attacks at layer 2. 

This paper  examines the big picture when it comes to Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), and what happens when a data packet traverses an MPLS cloud. 

Access this white paper to learn how segmenting the network infrastructure of your data center into smaller pieces provides clarity on networking requirements and discover the ability to make better vendor decisions at each network layer. 

Secure Sockets Layer virtual private networks compose a mature market segment, serving a variety of VPN use cases for workstations and mobile-device remote access. In this Magic Quadrant, Gartner examines the role of SSL VPNs in remote access and the state of the market. 

Virtual data centers must adhere to the same information security requirements physical data centers including, security posture, compliance, threat awareness and mitigation and more. View this resource to uncover how to meet these needs with a multi-layer security approach. 

Any virtualization layer or hypervisor introduces a new set of demands to a server or blade environment. This e-book explains the process of virtualizing the I/O layer, how to manage it and what challenges remain for this disruptive technology.
