Network Management track

Friday, October 17, 2014 from 1:00 – 3:45pm
Room 2
 

The pervasive use of networking by household appliances, sensor networks, manufacturing equipment, and even automobiles is posing quite a few challenges to network management. One of the nice things about network management tools is that there are so many of them to choose from, including NetworkManager, ConnMan, systemd, and wicked. This situation brings up questions about improved code sharing among these projects, interoperability for the inevitable situation where more than one is in use, and handoff of network configuration information.

This microconference will feature important discussions on other topics as well, including security issues, tethering, the interactions between NFS root filesystems and DHCP leases, the interaction between the various networking stacks and various DNS resolvers, and supporting system services that need some sort of connectivity at system startup (see Bugzilla 728965).
