Upgrade to the next generation of campus networks

Attend this web seminar to gain valuable insights into the best ways of upgrading networks at your institution. Learn how Gordon College has embarked on a fourth-generation upgrade and redesign of its campus network infrastructure to better meet the needs of campus users.  Improvements include upgraded firewalls, added redundancy and improved user profile management to maintain a secure and reliable network while meeting demand for more high-bandwidth applications, content and services in an increasingly BYOD environment.

This case study from Gordon College will also cover:

  • How upgrading the access network drove the need to upgrade the core network, and to position data centers and the data network for future technology evolution.
  • How the college replaced hundreds of servers with virtual machines.
  • How Alcatel-Lucent’s data center switching architecture is helping Gordon prepare for increased virtualization of network resources in the future.


Scheduled speakers include:
Russ Leathe, Director of Network and Computer Operations, Gordon College
Greg Kovich, Director of Business Development, Alcatel-Lucent

Who will benefit:
College and university CIOs and other higher ed technology leaders. Anyone may register.
