Howard C. Berkowitz is Chief Technology Officer of Gettlabs and Gett
Communications. He is responsible for Gettlabs' virtual labs and his other
work includes routing protocol research and design of life-critical medical
networks. Current IETF work includes drafts on BGP convergence time,
multihoming, and analyzing growth in the global routing table. He is the
author or coauthor of several RFCs in IP addressing and international
standards in performance testing. He is a member of Team B in the Internet
Research Task Force, which is developing requirements for the successor to
BGP and works with international operations forums such as NANOG, ARIN, and
RIPE.
In the past, he was Senior Advisor, IP Routing, in Nortel's corporate R&D;
laboratory. His research interests include the design of next-generation
carrier routers, unicast routing protocols (BGP, OSPF, ISIS) and the overall
problems of Internet routing system scalability. He was the internal
co-manager for Nortel contributions to the Routing Area of the IETF and to
the IETF and international operations forums such as NANOG and RIPE.
He became a Certified Cisco Systems Instructor in 1993, doing both network
design and education. His certification is inactive because he no longer
works for a Training Partner. He contributed to Cisco courses including Cisco
Internetwork Design and Advanced Router Configuration as well as to Cisco
seminars in switching, virtual private networks, and data-voice-video
integration. He has also taught Cisco WAN products, and developed his own
seminars in Internet routing with BGP and advanced interior routing and
switching.
His operational experience includes consulting on design for a variety of
advanced healthcare networks, broadband provider networks, the US government
Y2K Information Center, US government networks including the Library of
Congress, AT&T;, Lucent, and advising MCI on an assortment of worldwide
customer networks.
Howard's latest book is Building Service Provider Networks. His previous
books include the WAN Survival Guide, which deals with making choices about
which service level agreements are needed and how to select technologies to
meet them. His other books are Designing Addressing Architectures
for Routing and Switching, and Designing Routing and
Switching Architectures for Enterprise Networks. In addition, he
has written dozens of articles for the industry press and spoken at numerous
trade shows and user groups.
