Organizations depend on their campuses and branches not only as operational hubs but as vital touchpoints for employees and customers. A poor experience at these locations can erode brand trust, while a seamless, technology-driven experience enhances productivity, satisfaction, and loyalty. With the campus and branch increasingly reliant on robust networks, the stakes for getting it right have never been higher

Software-defined WAN offers organizations flexible connectivity, facilitates cloud strategies and improves application performance, all in a secure environment. It also can improve operational efficiencies and help control or reduce WAN costs. Approaches to SD-WAN implementation and supported capabilities vary from one OEM to another. This briefing will explore four of the top SD-WAN vendors and highlight the innovative features that set each of their solutions apart, including a live demonstration of our on-demand SD-WAN lab environments and explanation of how to access them.

WWT's Multi-Layer Multi-Vendor (MLMV) lab is an innovative and versatile physical lab environment focused on core networking. It is designed to demonstrate the integration of technologies from Layer 0 (the physical layer) to Layer 3 (the network layer) across multiple vendors in a cohesive system. This lab is designed to be custom-tailored to your specific needs. During this briefing, we will share an overview of the MLMV lab environment, discuss our capabilities, and develop a high-level plan to meet your needs.

The Data Center Network (DCN) is essential for supporting high-performance workloads, including Artificial Intelligence (AI). This briefing will explore next-generation data center architectures, highlighting the advantages of using an underlay/overlay topology and controller-based management. As DCN architectures become more complex, day-two operations software becomes increasingly necessary. This session will provide an overview of DCN hardware, architectures, and day-two operations, along with a brief introduction to the most commonly seen DCN OEMs in enterprise data centers.

Consumers' expectations for seamless, surprisingly delightful experiences continue to spiral ever higher. For contact centers, consumers bring expectations that your agents already know who they are, and that they can hop across various channels to get answers to their questions and fixes their problems. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a key technology that can be used to address these challenges, increase CSAT and Net Promoter scores, decrease agent turnover and reduce process inefficiencies through the use of virtual agents and agent augmentation.

SD-Branch is an umbrella label applied to the growing interest in a cloud-managed single vendor stack for the branch. The solution is comprised of SD-WAN, SD-LAN all wrapped in security and often delivered with elements of SASE and SSE. In this briefing we will talk through the strengths and challenges of the top OEM's in this space covering: Cisco-Meraki, Aruba, Juniper/MIst, Nile and Fortinet.

Get an overview and exploration of modern Access Networks and Campus Fabrics. Learn what the major OEMS in this space are offering and how these new technologies, capabilities and features could help enable your organization.

Organizations rely on communicating securely and privately with their customers. What happens when these communication channels are under attack? While AI has enabled many beneficial applications, criminals are finding novel ways to abuse it. The person on the far end of a voice call is becoming much more challenging to authenticate. These new forms of attack must be met with constant vigilance and defense-in-depth. This briefing discusses the threats facing organizations today, how to prepare and remain on guard, and ways to integrate voice security incident response into your disaster recovery plan.

Meetings are integral to how we do business — they're where decisions are discussed and made. Good meetings are simple to schedule and join, and they foster engagement and collaboration from each participant, whether remote or in person. This two- to four-hour briefing will focus on the latest meeting room technologies and explain the various options for simplifying and enhancing the experience across your enterprise.

If you are trying to sort through the marketing hype of Wi-Fi 7 and the blazing fast speeds and features, or wondering the benefits and impact of WPA3, this briefing is for you.

As the capabilities of Core Networks increase, simplified management solutions that unlock their potential become more and more important. Convergence of optical and routing network functions ups the ante even further -- requiring management tools that help streamline new organizational processes. WWT can leverage its heavy investment in core networking technologies to help guide you through the ever-changing landscape of Core Network management.

The most common protocols used in a modern Data Center Network (DCN) are EVPN/VXLAN, while there are many benefits to this underlay/overlay technology, it is extremely complex to implement. Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC) can streamline the process for EVPN/VXLAN campus or DCN networks as well as traditional networks. The platform's user-friendly interface and streamlined workflows simplify the process of fabric management, from initial setup to ongoing maintenance. NDFC supports both greenfield and brownfield deployments, allowing for seamless integration with existing fabrics as well as the creation of new ones. By providing a centralized point of control, NDFC reduces the complexity associated with managing multiple fabrics and sites, ensuring that network operations are efficient and straightforward.
