The goal of this blog is to provide information that would help a networking pro or manager do their job. I hope to provide links to new product information, news announcements, product reviews, tips and tricks and interviews of key industry individuals.

Some of the topics I hope to cover include:
- Open source software for network analysis / management
- SSL VPN
- IPv6
- Network management tools
- Desktop management tools
- Network troubleshooting
- Patch management software and best practices
- Network security and related issues

I'll be culling through press releases and other web resources in an attempt to bring you stuff you can use. I'm also open to questions and comments so feel free to e-mail me or drop a comment to any of the posts.
