Abstract

UTnet is the name attributed to the assembled media, communication devices, and services that implement the institutional inter-networking infrastructure at UT Austin. Serving over 40,000 end systems, its architecture is representative of many of today's large enterprise inter-networks. This talk will examine UTnet's organization and performance from the perspective of the various design considerations/constraints that have influenced its development.
