TL;DR: This paper investigates the realization of service provisioning and service management in a telecommunication environment that is based on active networking technology, primarily with respect to customer-provider interactions and outlines a framework that allows customers to access and manage a service in a provider's domain and to outsource a service and its management to a service provider.
Abstract: Active networking, where network nodes perform customized processing of packets, is a rapidly expanding field of research. This paper is based on the assumption that active networking technology will mature to a point where it can be commercially deployed on a larger scale. We investigate the realization of service provisioning and service management in a telecommunication environment that is based on active networking technology, primarily with respect to customer-provider interactions. Compared to conventional networking technology, active networking concepts enable additional flexibility in supporting management tasks. We outline a framework that allows customers, on the one hand, to access and manage a service in a provider's domain, and, on the other hand, to outsource a service and its management to a service provider. Our framework has the properties of supporting: (1) generic, i.e., service-independent, interfaces for service provisioning and management; and (2) customized service abstractions and control functions, according to a customer's requirements. Further, we describe how some of the key concepts of this framework can be realized in an active networking testbed that we are in the process of building.

TL;DR: Policy-based networking (PBN) is gaining a wide acceptance in IP management, resulting in a more unified control and management approach toward complexity ofIP management, and two approaches, policy abstraction and hierarchy organization with precedence rules are proposed and studied.
Abstract: Policy-Based Networking (PBN) is gaining a wide acceptance in 1Pmanagement, resulting in a more unified control and management approach toward complexity of 1Pmanagement. QoS interworking in 1Pmanagement based on PBN is going to provide QoS guaranteedldifferentiated 1P connection services. QoS interworking issues between enterprise network and public 1P network are studied. The exponential growth of intranet/intemet interworking itself may put PBN in jeopardy. To counter the increasing management complexity, two approaches, policy abstraction and hierarchy organization with precedence rules are proposed and studied.

TL;DR: A brief introduction to the IP networking services, how to configure them, and how to set up a relatively secure Linux workstation are given.
Abstract: Linux is a member of the UNIX family but is different than most UNIX implementations because it provides a great UNIX server/workstation environment at a low cost, can be run on a wide variety of platforms, and contains no proprietary code. In this article, we will give a brief introduction to the IP networking services, how to configure them, and how to set up a relatively secure Linux workstation. Please note that the examples given here are from the Slackware distribution. The paths of the files might be different on other distributions of Linux.
