z/VM Version 4 Release 4 Networking Choices Moving from Guest LAN to Virtual Switch March 24, 2004 2:30 pm EST (session #112469) http://www.vm.ibm.com/events/march24.html Session Abstract: Perhaps you have already implemented a Linux guest environment using z/VM Version 4 Release 3, and are now preparing to move the environment into production. As part of that process you are also evaluating installation of z/VM Version 4 Release 4 (z/VM V4.4) and wondering whether implementation of new z/VM 4.4 networking capabilities would simplify the routed Guest LAN network you previously implemented. This presentation will begin with an overview of guest networking alternatives provided with both z/VM 4.3 and z/VM 4.4, then focus on comparing Guest LANs with z/VM virtual switches. In addition, the presentation will cover the steps necessary to implement a z/vM virtual switch, and why you might choose one over the other. There will be a Question and Answer session following the presentation. Featured Speaker: Our featured speaker is Richard Lewis. Richard is completing his 20th year with IBM. During this time he has worked as a VM System Programmer, maintaining several large internal IBM VM systems. Over the last 14 years, Richard has been a member of the Washington System Center Advanced Technical Support organization, supporting both z/VM and Linux. As member of the Washington System Center, Richard works closely with z/VM development, IBM customers and IBM Field Technical Specialists providing instruction on z/VM and Linux topics, as well as assisting in the resolution of technical problems. Richard has been working with Linux in an Intel environment for over 4 years, and has worked with the s/390 and zSeries port of Linux since its beginning. Richard was a member of the team that implemented the Linux Community Development System, an IBM mainframe on the Internet supporting independent Open Source developers of Linux software. During his career Richard has also been very active at SHARE as both a presenter, and IBM Representative to the VM and Linux project.
