Virtualization features, allowing the creation and operation of multiple servers on one physical device, and clusters of servers which interact with each other much the same as servers act in the real world - providing opportunities for building simulations of new technologies in multiple server environments.Junos® operating system, a single OS operating across Juniper’s routing, switching and security solutions, to maximize network performance and security.Services Gateways (secure routing and firewall with Unified Threat Management consisting of Intrusion Prevention System, Anti-Spam, Anti-Virus and Web Filtering solutions).Juniper Networks EX4200 Ethernet Switches.A November 2010, 360 Environmental Scan, presentation by Public Sector Consultants indicates occupations in the information technology, defense, and security industries will be among the fastest growing in Michigan until 2020. Indeed, the United States Department of Labor predicts that careers for network systems and data communications analysts, and computer/network security will be among the fastest-growing occupations due to the importance of defending against the increasing sophistication of cyber attacks. The lab enhances an already strong program that prepares students for careers in this growing field. The lab will also be used to simulate networked economies.īusiness faculty members also use this advanced lab to conduct research and explore issues relating to virtualization, surveillance, and information systems security. Thanks to a generous donation of high-performance networking and security solutions from Juniper Networks and the recognized expertise of SBA faculty members in the field, the SBA's Management Information System program now offers students the unique opportunity to experiment online with network configurations, firewalls, and computer malware. All this will be available to without compromising the security of OU's computing systems or other systems that can be reached through the Internet. Here students have the opportunity to gain real-world knowledge by experimenting online with network configurations, firewalls and computer malware. The Security Network Instructional Lab gives students experiential learning opportunities without compromising the security of OU's computing systems or other systems that can be reached through the Internet.
