LISA Build: Mind. Blown.

Invited Talk
Wednesday, November 12, 2014 - 4:00pm-4:45pm

Branson Matheson, Blackphone, and Brett Thorson, Cranial Thunder Solutions

Abstract: 

You may not have known it, but you were a (small) part of LISA Build this year. When you walked into the Grand Ballrooms on Tuesday morning, you saw two new access points (Usenix-5Ghz and Usenix 2Ghz). Behind those access points was a team of people who arrived onsite early to build a network from scratch using interesting gear, a lot of technical glue, and plenty of experience. Come to this talk to ask the team questions; hear about what we learned about while building, running, and destroying a network in seven days; and how you can be a part of LISA Build 2015.
