MYNIC aims to increase knowledge pool on domain name system (DNS)
SERI KEMBANGAN , 12th July, 2007-- MYNIC, the .my domain administrator
has today announced that it will be conducting a series of training
workshops called .myTraining Workshop Series 2007, on domain name
system's (DNS) latest technologies in August this year.
.myTraining Workshop Series 2007 is aimed at increasing the knowledge
pool on DNS by providing the academia, researchers, practitioners in
IT community as well as the general public real life, practical
approaches on the latest technologies used to enable easy, fast
accessibility and management of domain names.
The .myTraining Workshop Series 2007 will also be the platform to
share ideas and knowledge on key technologies that will have an impact
on how domain name systems will be managed, accessed and deployed in
the near future, namely:
a) IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) technology
IPv6 is a technology that will resolve and overcome many of the
serious limitations of the current Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4),
as it is designed to allow steady growth of the Internet and allow for
greater efficiency and security. It also has the ability to expand the
address space from 32-bit to 128-bit. IPv6 technology will also be
able to generate 340 octillion (340 billion, billion, billion) of
available address space. This would mean, even devices such as mobile
phones and electrical appliances can have their own IP addresses
b) ENUM (Telephone Number Mapping) technology
ENUM is a DNS-based protocol to unify the telephone system with the
Internet by using a Dynamic Discovery Delegation System (DDDS)
application to resolve telephone numbers into data stored in DNS
c) VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) technology
VoIP is a technology that allows telephone calls to be made over
computer networks like the Internet. VoIP converts analog voice
signals into digital data packets and supports real-time, two-way
transmission of conversations using Internet Protocol (IP). VoIP
offers a substantial cost savings over traditional long distance
telephone calls.
d) DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) technology
DNSSEC technology is the latest technological innovation that protects
the DNS from security breaches. When deployed, it helps authenticate
data on DNS, provides data integrity and authenticates denial of
existence.
"Convergence of emerging technologies is already happening. We must
keep pace with these emerging technologies if we do not want to be
left behind. The number of knowledge workers in the country need to be
elevated at a faster rate if we are to become a knowledge economy and
a developed country by the year 2020," said Puan Shariya Haniz
Zulkifli, Director of MYNIC Berhad adding that MYNIC successfully
nurtured the country's first DNS community last year through its
.myTraining Workshop Series 2006.
Following last year's success, MYNIC is enhancing its training
initiatives this year. Participants can expect more comprehensive
training workshop syllabus, detailed hands-on exercise, exposure to
dual stack network environment that support IPv4 & IPv6 as well as
getting real life, practical experiences and approaches from trainers
who are experts in their respective fields.
"The worlds of IT and telecommunications are getting more and more
integrated. These two worlds will one day become one. As such, it is
best we start looking at the trends and challenges of integrating and
deploying these technologies and address the issues at hand," added
Shariya.
.myTraining Workshop Series 2007 will be held at the Palace of Golden
Horses hotel from 20 th to 30 th August, 2007 and has been designed to
encompass the skill sets of ISPs (Internet Service Providers),
educationists, researchers, country code top level domain name (ccTLD)
operators, DNS administrators and providers, systems administrators as
well as DNS enthusiasts who are interested in utilizing DNS and its
related applications.
The .myTraining Workshop Series 2007 will comprise of:
i) Knowing Your DNS and Impact of IPv6 on DNS (20 th – 21 st August, 2007)
This workshop aims to enable participants gain sufficient background,
skills and expertise to deploy DNSIPv6 in their own organizations.
Participants will be given valuable tips and hands-on exercises on
techniques and tools to help troubleshoot server configurations, from
building primary and secondary name server to populating DNS server
with AAAA records to configuring it to perform lookups to debugging a
zone file. They will also get to partake in the .myDNSIPv6 test-bed
and review the results instantly.
ii) Revelation of ENUM and VoIP in Next Generation Networks (NGN) (23
rd – 25 th August, 2007)
Apart from providing participants updates and latest trends on ENUM
and VoIP technologies, trainers will also guide them on how to install
and configure Asterisk, one of the most popular and fully featured
open source PBXs available. Hands-on development of applications
running on the infrastructure of an integrated telephony and Internet
system will also be given. These applications include database
integration, interactive voice response (IVR) applications, billing
systems, queuing / helpdesk systems, as well as integration with
external applications.
iii) DNS Security (DNSSEC) At Its Best! (28 th – 30 th August, 2007)
At this workshop participants will get to build their DNS in such a
way that it is trusted by end users, one that gives them the assurance
of getting the correct authenticity and integrity of the data it
provides. As such, this workshop intends to enlighten the participants
on the various features of the DNSSEC as well as its related
configuration and troubleshooting tools. Trainers will be providing
hands-on real life, practical approaches at this workshop.
"There have been many key developments in DNS technology and it is
important for Malaysians to keep themselves updated. This is what
these workshops are all about, to help keep our technical community
well informed with the current trends and technologies, so that, they,
in turn, can assess the impact it might have on their businesses and
operations. I believe those who participate will benefit greatly from
these workshops," Shariya affirmed.
Each workshop is limited to only 30 participants, thus registration
will be on a first-come-first- served basis. Interested parties can
register online at www.mynic.net. my/training/ AUG07/ .
