Phil Bedard, Cisco

I began working at my first ISP at the age of 16, working tech support, building servers, and managing a network of Proteon routers. I continued to work at service providers for over 20 years, most recently as a Principal Engineer at Cox Communications, a position I held for ~9 years. I joined Cisco in March 2017 as a Technical Marketing Engineer in the SP Networking Software and Automation group, focused on network architecture and helping build automation products for the operator community. I have resided in Atlanta, GA for 10 years, originally hailing from SE Wisconsin. I have a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside. In my spare time I enjoy racing in amateur motorsports, backcountry hiking, and tinkering with just about everything.
Abstract: Optimal Route Reflection is a software enhancement to the BGP best-path selection algorithm to eliminate the need for RRs be geographically close to their client. This enhancement along with virtualized RRs provides tremendous flexibility in how operators can deploy RRs today. This general session talk will give an overview of why ORR has come to be, its basic operation, current vendor landscape, deployment options, and how the technology used in ORR may be extended in the future to provide even greater control over the BGP path selection process.
