I’ve been watching For All Mankind and it got me thinking about networking in space… TTLs, 64k packets, transmission mediums, etc. As a ‘network generalist,’ I find more and more niches to deep dive into… If you specialize in a certain networking niche, what is it? Would you consider networking in space?

    If I had a niche in networking that I specialize in, it would be ‘border security.’ It makes me laugh that everyone in security markets zero trust and CASB and says networks are ‘borderless’ - it’s just not true. I am constantly dealing with borders between ‘fabrics’ and locations. Maybe I’m just a dullard, but I see the niche I am working in only become more important as we move to the cloud and distributed networking and security paradigms.
