Information for Presenters

CDMA carriers are upgrading their networks to CDMA2000 1XRTT technology.
1XRTT promises enhanced packet-data services that will enable a broad range
of applications. We intend to investigate the capabilities of this technology.

In addition, we intend to investigate the operation of VPNs across wireless networks,
and to examine wireless security issues in general.

Proposed topics include:

• CDMA2000 1XRTT capabilities, architecture, protocols
• Using VPNs with wireless networks
• Wireless specific VPNs versus conventional VPNs
• Security across heterogeneous (e.g. cellular/WLAN) networks
• Compatibility issues
• IP address management in wireless networks and effect on VPNs
• Status of WLAN security standards
• Other wireless security issues
• Other topics to be determined
