East Coast Connectivity: East Coast Connectivity IP Services IRNC 10 Gig circuit between Amsterdam and New York City Amsterdam side is a GEANT2 router NYC side is MAN LAN Supports Peering between GEANT2 and MAN LAN connectors, including Internet2 and ESnet GEANT2 funded 10 Gig circuit between Frankfort and Washington, DC Frankfort side is GEANT2 router Washington, DC side is NGIX-East Supports Peering between GEANT2 and NGIX-East connectors, including Internet2 and ESnet


East Coast Connectivity, continued: East Coast Connectivity, continued Circuit Services - support for P2P circuits as needed IEEAF 10 Gig circuit between Amsterdam and New York City Amsterdam side is the NetherLight HDXc New York City side is the MAN LAN HDXc SURFnet 10 Gig circuit between Amsterdam and New York City Amsterdam side is the NetherLight HDXc New York City side is the MAN LAN HDXc Internet2 HOPI 10 Gig circuit between London and New York City London side is Alcatel Equipment NYC side is MAN LAN HDXc


East Coast Connectivity, continued: East Coast Connectivity, continued Circuit Services - support for P2P circuits as needed GEANT2 circuit between Europe and Washington, DC Connects to Alcatel on the European side Connects to NGIX-East Ciena equipment on the Washington, DC side GEANT2 circuit between Paris and New York City Connects to Alcatel on the Paris side Connects to HDXc in MAN LAN on the NYC side MAN LAN and NGIX-East connected to Atlantic Wave


Dynamic Circuit Services in Internet2: Dynamic Circuit Services in Internet2 Intra domain work HOPI The Ciena Network Eventually, the Infinera Platform Inter domain work Collaborations with other networks Following and participating in standards bodies


Internet2 Network: Infrastructure with Multiple Services: Switched WDM Optical Layer Provisioned Services Internet2 Network: Infrastructure with Multiple Services Routed IP Network” “SONET Switched Network” “Ethernet VLAN Switched Network (i.e., HOPI)” Switched SONET Layer (vcat, lcas) Multi-Layer GMPLS Networks Ethernet Layer Router Layer Separate (Peering) Control Plane Instantiations for each of the above


Intra Domain work: Intra Domain work Challenges Multi-vendor environment Multi-layer environment Current Development Concentrating on the Ciena and HOPI platforms, each on a single wave on the Internet2 DWDM Platform Also having discussions with Infinera about “Virtual DWDM” platform HOPI has been in place for several years, and functions as a test-bed The Ciena network is to provided persistent services to applications For example, the LHC project


Ciena Control Plane Work: Ciena Control Plane Work What is the best way to control the Inter domain network Implementation should support a large number of platforms, eventually Evolving to a UNI-2.0 interface at this time It is currently a TL-1 interface Thoughts about using proprietary interfaces have been thoroughly discussed Software platform should be extensible and vendor independent Tremendous support from Ciena on all aspects of this project


Inter Domain Development: Inter Domain Development Primary collaboration is with the DICE group - Dante (GEANT2), Internet2, CANARIE, and Esnet Working closely with ESnet on interfacing OSCARS and HOPI - involves AAA work, using OSCARS interface Reporting back progress to the GLIF and other organizations For example, Phosphorus, in coordination with the SURFnet and University of Amsterdam participants Also having discussions with JGN2 Coordinating with OGF on various schema - topology, path computation, signaling Working with the appropriate standards bodies - ITU, IETF, and OIF


Development Team: Development Team Tom Lehman, Jerry Sobieski leading the efforts Xi Yang Chris Tracy Jarda Fildr Make software available to the community


Multi-Domain Control Plane: Multi-Domain Control Plane RON RON Internet2 Network ESNet Dynamic Ethernet Dynamic Ethernet TDM GEANT IP Network (MPLS, L2VPN) Ethernet Router SONET Switch Ctrl Element Domain Controller LSP Data Plane Control Plane Adjacency Multi-Domain Provisioning Interdomain ENNI (Web Service and OIF/GMPLS) Multi-domain, multi-stage path computation process AAA Scheduling Slide from Tom Lehman
