2 Outline 1. Mission of R&E Networks 2. CESNET Integrated Facility 3. Advanced services of CESNET IF 4. Carrier Ethernet in CESNET Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 2

3 Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 3 Extensions of the R&E networks - Motivation To use the full potential of global networking Applications running in parallel to Internet Experimental networks (testbeds), research and science support To use resources more effectively (especially fiber footprint) To activate new requirements of users Demanding real time applications Network control of instruments and processes Network Aided Design

4 Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 4 Recommendations of the 7th CEF Networks Workshop (1) provide reliable environment for innovations especially by end users test and deploy leading-edge components and devices requested by new applications provide space for unconventional ideas and set-ups collaborate with vendors on scientific and pilot projects not known from telco networks and services develop multi-vendor experimental facilities available to end users ensure possibilities of CBFs are evaluated and used

5 Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 5 Recommendations of the 7th CEF Networks Workshop (2) ensure that new applications like atomic clocks comparison or ultra-stable frequency transfer are not blocked in NRENs investigate possibilities for dark fiber testbed in European scale investigate possibilities of alien wavelengths deployment especially in international environment recollect that not only high speed (100G and beyond) networking is cutting-edge but new networking topics arrived collaborate actively with new projects (e.g. metrology) and provide information on how NRENs can help and provide new services

6 Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 6 Extensions of the R&E networks mission Development towards Integrated Facility which: Is available to users in form of Facility as a Service (FaaS) Integrates production network services, experimental facility services, testbed services, network fabric services, etc. Enables potentially disruptive experimentation, keeping production network services running reliably Share Fiber footprint for all its services (production, experimental and potentially disruptive) Is built on a System of interconnected computer networks

7 Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 7 System of interconnected computer networks Wikipedia: The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks The situation was changed: The Internet is one application of a global system of interconnected computer networks Non-Internet Applications (NIAs) running in parallel to the internet. Precise time and frequency transfer Remote instrument control and monitoring Time-critical real-time applications The future Internet will probably include a part of today s NIAs. Photonic services enable the building of Integrated Facility.

8 Disruptive network technologies? A number of testbeds have been funded in recent years to explore and prototype the dynamic instantiation of insulated network environments that can be used to test and evaluate disruptive network technologies. It is affordable from cost point of view for lambda testbeds and higher layers! The purpose of dark fibre experimentation is very different: to prepare cost effective use of dark fibres for needs of R&E Community. These technologies require realistic traffic loads in order to evaluate network behaviour at scale. Proved approach is: Design and testing period (typically about 3 month) for understanding risks of disruption and to reach stable solution setup for example to avoid negative mutual influence of adjacent channels Long term operation period with parallel running of experimental and production services (for example frequency transfer on RENATER backbone or time transfer on Prague-Vienna line) Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 8

9 Importance Integrated facility brings freedom in experimentation on networks. Independence on traditional network architectures and protocols Various scientific, engineering and technical fields will benefit from the NIAs. Metrology (time and frequency), fundamental physics, geophysics, nextgeneration network synchronization, essential timing backup for vital systems in case of GPS outages (mobile telecom network, power grid, ) Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 9

11 Integrated Facility in Prague Use for experimental and regular traffic Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 11

12 Integrated Facility in CESNET To divide CEF Network fibers into production and experimental footprint is considered harmful. it is useful to enable experiments on the production network (for experts) Test of multivendor 100 Gb/s data transmissions ( it is useful to enable production traffic on experimental lines (it is effective to use free bandwidth) Deployment of one s own R&D results Verification of R&D results Increasing FaaS strength in limited funding real-life large examples: single fiber bidirectional lines, Open DWDM photonic system developed by CESNET Copenhagen, November 21th, 2012 Network Architects Workshop 12
