1 NSF Networking Briefing Peter O Neil August 13, 2004

2 Theme Desktop, Campus, Metro, Regional, and National networking interfaces must evolve together for e2e performance as demand warrants, emerging capabilities allow, and resources permit.

3 NCAR Networking

4 Network Conceptual Evolution Business Continuity driving diversity and redundancy Moving from Layer 2 VLANs to Layer 3 routed network LANs support data and VoIP GigE interconnecting campuses Expect to migrate to 10G backbone over next 2-4 years b wireless access within all campuses Copper & Fiber wiring projects support GigE to desktops Support for multicast & IPv6 Extensive security filters on routers to implement policies

5 Boulder Research & Administration Network (BRAN) 11 mile 96 fiber ring around Boulder Shared and operated by: City of Boulder University of Colorado at Boulder NCAR/UCAR NOAA NIST

6 FRGP Colorado, Wyoming, Utah non-profits JSTOR recent new member co-locating at Level 3 in Denver NCAR staff responsible for management, technical, and administrative tasks Denver aggregation point for all external connectivity

7

8 Regional Optical Networking Fiber IRUs increase bandwidth capabilities quickly, more flexibly, and at lower cost Seven Projects: BRAN Boulder to Denver Boulder to Fort Collins Wyoming to Denver CDOT fiber Denver to Colorado Springs and Pueblo Fort Collins to Laramie Denver Metro Ring Golden to Denver for CSM and DU

9 Fiber = Control Research can t be held hostage to what industry thinks the market wants. Infrastructure investments of the past are getting in the way of real innovation. The situation is reminiscent of the telco infrastructure situation before ARPANET. Bob Kahn CRA-Snowbird 02
