Manticore Proof of concept for IP network and router as a service 2008 With the aim of creating a proof-of-concept for (Layer 3) IP networks and routers as a servivce The first Manticore project was started in 2006 between NRENs, developers and network vendors such as Cisco and Juniper 2008

Manticore II Improved capabilities Pilot on NRENs 2009 Partition physical routers into logical routers Configure external (BGP) and internal (OSPF, RIP) routing protocols 2009

What about the network users? 2009

Objectives Integrated Layer 1-3 services Refine and expand the Mantychore services provided by means of integrating, with IaaS tools, solutions for optical and Ethernet/MPLS networks. Integrated Layer 1-3 services Enable HEAnet and NORDUnet to provide IP Network Services to their users enhancing their service portfolio. Improve research communities activities and optimize the efficiency of use of e-Infrastructures. Deploy an operational IP Network as a Service Innovate in the business model, establishing a marketplace where all Infrastructure Providers can publish their available resources. Customers can automatically negotiate the SLAs getting the best resource combination for their needs. Marketplace for resource trading Use Mantychore services to contribute to the research performed in the GreenStar Network (GSN) project to enable carbon-neutral infrastructures. Carbon-neutral e-Infrastructures Evaluate the likehood of Mantychore services (open source based) in a commercial telco environment and elaborate a business plan focused on this service for telco operators.

Virtual CPE – Scenario 1 Automatic provisioning of new clients. Provider’s domain (HEAnet) Automatic provisioning of new clients. Via virtual routers. Reduce need for new hardware deployments. Providers enforce parts of the CPE configuration. i.e. BGP policies. Delegation of partial configuration rights to clients. Internal IGP VRRP Firewall … CPE Client A domain Client B domain Physical Router Logical Router SA1 Software Refinement

Virtual CPE – Scenario 2 Automatic provisioning of new clients. Provider’s domain (Health Data Net.) MPLS LSP’s Provider’s domain (UNI·C) Automatic provisioning of new clients. Via virtual routers.

Distributed and Private Cloud – Scenario 1 This scenario will use Grid-Ireland nodes to test complex cloud-like sharing of resources and flexible networks. A grid site is formed by: Infrastructure nodes Worker nodes Currently, only infrastructure nodes have connectivity. Worker nodes are on an isolated LAN. SA1 Software Refinement

Distributed and Private Cloud – Scenario 1 We foresee a two stage implementation: At a first stage: Use of a L3 VPN Policies at TCD. Low impact Will allow the. grid site to meet at a NREN-managed logical router Worker nodes, will be able to be aggregated in a flexible cloud. SA1 Software Refinement

Distributed and Private Cloud – Scenario 1 We foresee a two stage implementation: At a second stage: Institutional IT departments will be involved in the setup. Implement L2 solutions where possible. Avoid tunneling overhead. SA1 Software Refinement

Distributed and Private Cloud – Scenario 2 Three actors involved: Campus Computing resources consumer. Routers partially managed by Mantychore. Main requirement: Move infrastructure to the cloud. Network transparency. Avoid application reconfiguration. Network IaaS Provider – NREN SUnet. L2 Services Redundant Full mesh LSPs. VM IaaS Provider – NREN or comercial operator. Offer virtual private clouds. Configurable user addressing space. VM migration SA1 Software Refinement

Virtual Private Cloud Compare with Amazon VPC, which launched a dynamic network component recently. Amazon VPC allows various configurations of public and private subnets and with/without internet access. Mantychore aims to provide similar support, with the advantage that it can operate at the lower, physical layers of the network. Mantychore will also support IPv6.

Mantychore vs new Amazon VPC Amazon VPC launched dynamic networks on March‘11 Amazon VPC has four templates: A) VPC with public subnet. B) VPC with public and private subnet. C) VPC with Internet and VPN access. D) VPC with VPN only access. Mantychore will implement: D -> C -> A. Base technologies Support for IPv6. VPNs both at L3 and L2 (MPLS, pure-VLAN). Open Source toolset available. Inspect the source code. Adapt, customize. Deploy on your own infrastructure. Integrate with existing deployed systems. SA1 Software Refinement
