Translight/PacificWave (TL/PW) Cooperative Agreement [#0441119] under NSF IRNC Program PI John Silvester (USC); Co-PI Ron Johnson (UW) Other Key Partners CENIC, Jim Dolgonas CENIC, Jim Dolgonas PNWG, Jacqueline Brown PNWG, Jacqueline Brown University of Hawaii, David Lassner University of Hawaii, David Lassner AARnet, George McLaughlin AARnet, George McLaughlin Approx $1M per year for 5 years Awarded March 1, 2005

TL/PW Primary Objectives Facilitate international R&E connections on US Pacific Coast Assist in the termination (equipment, backhaul) of AARnet SXTransport links to Hawaii, Seattle and Los Angeles Assist in build-out of Hawaii connectivity to Telescopes Further develop PacificWave exchange capabilities Assist in operation of IEEAF link Tokyo-Seattle Assist in operation and support of other International R&E networks participating in PW Develop and operate advanced capabilities to support optical interconnect and exchange needs of R&E networks

What is Pacific Wave? Pacific Wave is a state-of-the-art international peering facility designed to serve advanced research and education. Primary focus is interconnectivity among US R&E networks and International R&E networks from the Pacific Rim One of the objectives was the desire for all participants to be able to peer with each other which led to the “distributed exchange” design
5
Context of Pacific Wave The US States on the Pacific Coast [Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Hawaii] have collaborated in networking for several years. (e.g. US Pacific Consortium is an affiliate of APAN) Seattle, Los Angeles, and Sunnyvale are “natural” places for exchange points Many international links enter the US through Washington and California (and to a certain extent Hawaii although they tend to remain local there) Led to the development of Pacific Wave – a collaboration between CENIC and PNWG to build out exchange capabilities on West Coast.
6
Who Operates Pacific Wave? A joint project of CENIC and Pacific Northwest Gigapop In collaboration with University of Southern California and University of Washington
7
Pacific Wave Layer 2 Exchange Extensible peering exchange to allow layer 3 networks to peer easily over a layer 2 fabric Nodes (currently) in Seattle, Sunnyvale, and Los Angeles. Connected by a 10GbE wave provisioned over National LambdaRail (2,241 kilometers) AUP free Supports IPv4 and IPv6; multicast enabled Provides 24x7 NOC support. Priced consistently from node to node Allows participants to self-select their peering Allows participants to connect to one-location and access participants at all Pacific Wave nodes Supports advance applications Welcomes any research or development network that can meet the minimum network configuration requirements (connect with a router; support BGP; support jumbo-frames)

Changing Requirements for Exchanges The Exchange points need to provide a wider array of services: Layer 3 Interconnect (routed) Layer 3 Interconnect (routed) Layer 3 Interconnect (over layer 2 switch) Layer 3 Interconnect (over layer 2 switch) Layer 2 Interconnect (Ethernet switching) Layer 2 Interconnect (Ethernet switching) Layer 1 Interconnect (wave switching) Layer 1 Interconnect (wave switching) Layer 0 Interconnect (fiber interconnect) Layer 0 Interconnect (fiber interconnect) PacificWave is moving in this direction to allow us to continue to participate in the world of Global R&E networking
21
Pacific Wave Lightpath Interconnect Primary focus has been on Layer 3 interconnect There is a lot of interest in Layer 2 (“lightpaths”) and Layer 1 (“waves” and “lambdas”) interconnect. [GLIF, etc] SXTransport(S) will be configured as 8x1GE PW is deploying additional OC192 from LA to SEA configured as 8x1GE to allow interconnect for AARnet and other nets as demand grows. Also plans in place to extend PW connectivity to Starlight (Chicago) to further enhance layer 3 and lightpath interconnect capability
