3. Equipment Purchase and Locations 100 Gbps border router – connect to OARnet-Internet2 peered network –Science DMZ Location at OSU Border: KRC; Vendor: Looking at Juniper, Cisco, Arista and Brocade offerings for Year 2 and beyond OpenFlow switches – configure VLANs to remote sites (e.g., MU, GENI) –Locations: 1 at Science DMZ border, and 3 at inner-campus “aggregation” points that reach all researchers; Vendors: NEC, Dell, Brocade perfSONAR measurement points – collect end-to-end performance metrics –Locations: 1 at Science DMZ border, and at 3 or 4 inner-campus locations to reach research labs in primary use cases (e.g., Physics, Med Center, CS Dept.) Data transfer nodes – wide-area RDMA-based, GridFTP technologies –Locations: Same plan as perfSONAR measurement points Policy-directory server – enforces researchers’ project-specific policies –Location: Coupled with OpenFlow controller and located at Science DMZ border Bro Cluster – investigate the tradeoffs to be balanced between researcher flow performance and campus security practices –Location: Coupled with all equipment at Science DMZ border; Deploy in Year 2 3
