25-28 May 99 SBRC99 Salvador, Bahia, Brazil Abilene: Objectives Provide high-quality, widely available Interconnect among participating gigaPoPs/universities IP as the bearer service Goals Reliability Functionality Latency Capacity
5
25-28 May 99 SBRC99 Salvador, Bahia, Brazil Abilene: Objectives cont Additional, separate networks to Test advanced network capabilities Final proposals being evaluated this month For network research - still TBD Support advanced functionality as it evolves Multicast, QoS, IPv6

25-28 May 99 SBRC99 Salvador, Bahia, Brazil Abilene and Other Networks Important for Abilene to interconnect with other high performance networks First I2 backbone: vBNS Federal Agency NGI networks (ESnet, NREN, DREN,...) Non-US Research & Education Networks CANARIE, NORDUnet, SURFnet, TransPac, etc Peering in hand or plans in process vBNS, ESnet, CANARIE, DREN, NREN, NORDUnet, SURFnet, etc Advanced functionality across I2 & our peers Native multicast QoS across multiple interconnected networks *RSN

25-28 May 99 SBRC99 Salvador, Bahia, Brazil Broader Internet2, NGI, and International Advanced Nets Initial NGIX sites Possible CA*net3 peering sites StarTap StarTap Plus
10
25-28 May 99 SBRC99 Salvador, Bahia, Brazil Notes on I2, NGI, and International Interconnections NGIXes are the foundation for peering I2 backbones & with NGI nets Abilene will connect with OC12 StarTap is the foundation of international interconnections - universal solution New York is first example of StarTap Plus Minimize latency Provide redundancy Abilene doesn’t provide transit
11
25-28 May 99 SBRC99 Salvador, Bahia, Brazil Example: New York City SURFnet has OC-3 circuits and routers at the Teleglobe POP at 60 Hudson Street NORDUnet the same And each connects from New York to the StarTap with DS3 Details on the next slides

25-28 May 99 SBRC99 Salvador, Bahia, Brazil Couple of Notes on Costs Cost recovery on UCAID’s part Set each year for following year Participant institution Connector - based on BW (can be connector and not participant) nb There is also a small Qwest access fee Long-distance part of access line is considered part of the ‘backbone’ Thus, number/location of core nodes does not affect costs borne by connecting sites
