2. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings What is CIREN? CIREN: Consortium of International Research and Education Networks Most of the Research & Education Networks have joined this proposal, for expanding the global collaborations. Principal Investigator Michael McRobbie (Indiana Univ.) Co-PI Doug Van Houweling (Internet2) Dai Davies (DANTE) Shigeki Goto (APAN) Nelson Simoes da Silva (CLARA)

3. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings Requirements & Commitment 1. Support of R&E Community: Major Networks have joined this proposal. 2. Network Topology: US – Tokyo - HK Busan SG – (IN) 3. Network R&D: NOC Collaborations, HOPI(Hybrid Optical and Packet Infrastructure), Measurement Infrastructure, E2E Performance, Security Center, etc. 4. Support of NSF’s CyberInfrastructure: Global deployment of HENP, VLBI, NCMIR, TeraGrid, etc. 5. Extension to other region: Connection to India will be studied.

4. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings New TransPAC links NICT will get: - 10Gbps single or low-priority SONET ring circuit ( SONET STS12c X 16 ) from Carrier-LA to StarLight. - a single International circuit with the same SONET framing from Tokyo XP to Carrier-LA. IU will surely secure the grant extension of 9 months for HPIIS, IU will get - 10Gbps high-priority SONET ring circuit ( SONET STS192c ) from Carrier-LA to Abilene-LA. - the other single International circuit of the same SONET framing from Tokyo XP to Carrier-LA. IU will synchronize the purchase of the circuits with NICT: - the same carrier should be selected - the new contract will start at 2004.8.1. - the terminating date of IU is 2005.4.30.

6. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings Links between JP and South East Asia Two links are envisaged: 1. JP-SG link: 155Mbps in 2005 is proposed to NSF by CIREN 2. JP- TH link: 2Mbps -> 45Mbps in 2004 is being studied by NII.

7. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings APAN Network Topology

8. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings HOPI GLIF agrees Hybrid approach is promising!

9. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings Observatory Backbone Network Measurement will be jointly executed by Researchers as well as NOC: –Throughput, Latency, Routing, Netflow, Usage, Router, Syslog Data collected by NOC will be provided to the authorized network researchers or students, for encouraging the network research activities: Advanced NOC service

10. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings End-to-end Performance E2E performance can be executed by the joint efforts of network researchers and e- Science/Application researchers, ex. eVLBI. This project is critical for the development of APAN. Tokyo-LA link Usage is shown below:

11. July 6, 2004APAN Cairns Meetings Security Security researchers will work closely with NOC for stabilizing the networks. NOC will provide Netflow data to the authorized researchers for encouraging the security researches over the real networks.
