  2. The WHREN-LILA Project • Proposal submitted by Florida International University (FIU) and the Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California (CENIC) - Award# 0441095 • Links Interconnecting Latin America (LILA) aims to Improve connectivity in the Americas through the establishment of new inter-regional links • Cost-sharing from the Academic Network of Sao Paulo, award #2003/13708-0 • Western-Hemisphere Research and Education Networks (WHREN) is a coordinating body of organizations from across North and South America that aims to leverage the network resources of participating members to foster collaborative research and advance education throughout the Western Hemisphere 2

  3. Project Goals • Improve network connectivity between North and South America through the deployment, operation and evolution of LILA links • Evolve the LILA links to their fullest capacities as resources and economies permit • Foster collaborative research and advance education throughout the Western Hemisphere and other world regions • Support the evolving needs of US science and engineering researchers • Foster new inter-regional and inter-disciplinary communities of researchers and learners 3

  4. LILA Project Coordination • Participating Organizations • Project Steering Committee formed, with one member from each participating organization, for project implementation and operational decisions • Engineering Committee, comprised of network engineers from each participation organization, to make network engineering and operational recommendations to the Steering Committee • CLARA (Latin America) • CUDI (Mexico) • RNP (Brazil) • FIU (Awardee) • CENIC (Awardee) • ANSP (Sao Paulo) 4

  5. Regional Development • Cooperation of Latin American research networks (CLARA) • @LIS Alliance of the Internet Society funded program, providing 10 Million Euros for interconnecting R&D communities of Latin America and Europe • Creates a regional backbone in Latin America • Direct connectivity to Europe from Sao Paulo, Brazil • Intraregional connectivity between connected countries in Latin America • 3 DS3s from AMPATH to support CLARA initiative Ecuador (CEDIA) El Salvador (RAICES) Guatemala (RAGIE) Mexico (CUDI) Nicaragua (RENIE) Panama (REDCYT) Paraguay (ARANDU) Peru (RAAP) Uruguay (RAU) Venezuela (REACCIUN) Argentina (RETINA) Brazil (RNP) Chile (REUNA) Costa Rica (CRNET) (NRENs in formation indicated in RED) 5

  6. Expected CLARA network topology Network Characteristics: • 155 Mbps backbone ring • 622 Mbps connection to Europe • local traffic remains within the region • 10 to 45 Mbps spur links • 4Mbps satellite link to Cuba • Network to be operated by CLARA (through CUDI and RNP) From Michael Stanton 6

  7. Current US - Latin America Topology • RedCLARA network starts operating in August 2004 • Brazil/RNP and Chile/REUNA today transit CLARA, then GEANT to reach US R&E networks • NSF CHEPREO project and collaboration with Sao Paulo R&E community establishes STM-4 link between US and Brazil • ITN services and transit to FedNets through Abilene • Argentina, Panama and Venezuela maintaining direct connections to US through AMPATH • Mexico has direct connection to US through UTEP 7

  8. Increases Miami - Sao Paulo link from 622Mb to 1.2Gb in year 1 Link increases to 2.5Gb over 5 years Provides Gig-E interfaces to ANSP, RedCLARA and RNP in Sao Paulo distributed exchange point Peering through AMPATH to Internet2’s Abilene other US and non-US R&E networks Establishes a dark fiber segment between San Diego and Tijuana for (2) 1Gbp links, year 1 Provides dedicated Gig-E interfaces to CLARA and CUDI Growth across border possible up to maximum of 6 Gig-Es Connections are to CENIC’s CalREN/HPR routed network Peering through CalREN to Internet2 and other US and non-US R&E networks WHREN-LILA Links San Diego - Tijuana Link Miami - Sao Paulo Link

  9. US - Latin America Year 1 Topology • LILA links reestablish direct connectivity to South America from east and west coasts • Reduces delay reaching sites in Chile and Brazil from the US and Asia-Pacific • Introduces an infrastructure to develop a distributed international exchange points and peering fabrics • Leverages network resources to provide route diversity and high-availability production services 9

  10. AtlanticWave • AtlanticWave is an International Peering Fabric • US, Canada, Europe, South America • Distributed IP peering points and add/drops in: • NYC, WDC, ATL, MIA, SPB • SURA, FIU-AMPATH-CHEPREO, FRL, the IEEAF, MAX, SoX/SLR, MANLAN, and in partnership with ANSP, CLARA and RNP in Sao Paulo are combining efforts to establish AtlanticWave • Described as an integral component of the WHREN-LILA proposal to create an open distributed exchange and transport service along the Atlantic rim • Waves on National (NLR) and Florida LambdaRail (FLR) • Complements the PacificWave distributed peering facility on the Pacific rim 10

  11. AtlanticWave Topology • A-Wave provides multi-layer/multi-protocol services between participating networks • Layer 3 peering services over ethernet • GLIF “light path” services • Others TBD • A-Wave will to provide a Layer 3 distributed exchange capability • Ethernet based • Best effort packet exchange • Linear topology – unprotected (NLR based) • 1 GE, 10GE LAN, 10GE WAN client access • Jumbo frame support 11

  12. WHREN-LILA Kickoff Meeting • WHREN-LILA kickoff meeting took place April 30th, in Veracruz, Mexico • This was the first face-to-face meeting with representatives from the U.S. and Latin America • The kickoff meeting coincided with the CUDI Spring 2005 member meeting and the CLARA Technical Meeting Back row: Fernando Muro (CUDI), Florencio Utreras (CLARA), Carlos Casasus (CUDI), Eriko Porto (RNP), Dave Reese (CENIC), Michael Stanton (RNP), Chip Cox (FIU) Front row: Julio Ibarra (FIU), Jim Dolgonas (CENIC), Luis Lopez (ANSP), Guillermo Cecileo (RETINA), John Silvester (CENIC), Hans Ludwig (CUDI)

  13. Year 1 Milestones May-June 05 July 05 Aug. 05 Sept.05 Oct.-Nov. 05 Dec. 05 • Implement LILA links • Implement interregional peering through CalREN and AMPATH • Implement security best practices • Establish Measurement mechanisms • Deploy AtlanticWave OC192c backbone • Establish AtlanticWave distributed exchange 13

  14. Thank You! • WHREN-LILA, AMPATH infrastructure, CHEPREO, science application support, education, outreach and community building efforts are made possible by funding and support from: • National Science Foundation (NSF) awards STI-0231844, MPS-0312038, OISE-0418366 and SCI-0441095 • Florida International University • Latin American Research and Education community • The many national and international collaborators who support our efforts 14
