  1. CA*net 4 Optical Update Bill St. Arnaud CANARIE Inc – www.canarie.ca Bill.st.arnaud@canarie.ca

  2. CA*net 4 Update • 2 x 10 Gbps lambdas coast to coast • 2 x 10 Gbps lambdas at Seattle, STAR LIGHT and MAN LAN • 3rd lambda planned for later this year • Most institutions connected with metro dark fiber • Long haul dark fiber with DWDM • 3700 km in Ontario • 2500 km in Quebec • 500 km in British Columbia • Support for e2e lightpaths to most institutions

  3. CA*net 4 is NOT an optical switched network • CA*net 4 is made up of many parallel application empowered or customer empowered specific networks eg: • Computer back planes (Westgrid) • High energy physics network • It extends the Internet 2 architecture of GigaPOPs connecting a small number of R&E institutions to a much finer scale with many parallel “application empowered” Internet 2 like networks connecting individual researchers and/or applications • With added feature that the application or user can dynamically manage their own IP network topology • Application empowered networks peer with each other at GigaPOPs and at optical switches which provides for greater reliability • The CA*net 4 wavelengths and switches are partitioned such that application empowered networks can control their own partition and incorporate alarms, topology and discovery into their IP network • User controlled traffic engineering • New ITU draft standard – Y.1312 - Layer 1 VPNs

  4. UCLP Software Status • GRID FTP across lightpaths demonstrated at November workshop • MonFox – www.monfox.com TL1 secure shell proxy deployed • Allows segregation of cross connect and lightpaths on ONS 15454 from production lightpaths • UCLP software to go into full production across CA*net 4 in February

  5. Lightpaths for Asia • CA*net 4 has provisioned dedicated lightpaths for Taiwan and Ireland • In discussions with Korea and other countries • These users will be able to do the following: • Create daughter lightpaths and offer them to other users (or countries) • Change the interconnection or peering of the lightpaths at will • E.g. Direct connect between Taiwan and Ireland • Use lightpaths as a restoral or protection path for their existing connection to STAR LIGHT

  6. Taiwan Ireland Taiwan Ireland Taiwan control switch directly using UCLP software User controlled topology Seattle NYC CA*net 4 GigaPOP STAR LIGHT

  7. Applications • Distributed back planes between HPC Grid centers • Westgrid 1 GbE moving to 10 GbE • SHARCnet 10 GbE • Distributed Single Mount file systems – Yotta, Yotta - SGI • Needs very consistent performance and throughput to truly act as a back plane • Frequent topology changes to meet needs of specific applications • Canada ATLAS – 980 Gbytes FCAL data once a month from CERN to Carleton U, UoAlberta, UoArizona, etc • Will significantly increase to Terabytes when production runs start • Would take over 80 days on IP R&E network

  8. Applications- 2 • CERN Low level trigger data to UoAlberta with GARDEN • Initially streaming data rates 1 Gbps moving to 10Gbps later in the year • Canadian virtual observatory • .5 Tbyte per day to UoToronto and UoHawaii • 250 Mbps continuous streaming from CCD devices • Neptune – Canada (and US?) under sea laboratory – multiple HDTV cameras and sensors on sea floor • Canada Light Source Synchrotron – remote streaming of data acquisition to UoAlberta • 2 to 5 Gbps continuously • Canadian remote Nano and micro electronics laboratories

  11. TransLight Goals • TransLight enables Grid researchers to: • Experiment with deterministic provisioning of dedicated circuits • Compare results with standard and experimental aggregated Internet traffic (e.g., TransPAC efforts) • TransLight tests include: • Moving large amounts of data • Supporting real-time collaboration and visualization • Empowering applications to request services • TransLight is the initial infrastructure part of GLIF, the Global Lambda Integrated Facility, an direct result of Euro-Link activities

  12. GLIF: Global Lambda Integrated Facility www.glif.is (Coming soon!) 3rd Annual Global Lambda Grid Workshop Reykjavik, Iceland August 27, 2003 GLIF is a collaborative initiative among worldwide NRNs, consortia, and institutions with lambdas

  13. GLIF Founding Members • TransLight • UKERNA/JANET and UKLight • University of Amsterdam • University College London • University of Illinois at Chicago • University of Maryland • University of Washington • USAwaves • WIDE Project • NSF (USA) • National LambdaRail • NetherLight • NORDUnet/ NorthernLight • Northwestern University • Pacific Northwest GigaPoP • Pacific Wave • StarLight • SURFnet • TeraGrid • TERENA • Argonne National Laboratory • Cal-(IT)2 • Caltech • CANAIRE • CERN • CESNET/ CzechLight • DataTAG • IEEAF • Indiana University • Internet2 • JISC (UK) • MIT

  14. International and National Commitment to Lambdas • Dutch government on November 28, 2003 funded SURFnet6 and its research for 5 years • United Kingdom is funding UKLight for 5 years • Canada’s CA*Net4 is funded for several years • IEEAF is providing 2 OC-192s for lambdas • US University consortium has partially funded The National Lambda Rail for 5 years • The US Department of Energy and Department of Defense are building domestic O-O-O networks • The US National Science Foundation has funded the TeraGrid DTF/ETF nx10Gb networks; is allowing UK and PRAGMA (Asia) to connect • Asia and Australia are bringing lambdas to the US

  15. GLIF Rationale • Re-configurable networking or user controlled traffic engineering of lightpaths (e.g., OptIPuter and Westgrid on CA*net 4) for optimum throughput and workflow between the facilities. • Layer 1 VPNs are required for security and traffic segregation.   AEONs as simple replacements for VPNs may be easier to manage and configure (e.g., the Taiwan and Ireland lightpaths provided across CA*net 4) • Government funding and allocation of network costs are important factors. • Eliminate cost of high-end routers. Switches are significantly cheaper than routers and so AEONs are routed at the edge (or even at the individual server) rather than in the core
