  13. Relation with Cisco • In May 2005 a frame work agreement was signed between Paltel and Cisco. • As a result of this agreement Paltel signed with Cisco through their representative in Palestine Safad a contract for upgrading the IP network to enable more BB services and to be the basis for NGN services in the future.

  14. IP network • The new network will be based on GSR 12000 routers with high capacity. • Paltel and Cisco are working on a plan for migration to NGN. • The current IP network is as per the below:

  15. BB – Palestine Data Network (“PDN”) of 24

  16. BB – Palestine Data Network Phase Three: IP VPN Rollout of 19

  17. Transmission network • The Transmission network is based on SDH technology using FO underground which was hearted a lot by the IF at last three years and needs rehabilitations at many areas, and also MW links between the main cities. • The current capacity on the backbone is STM16 and will be upgraded soon to DWDM.

  18. Transmission network • The configuration between the new IP network and the transmission network will be based on GBE. • All the sister companies are getting the required capacities from Paltel backbone. • As plan we are targeting to get another POP in Israel for redundancy purposes.

  19. Transmission network • As part of the new plans which is in line with NGN, we started to connect the main institutes and universities with FO. • We will put a plan to have new Gaza where will be connected FO to the end user. • FO to the curb already started in the main cities, Gaza, Ramallah and Nablus.

  21. IP services 1- AAA infrastructure: • We currently have the Open-Source FreeRADIUS as the AAA solution running at Paltel, the infrastructure consists of two redundant servers located in the main datacenter in Nablus to support both SFI customers and ADSL customers. • We are planning to replace this system with Cisco Access Registrar/Sun I-Planet as LDAP Server, the solution will help Paltel build more stable and scalable infrastructure for both West Bank and Gaza, the solution will be clustered to achieve the highest level of redundancy.
