  1. CANARIE TECH. MEETING CANHEIT-08, Univ. of Calgary, June 18, 08

  2. Ontario’s next-generation research and education network, dedicated exclusively to the support of researchers, educators and learners in Ontario. Spans 5,800 kilometres, with connection points in 21 communities across Ontario. We connect every Ontario university and most colleges and teaching hospitals and several school boards to each other and to the global grid of research and education networks. Serving about 80 members throughout Ontario What is ORION?

  3. Advanced Research and Education (R&E) Full R&E routes to all members IPV4 Multicast Native IPv6 at TFS Specialized telecommunications services Optical light paths Ethernet circuits, wavelengths etc. Virtual LAN services Secondary campus connectivity VLANs for Internet access and specialty traffic IP and Transport Services

  4. Multi-homed via 1 or more GigE interfaces to various commercial and R&E networks Toronto: CANARIE TORIX, Google, Allstream Cogent, VSNL, Telus Ottawa CANARIE RISQ Federal GigaPoP (CRC) St. Catharine Nysernet Windsor Merit Peering / External IP Connectivity

  5. Traffic levels are almost doubling every year Interaction between ORION members is increasing as a percentage of total traffic Total backbone traffic approaches 6G. Intra-ORION: 1046 M. External R&E: 1012 M. Internet: 2,551 M. Public/Private Peering: 1270 M. Traffic Levels

  6. Traffic DistributionMarch - 08

  7. Completed deployment of two new routes London to St. Catharines Peterborough to North Bay Provisioned new DWDM technology on the new diverse routes. Completed deployment of Ottawa-Toronto-Windsor joint ROADM network with CANARIE Completed deployment of new Juniper Core routers. Working on plan to provision a 1G wireless backup link at SSMR with Merit. Operational Update

  8. Folded local fiber in Kingston, Oshawa, Oakville, Hamilton, Waterloo, Sarnia Lack of backup capacity for SSMR, Timmins, Sarnia and Welland Lack of support for QoS on the routers Lack of support for IPV6 on the PoP routers Poor VLAN management scalability High cost of upgrading or increasing capacity on existing hardware Current Issues

  9. Resolution of Spanning Tree issue Simplified Network Topology Less complex Network design More redundancy Support for 10G Support for new features and services ORION Next Gen. IP Network (Highlights)

  10. ORION Next Gen. Network (Highlights) • ORION Next Generation IP Network is the integration of existing IP Network with MPLS Core based on Juniper M120 routers

  11. 5 X Juniper M120 for MPLS Core. Toronto 151 Front St Toronto York University London University of Western Ontario (UWO) Peterborough Fleming College Northbay Nippissing University ORION MPLS Core

  12. Link Redundancy Additional fiber between Peterborough and Northbay for link level redundancy. Additional fiber between London and St. Catharine's for link level redundancy. Diversified fiber between Windsor/Toronto/Ottawa Hardware Redundancy Redundant RE’s (Routing Engines) Use of Redundant PIC’s for Ethernet Port-Channels Redundant Power Supplies Support for 10G uplinks ORION Next Gen. Network (Highlights)

  13. Network Integration

  14. Completely redesigned the routing architecture into core and distribution layers Support for MPLS VPN, QoS, and IPV6. Planning for replacing the old Cisco hardware Planning for replacing the old Nortel DWDM systems in 3 years with ROADM based 100G gear. Provide redundancy to leaf nodes (Oshawa, Sarnia etc). Acquire diverse fiber to address folded local fiber at various POPs. Future Plans
