Presentation Transcript

  1. High-Speed Access in GigaPort Presentation for TERENA Networking Conference 2000 Peter Valkenburg SURFnet

  2. GigaPort 1999 - 2002 Mission • Development of advanced broadband infrastructure and applications: • GigaPort Network: operational data traffic of higher education and research (executed by SURFnet) • GigaPort Applications: testing and developing advanced applications by industry (executed by the Telematics Institute) • Experience with new network- and access-technologies • Keep up with leading initiatives in US (Internet2) and Canada (CA*net)

  3. GigaPort Management 2 MEuro GigaPort Applications 11 MEuro GigaPort Network 51 MEuro GigaPort Funding Government: 65 MEuro Plus additional investments by industry

  4. GigaPort Network Components Access Organisations Wireless LAN Users Access Amsterdam Access Amsterdam Internet Exchange Internet Exchange Wired: ADSL, cable, FTTH National ExternalConnectivity Research Europe Europe (TEN-xx) Infrastructure Users Intercontinental Access Intercontinental Wireless WAN: GPRS, UMTS Users

  5. GigaPort Access Work Items • Pilots • wired: ADSL, cable modems, Fiber-to-the-Home, Gbit Ethernet • wireless: GPRS, UMTS • Generic Services • AAA • security (VPNs) • directories • Technology assessment • wired/wireless technologies • generic services

  6. Procedures and conditions • Pilots • partner search via Public Procuremen; investments by industry • “GigaPort Speed” is 2Mbps and up • lifespan 1-2 years, upto a few thousand end-users / pilot • Generic Services • working with partners and consultants • standardised/-isable solutions across infrastructures • Technology assessment • small projects • reports • prepares large scale pilots

  7. Results Tenders Access Pilots 1999 • Access GPRS wireless- Ericsson and Libertel with Tech.Univ. Eindhoven • Access cable- not awarded • Access xDSL broadband- Casene and Univ. Twente - Cistron and Tech.Univ. Delft, Vrije Univ. and Univ. of Amsterdam

  8. Generic Packet Radio Service (GPRS) • Partners • Equipment: Ericsson • Operator: Libertel (Vodafone) • User group: Technical University of Eindhoven (100 users) • Technology • GPRS is packet-switching over GSM network • speeds upto 115kbps • Applications • focus on full Internet connectivity (laptops) • always-on • AAA (SIM card!)

  9. Cable modem technology • 3 responses to CfP • .. but no compliant proposal • Technology • cable modem technology moving from proprietary to standardised • proprietary cable modems have scaling issues • standards: DOCSIS 1.1/1.2 and EuroDOCSIS vs. DVB/DAVIC • Future • technology assessment • small scale projects in collaboration with operators/vendors

  10. Broadband over telephone wiring: ADSL Telephone Exchange (MDF) To broadband backbone network Video filter filter Existing 2 wire telephone line Telephone exchange 2-8 Mbit/s 256 - 640 kbit/s • “Randstad” pilot: 500+ users, 3 locations, 1-2 interconnects • Twente pilot: 250+ users, 1 location, 1 interconnect (university)

  11. Coming up: Fiber to the home / dormitory fiber Complex (>100) fiber+UTP fiber fiber University Students housing UTP • 1 Gbps (Gigabit Ethernet) access • 100 Mbps switched for end-user Students housing Wireless LAN

  12. Fiber to the dormitory public procurement • Technology Assessment documents solutions and costs • 1 or 2 pilots, upto 5000 users • depends on scale / technical merit • Information meeting informs potential partners: • student housing organisations • higher education • industry (operators, vendors, systems integrators) • Tender • Informed by TA and responses to information meeting • focus on generic services

  13. Generic Services: work items • Authentication, Authorisation, Accounting (AAA) • X.509 PKI’s and smart cards • .. and more X.509 PKI’s • IETF AAA & Policy working groups; IRTF AAARCH group • Security • VPNs using IPSec • Directories • LDAP based • focus on integration of PKI’s • cross-NRN person searching (GIDS - Global Indexed Directory Systems)

  14. Generic Services: trends • Traffic separation • multiple ISPs on access infrastructure • Layer 2 VLANs popular • Layer 3 tends to get complex (source based routing etc.) • VPNs • IPSec products still developing • integration of PKI and VPNs • proprietary products do pop up in new access technologies • High-level AAA services • X.509 PKI’s and LDAP dominant • increasing focus on policy • roll-out of standard PKIX card technologies

  15. Statement & more information • Extending the campus backbone to include broadband home access is a vital task for higher education • More: www.gigaport.nl
