  2. What is PennREN a high-speed, state-wide, research & education serving healthcare, K-20 and the public good • Capital Budget - $128,958,031 • Federal Stimulus Funds - $99,660,678 • Matching Funds - $29,297,353 • Outside Plant Infrastructure Constructed for PennREN • 48 Stands of NZD Fiber optic Cable • 1700± Route Miles • Outsourced Fiber Maintenance • 13 Optical Regeneration Service Nodes • 56 Service Distribution Access Nodes

  3. Project Route Total PennREN Fiber route is estimated at 1,613 miles. The route consists of the following; • 1,086miles of new aerial construction. • 486 miles of aerial overlash. • 14 miles of new underground construction. • 27 miles of leased underground conduit. Network Backbone Engineering is 95% complete overall. 3

  20. Services • Services available to a customer with an EPC Member B Member A KINBER Member Exchange R&E Transit VPLS – Pt-Pt, Multipoint Commodity Internet Member C Member A

  21. Services • Community-wide, distributed service for members to exchange traffic across a common network. Similar to an Internet Exchange • Member-to-Member peering, ad-hoc R&E activities • Best-effort traffic exchange within the community KINBER Member Exchange R&E Transit • Transit service to major R&E networks such as Internet 2, ESNet, NLR… • Provided by KINBER affiliates • Virtual private networks with committed bandwidth can be established using VPLS instances in the PennREN network • VPWS – Virtual Private Wire Service – Point to Point • VPLS – Virtual Private LAN Service - Multipoint VPLS – Virtual Private LAN Service(Point-to-PointMulti-Point) Commodity Internet • Access to commodity Internet service is available over the PennREN network

  23. Performance Measurement • PerfSONAR Measurement Archives allow exchange of data with other network operators • Regularly scheduled testing across the backbone • User-initiated testing for applications such as problem diagnosis • Multiple routing tables allow us to support both 1G and 10G testpoints on a single host

  24. Performance Measurement Deploying performance measurement servers at each service node 3 servers per site: • Active throughput measurement (1G and 10G) • Active latency measurement • local data collection / ad hoc performance measurement Specific performance measurement tools include: BWCTL OWAMP MaDDash 24

  25. Network Measurement • GlobalNOC tool-set updated to support all PennREN devices, including: • SNAPP – High-resolution SNMP-based network utilization data • LLAMA – DWDM layer performance measurement data • Central storage of other passive data like syslog, configuration, flow, etc. for regular and ad-hoc processing & analysis.

  26. PennREN Service Desk • GlobalNOC Specialized Support Technician • Footprints PennREN project created – integrated to TickMon, Operations Calendars, Trouble Tickets • Telephone number for PennREN customers integrated into shared GlobalNOC phone queue • Email established noc@pennren.net to receive customer inquiries and or communications from vendors….this is monitored 24x7x365

  27. PennREN Service Desk • Network and Member impact guidelines defined • Web form for customers/vendors to submit trouble tickets into Footprints • Change management process/form created • Internal documentation developed/published for staff training and reference

  28. PennREN Service Desk • Pro-active network monitoring • Support for scheduled maintenances and changes • Vendor coordination • Customer install process • Reporting • Security • Tools and Communications

  29. Weighing network needs

  30. A new network is more than a construction project • It’s a system: • Goals • Infrastructure • People • Services • Operations • Business • Make decisions and plans early (also, there will be more decisions than you think, so watch for bottlenecks) • The work on all of these areas starts right away

  31. Service Definition • Unrealistic to imagine services will be completely defined from the beginning of the design • But, enough understanding is needed to guide the design and build plan • Early “anchor” users help a lot!

  32. Communications • Communication needs: • to be high-bandwidth • Early is good • Changing staff can be disruptive, do it carefully. • Informal is good • Multi-channel is good • reliable technologies are good • Face to face is good

  33. Documentation • Documentation: • Have a place for documents • Keep the place for documents clean • Keep the purpose of each document clear/distinct

  34. Operations • Operations Preparedness: • Start early, there are a LOT of things to think about, especially: • Turn-up/acceptance process • Expectations for facilities • How and where to keep network data

  35. Build-outs make for lots of information • Need to be ready to put it somewhere where it’ll be usable later • Data entry is cheap • Entering/documenting is best when the information and its context are fresh

  36. The lowly management network • Sometimes doesn’t get enough attention • It can get crazy complicated or crazy expensive • NOTE: in an SDN world, this becomes even MORE important!
