The GEANT project
• One of the key projects
• 123+Gbps and 27 countries
• World-class service• Optical Internet• Budapest becomes an
important focal point, regional hub
• The Hungarian telecommunication becomes stronger (MATÁV and PanTel)
• GTRAN

National effortsHBONE - the Hungarian research computer network
• In a nutshell:– covers 400 institutions– services for 400000 users– all universities/high-schools, academic research
institutions, public libraries and museums, + ministries
– STM-16 connection to GEANT– ~30Gbps internally
1118 April 2002
Hungarnet Optical Internet
• Aim: world-class service in Hungary
• Long preparation• Successful public
procurement• Connectivity providers:
MATÁV and Vivendi• Capacity upgrade 3.5Gbps 30Gbps• Hungarian national
framework programme

Hungarnet Optical Internet
• Public procurment of equipment•Cisco 12416, Catalyst 6509
MPLS extension•In service: mid December 2001•Transition period: one month
Leading-edge network services in Hungary

Upgrading the access in Hungarnet
• Emphasize backbone vs. access (35. vs. 400)• Framework contract with major provider for
yearly upgrade of 50-100%• New access routers for 200+ sites• Aims in the next three years
– 75% of sites with 512kbps – 1.5Mbps capacity
– Average access: 750kbps
– Introduction of ADSL
More capacity for more sites

Supercomputing in Hungarnet
• Background:– There are scientific and research problems that can only be solved using
supercomputers and by grids– Hungarian researcher need this service– The Hungarian GRID uses the high-speed national network
• Three supercomputer installation in 2001• Participation in several international GRID projects • Targets:
– grid of 50 clusters + some supercomputer– computing capacity: min. 1000Gflops – at least 100 research projects
• Problems: quick erosion of computing capacity• Long term national policy is required; Hungarnet plays active role
1518 April 2002
IP telephony in Hungarnet
• Four key issues:– Avoid long distance
national, international charges
– Almost free telephony between Hungarnet institutions
– Cost savings, benefit from economy of scale
– New integration phone, PC, Internet
• Open organizational and management issues– Long term preparation,
demonstrations

Looking at from a perspective
• International recognition– “for example it has been possible to upgrade the Hungarian
network this year directly from 2Mbit/s to 155Mbit/s for the same price !” (Background material for the EC minister of science’s in March 2000. The only positive example.)
• National recognition– Telcos are in favour of fair competition and results that shows
their competence
• Why the status of the Hungarian research network is important ?– 5th/6thFramework programme – Information Society Technologies
Goal is: a competitive, extended, united Europe
1818 April 2002
Summary
• Significant development of Hungarnet in the last 2-3 years• Conformity with the eEurope requirements• The infrastructure of the Hungarian research network is
advanced in European terms• Application projects (Közelkat, MOKKA, Directory,
Hungarian Digital Library, supercomputing, stb.) • The foundation for the next three years is established• Important role within GEANT for the CEE region• End of the era of rationing capacity
Joint European effort: world-class research, development, and education
