New SURA IT Strategy – Highest Priorities
• Foundation-Building– Connectivity
• Regional (USA Waves, Crossroads)• National (National Lambda Rail, Internet2)• International Opportunities
– High Performance Computing– “Grids”
• Data storage• Middleware
• Program Development– SCOOP– Bio-Informatics/ Medical Research
3
Program PlanRegional and National Connectivity
• Goals– Secure new resources/tools to facilitate infrastructure improvements
• New partnerships• Secure federal and other sources of funding
– Build the Regional Infrastructure: SURA Crossroads• Evolving new role for MAX as key resource• AT&T Collaboration: Fiber First; Waves next (?)• Support and leverage SURA region NLR nodes• Facilitate other regional partnership and efforts
– Establish National and International Connectivity and Visibility• Leverage AT&T Collaboration Agreement
– USAWaves and National Buyers Consortium– Help complete/enhance NLR backbone to advantage of SURA region
– Impact digital divide issues• Drive down cost while improving physical connectivity
4
Program PlanInternational Connectivity
• Program Elements– Identify and engage with strategic international networking forums and projects
• National and Regional Networking groups– Internet2, NLR, CENIC, etc.– CANARIE, GEANT/DANTE, SURFNet, UKERNA, CERN, NORDUNet, etc.– APAN, TRANSPAC, AMPATH, ALICE/CLARA, etc.
• International Networking Initiatives– TransLight, EuroLink, SurfLight, UKLight, NorthernLight. Etc.– GLIF - Global Lambda Integrated Facility– HOPI (UCAID)
– Support and partner with international research collaborations• HENP, GOOS/IOS, BioGrid, eVLBI, etc.
– Partnership with IEEAF• New international fiber and lambda donations• Link and leverage with SURA/USAWaves and NLR

International Connectivity for Collaboration
• Lots of point-to-point OC-x’s• Now increasing waves: 2.5G ’s, 10G ’s• NSF IRNC solicitation is generating more• GLIF
• Multiple POPs, connection points, “owners”• Numerous exchange agreements, AUPs, barriers to
transparent communications
• Increasing focus on neutral, open exchanges, distributed peering infrastructure

Removing Geographic Barriers
• Concept: an extensible, geographically dispersed peering fabric -- with open, neutral exchange/peering points
• Result: you connect at any one location on the fabric and have the option to peer with any other participant, regardless of where they are connected
15
SURA and FIU/AMPATH: Now WHREN (Western Hemisphere Research and Education Network)
• SURA and FIU committed to interconnect AMPATH and NYC/MANLAN– Initially with 1Ge that SURA has under its
agreement with NLR– Then with 10G
• Important to include connectivity to MAX and its federal connections in DC area; leverage SURA investment in MAX
• Leverage SURA investment in SoX, role of SoX/SLR as southeast exchange point
16
Important East Coast International Peerings
• FIU/AMPATH, Miami - Latin America• NYC/MANLAN - multiple• MAX - Feds + GEANT
19
SURA Atlantic Wave Proposal
• ITSG (IT Steering Group) recommended and SURA Executive Committee approved:
– That SURA acquire a 10Gbps wavelength on the NLR backbone from Jacksonville to NYC and a switch to be placed in NYC, in support of the Atlantic Wave initiative (background and details follow).
– The estimated one-time expenditure of $481,472 be funded from the I.T. Fund.
20
Atlantic Wave Matching Commitments
• Significant matching funds are being committed by the various partners in Atlantic Wave (based on initial estimate):
• a. AMPATH (FIU): recurring costs of 10G wave from JAX to NYC - $ 35,823 per yr
• b. FLR and FIU/AMPATH: 10G wave from JAX to Miami – cost not yet known
• c. AMPATH: switch in Miami - estimated $150K• d. FLR: switch in Jacksonville - estimated $150K• e. ATL/SoX switch: SoX/SLR - estimated $150K• f. MAX: switch in DC/MAX - estimated $150K
21
AtlanticWave
• AtlanticWave is an International Peering Fabric along the East Coast– US, Canada, Europe, South America Plus….– Distributed IP peering points:
• NYC, WDC, ATL, MIA, SPB
• Described as an integral component of the WHREN-LILA proposal to extend LILA on the Atlantic side to MANLAN in NYC
• Establishes 10Gb wave from Miami to MAX/NGIX-E in DC and MANLAN/NYC over FLR and NLR with interconnects in Jacksonville and Atlanta
• Interconnects the Atlantic with international peering exchanges in TransLight/Chicago and the Pacific through CA*net4 and Pacific Wave (P-Wave)
• SURA, FIU-AMPATH-CHEPREO, the IEEAF, MAX, SoX/SLR, MANLAN, and in partnership with the Academic Network of Sao Paulo (ANSP) are combining efforts to establish AtlanticWave
• Complements the PacificWave distributed peering facility on the west coast
23
AtlanticWave Topology
• A-Wave will provide multi-layer/multi-protocol services between participating networks
– Layer 3 peering services over ethernet
– GLIF “light path” services– Others TBD
• A-Wave will provide a Layer 3 distributed exchange capability
– Ethernet based– Best effort packet exchange– Linear topology –
unprotected (NLR based)– 1 GE, 10GE LAN, 10GE
WAN client access– Jumbo frame support

Deployment Plans & Timeline
• Phase 1: Deploy backbone OC192c Sept 05– Between MIA-ATL, ATL-WDC, WDC-NYC
– 10Gbs WAN PHY ethernet over NLR wave initially.
– Migration of existing exchange switches/networks• Regional backhaul
• Reconfiguration of existing exchange services and networks
• Phase 2: Sonet switch deployment Dec 05– Map IP/Ethernet Peering Fabric across “appropriate” sized VCG (GFP-F &
VCAT)
– Engineer and deploy GLIF Common Services in conjunction with other GLIF domains
• Phase 3: Deploy dynamic light path services Mar 06
• Phase 4: Expansion Aug 06 ->– Integrate links between A-Wave, P-Wave, Northern Tier, etc
