  2. NOTE • We are in the process of updating our international overview materials. • If you find out of date items or have suggested changes, please let us know! • For up to date information, please contact Ana Preston apreston@internet2.edu • Thank you for your patience!

  3. Internet2: Partnerships • Partnerships are key to Internet2 • International partners are of strategic importance to Internet2 • Ensure global interoperability • of the next generation of Internet technologies and applications • Enable global collaboration • in research and education providing/promoting the development of an advanced networking environment internationally

  4. International Partnerships • Build effective partnerships in other countries • With organizations of similar goals/objectives and similar constituencies • Mechanism: Memoranda of Understanding • Provide/promote interconnectivity between communities • Collaborate on technology development and deployment • Facilitate collaboration between members on applications • Engagement to: • Establish leading, high-performance network infrastructures in support of science, teaching and learning • Ensure global coordination and end-to-end performance in support of our communities

  8. International connectivity • Internet2 backbone networks are primarily in the United States • Primarily, our partners’ networks pay to get to the US • NSF provides some funding for 3 international links and a couple of interconnection points • TransPAC (Asia/Pacific Rim) • EuroLink (Europe) • NAUKAnet (Russia) • STAR TAP/Star Light (Chicago) • AMPATH • Other international exchange points/transit facilitated by Internet2 members

  9. International Peering • How? • Through an interconnection point such as PacWave, Starlight, MANLAN, AMPATH • Through an international link such as TransPAC or via another network, e.g., CALREN-2, GEANT • Other options are reviewed case by case

  10. STAR TAP/Star Light •Chicago •NSF-funded project •ATM-based STAR TAP •STAR LIGHT: GigE/10GE switch-based Pacific Wave •Seattle •Gigabit Ethernet-based •Pacific Northwest Gigapop MAN LAN •New York City •Internet2 project •Sited at NYSERNET colo space •GigE/10GE-switch based LALALAN •Los Angeles •Under development by CENIC AmPATH •Miami •Includes Global Crossing links to South America U.S.-based International interconnection points
