8. US state/regional optical networks

9. Optical Network Technologies workshops • http://www.nren.nasa.gov/workshops/ • Past ONT workshops, most recent not yet there

10. CCIRN topics of interest in this area? • Sharing experience managing, operating ‘optical’ networks • Variety of levels of management • Interconnecting ‘optical’ networks • Trans-oceanic links SDH/SONET • Actual interoperability of equipment • Nortel-Alcatel, Ciena-Alcatel tests ongoing, others? • Collect results? • ‘optical’ in the sense of ‘lightpaths’ or circuits • Coordination of manual, static set-up across domains • Interoperability of respective control planes for dynamic set up across domains • GLIF topics, CCIRN topics?
