GENI Workshop on Layer2/SDN Campus DeploymentJuly 7, 2011Larry LandweberGENI Project OfficeJohn P. Morgridge Professor, EmeritusUniversity of Wisconsin - Madison
The Post-Internet Era • Why? • TCP/IP is broken at gigabit speeds • IP is not the protocol of choice for • Data centers / clouds • Wireless and mobile networks and applications • Gigabit applications and data-intensive science • Scaling is a problem – e.g., routing • Quality-of-service generally not available • Security remains unsolved • A New Approach • Built on Layer 2 • Software-defined (SDN), programmable, sliceable • New Protocols - OpenFlow, WiMAX • Already used in R&E backbones and on 14 campuses
ASSERTIONS We are at the same stage with respect to exploration of this new technology as we were in 1984 for the Internet technology. The NSFNET in 1985 provided a testbed for developing the Internet to where it could become a commercial system. Campus IT organizations were leaders in this effort.
GOAL • National scale, programmable, sliceable SDN spanning campuses, regional and national backbones • Support wide range of research • Network and other computer science • Data intensive science • Gigabit application development and use • Efficiently support campus IT operations/services • Build on GENI experience, infrastructure and technology • Support U.S. Ignite • Prototype for the future non-Internet (name TBD)?
Campuses – The Missing Piece • OpenFlow / WiMAXdeployment on production campus networks • Build on experience of 14 “GENI-enabled” campuses • Extend beyond CS/Engineering • Partnership between CIO organizations and researchers is critical
Today’s Workshop • 22 campuses represented • NSF (CISE, OCI), Internet2, GENI, EDUCAUSE • Agenda • GENI update • OpenFlow, WiMAXtechnologies • Campus case studies • Discussion • Next steps - planning for collaborative efforts • NSF CISE perspective
Next Steps • Campus planning – architecture / financial • Assistance from exemplar campuses • Collaboration between CIO organization and CS • Output needed by GPO to prepare solicitation • GENI Development and Prototyping Solicitation 4 • Additional funding in 2012 • Goal: ~30 campuses GENI-enabled by end of 2012
