N-Wave Engineering Update N-Wave Stakeholders Conference - Boulder 22 May 2012 Mark Mutz, NOAA mark.mutz@noaa.gov
N-Wave Design Review • Designed primarily for high-volume data flows • Initially 10G mesh, 100G upgradeable • Internet2/NLR DWDM waves for core circuits • Core network fully meshed for high availability • Waves on various R&E RONs for access to core • Ethernet only with MPLS – L2/3VPNs • Instrumentation/test servers at node and site
Update Summary May 2011 May 2012 Seattle Core site complete Asheville CLASS Layer 3 VRF Silver Spring and Sand Point aggregation routers Miami AOML Hawaii OC3 Matured change management • Core build out complete • Backend Systems complete • 4 RDHPCS sites connected via L3VPN • CLASS Suitland connected to Boulder via L2VPN • NSSL - Norman and Boulder Campus connected
Hawaii - PRC • OC3 acquired from UH. • Juniper MX series routers for aggregation. • Hawaiian Tel. EIPDS service for connectivity across the island.
MPLS VRF Structure • Layer 3 VRF- Virtual Routing and Forwarding • Separate routing tables keeps participant traffic segregated • Management – Default VRF • Private VRFs • RDHPCS • CLASS and CLASS-DB • NOAA (OAR) Wide VRF
Layer 2 Connections • WOC/NCEP– Data replication from Gaithersburg to Boulder • SWPC Boulder access to NCEP Supercomputer • Fairmont Internet access • SOC/Fairmont to Silver Spring NOC
MPLS Expansion • Extending MPLS out to the aggregation routers • Simpler to configure and maintain • More resilient • Single Layer 3 peering at Aggregation sites • Layer 2 redundancy • Cisco to Juniper MPLS interoperability
Uptime • Network operational on Jan 1st 2011 • Core Network uptime - 100% • For a Participant dual homed to core • 100% Uptime • Fully meshed design
N-Wave Expansion • Aggregation routers • Miami • Norman • Asheville • Suitland • NOS and NMFS • NWS
