Digital Divide in Russia Alexey Soldatov, RRC “Kurchatov Institute”
Network Growth After December 2001, Moscow December 2001: Kurchatov Institute/RIPN becomes primary network operator and opens new 45 Mbps network to S&E users across Russia – including many new institutions in Moscow
Users of Advanced Network Services Note: Drop in European IPs in summer, 2003 due to network improvements in Europe permitting direct exchange of European-Russia traffic in Europe.
High Energy Physics Applications Note: During some months, 40% of all traffic from Russia across the high speed network is from Russian High Energy Physics community.
Russian Institute for Public Network Russian Institute for Public Networks (RIPN) has been founded by Russian Ministry of Science, Russian Ministry of Education and Russian Research Centre "Kurchatov Institute". The aims declared were the following: • to develop computer communications in the interests of Research & Education (R&E); • to coordinate IP networking in Russia; • to promote research studies in the field of computer communications; • to support R&E organizations in getting access to the Internet information resources via public networks.
RBNet general information • About 50 points of presence around Russia • Backbone services for R&E networks: regional, corporate, specialized … • Two-level architecture • Protocols supported: • IP • Frame relay • ATM • IP MPLS • VPN services • Support of regional Internet Exchanges
Moscow RBNet PoP • Distributed architecture (3 PoPs) • Transport system: Gigabit Ethernet and ATM (155/622Mbps) • Fiber optic network (about 200 km) • 24*7 support by RIPN • NOC location: Kurchatov Institute
