Few answers (I) • Which Networking equipment will be used ? • Currently undecided, likely Candidates • Foundry FastIRON SuperX, MG8 • Force10 E300/E600 • How is local network layout organised? • 1G BGP connection to CA*net4 and rest of research network, 10G WAN PHY lightpath to CERN via local PoP BCNET, CA*net4, NY MANLAN, Amsterdam • How is the routing organised between the OPN and the general purpose internet? • Present lightpath terminates at TRIUMF there is no access to public Internet, Probably BGP added later when final network hardware is purchased and in place • What AS number and IP prefixes will they use and are the IP prefixes dedicated to the connectivity to the T0? • TRIUMF does not have an AS number likely use one from regional provider • IP prefix for TRIUMF T1 is 206.12.1.0/24 • It will be dedicated to connectivity to T0 2
Few answers (II) • What backup connectivity is foreseen? • Still undecided • What is the monitoring technology used locally? • SNMP, Cricket/RRD, Nagios, Intermapper, Ganglia, Smokeping • How is the operational support organised? • Likely a joint support between the parties involved (TRIUMF/HEPNET/Canarie) • What is the security model to be used with OPN? • Undecided – possibly ACL based • What is the policy for external monitoring of local network devices, e.g. the border router for the OPN. How will it be implemented ? – Did not explore this issue yet 3
