  1. Australian Networks status report John Barlow Advanced Communication Services Coordinator GrangeNet

  2. AARNet • Currently AARNet2 is a 155M ATM backbone with 34M and 155M tails • Tunneled IPv6; QoS; IPv4 multicast; VoIP; H.323 MCU; full netflow logging; single POP • About to build AARNet3, a mixed 622M / 2.5G PoS backbone with GbE tails • Native IPv6; IPv4; multicast; VoIP; H.323 MCU; SIP; redundant POP; jumbo/large MTU.

  3. Australian Research and Education Network

  4. GrangeNet • Government funded network (3 years, Aus$14,000,000) • Multiple 2.5G PoS backbone with GbE tails • Native IPv6; IPv4; IPv4 multicast; MTU 9000; soon QoS; soon IPv6 multicast. • Mostly university but also any research group/company • Access grids a prime reason for connecting (previous Australian links have limited capacity and 4 to 8 Mbps congests them).

  5. Brisbane Tail site Cisco 7609 OSR Cisco GSR12410 Cisco ONS15801 Sydney Canberra Melbourne GrangeNet Network AARNet SCCN link 4x2.5Gbps DWDM 2x2.5Gbps DWDM 1 GbE link Dual 155Mbps STM-1

  6. CeNTIE Government funded network (3 years, Aus$14,000,000) • Wide area layer 2 networking • Eight GbE over one 10Gb lambda • Experiments with haptic workbench and latency / jitter sensitive devices.

  7. National Coverage CeNTIE GrangeNet Interconnection July 03 GrangeNet live 4Q 02 10G IP1 online 2Q03 Brisbane SCCN via AARNET Perth live July 02 Canberra Perth Sydney Adelaide ?? possible December 03 Melbourne CeNTIE nx1G Sydney live March 03 GrangeNet Nx2.5G AARNet 2x155M

  8. CeNTIE Positioning • Breakout of thought ruts: aim to make available today technologies and business practices that may be 3-5 years away • Applications have not caught up with advances in networking • User heightened focuses NOT technology focused: allow the user to concentrate on what they are trying to do. • Industrial and Research Focus – four user communities with advanced needs which are poorly met at present, and point to the future.

  9. CeNTIE Technology Summary • Extensive dark fibre in Sydney and Perth metropolitan areas. Partitioning by glass, wavelength, VLAN and later MPLS. • End users have Gigabit Ethernet (10GE capable) with Ethernet switches as core. VLANS and CWDM are used in MANs, evolving to MPLS. • Long haul is 10Gbit/s DWDM wavelength using solitons from Melbourne to Perth • Interconnect with GrangeNet using MPLS tunnels, gives coverage on east coast. • network research in QoS, edge services, advanced layer 2 services and optical switching.

  10. MNet Government funded network (3 years, Aus$5,000,000) • Wireless network over the city of Adelaide • 3G phone testbed • Mobile phone (SMS) services http://www.mnetcorporation.com/

  11. AREN • Government funding for a research network in Australia • Aus$42,000,000 over 2 years Currently in discussion!

  12. Australian Research and Education Network

  13. Australian Research and Education Network

  14. AARNET’s International Network

  15. Services • Want to: • peer VoIP network with others • experiment with ENUM • start using SIP • Get universities running IPv6 natively • Making progress with access grids • Good success with • VoIP (H.323) • video over IP • native IPv4 multicast on most universities
