  1. NYSERNet 2000 Network:An Overview Presented by the Engineering Co-Chairs: Jim Grisham Bruce Johnson NYSERNet Cornell University jgrisham@nysernet.org bbj@tc.cornell.edu (315) 453-2912 x366 (607) 254-8626 www.nysernet.org

  2. NYSERNet - a Quick History • Founded 1985 by 15 NYS R&E institutions • Historically a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization focused on: • developing Internet services for NYS research and education community • bringing the Internet to new users • bulk buying services from multiple vendors • operating in a competitive market

  3. NYSERNet - a Quick History • 1987 first 56k bps regional TCP/IP network in the country • 1989 first T1 regional internetwork in the country • Spun off PSI (now a national ISP) • 1994 first T3 regional internetwork in the country • 1996 created AppliedTheory Communications (commercial ISP)

  4. NYSERNet’s New Mission NYSERNet, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to advancing the public good by adopting leading-edge networking technologies and applications that enable innovative collaboration between New York State’s research and education institutions and by promoting the dissemination of information to New York State’s K-12, library and museum communities in support of their requirements for ubiquitous and affordable networking services

  5. The NYSERNet 2000 Program • A series of projects focused on developing an advanced New York State network infrastructure in support of Research and Education • Part of the national Internet 2 initiative linking the country’s leading R&E institutions with each other and the national supercomputer centers

  6. NYSERNet 2000 Program Goals • Identify research and education initiatives that will be advantaged by new network capabilities • Facilitate inter-institutional collaboration that will speed the development of advanced network applications • Develop a new regional network infrastructure that will support member R&E initiatives

  7. NYSERNet 2000 Program Goals • Provide advanced network capabilities to NYSERNet member institutions at the lowest possible cost • Transfer advanced network capabilities into the commercial marketplace as rapidly as possible • Develop a broad base of technical and financial support for this initiative

  8. The NYSERNet 2000 Program • 21 NYSERNet 2000 Member Institutions • committing technical and management resources • committing $10,000 each in initial project support • committed to enhancing local campus infrastructures to extend advanced network services to researchers
