  1. StarLight Implementation June 5, 2001 Andrew Schmidt (schmidt@evl.uic.edu) & Linda Winkler (winkler@mcs.anl.gov)

  2. StarLight ColocationNorthwestern - 710 North Lake Shore Drive • DataComm facility for University DMS100 • Space for 40 equipment racks plus carriers • Shared space w/ NOC and Engineering Staff • Power: • Two, 120 volt, 20 AMP AC circuits • Battery and Diesel backup • Fiber: • Dual Entrance • Multiple carriers: Qwest, L3, ATT, SBC, MFN, …

  3. Northwestern Close to Carriers Close to NAP 710 N. LSD

  4. StarLight Colocation Northwestern - 710 North Lake Shore Drive • Equipment • Cisco LS1010 • Cisco 6509 • Juniper M10 • Dual OC12s to NAP • PVC NAP participants • Layer 3 policy • IP Addresses • Route Server • IPv4 available • IPv6

  5. Chicago NAP • Peer to StarLight • Feeder hub for STARTAP and MREN • Approximately 130 connections • Peaks to 6Gbps load • Problems • port speed capped at OC12c • No capability to gather statistics at switch • Location for STARTAP services • Migration to 710 N. LSD planned

  6. NAP Connection to legacy STARTAP International Connections NAP 225 W Randolph 710 N Lake Shore Dr 2*OC3c 2*OC12c LS1010 LS1010 M5 M10 L3 interconnect ANL SURFNET 6509 ABILENE EVL ESNET NCSA NU L2 interconnect

  7. Value Added Services: STARTAPStarLight • IPV4 routing • IPV6 routing • Native Multicast Exchange • General purpose UNIX machine • NLANR Caching Project • NLANR AMP • Router Proxy • DiffServ/QoS Experiments

  8. Test and measurement capabilities • STARTAP • NLANR/MOAT OC3MON • mrtg L3 only • StarLight • NLANR/MOAT • Will implement mrtg • Netflow capable (? Interest in data)
