Actual Narrowband Problems Direct Client-PABX link: 100% reservated but...<<100% use PSTN 64Kps available limit, Mps need: overload Hugh cost/performance ratio Protocol conversions, large overhead Merely no differentiated customer groups, no differentiated services no differentiated billing POTS: Plain Old Telephone Service
1997: Evolution of Wide Area Networks Frame Relay/ATM Leased Line Public ISP Time evolution Virtual network
Key Trends Historical future • Traffic patterns: predictable chaotic • WAN boundaries:separate integrated • mission critical: separate integrated • data volume: defined exponential • requirement: data information
Key Necessities • increased bandwith • extended reach • enhanced ‘smart’ applications • controlled behavior
1. Development of WAN access is more customer satisfaction orientated

Future mixed (?) Users SAP, BAAN Database Surfing $ @ New apps impact mission-critical apps
Bandwith policy by creating application profiles Based on Packet loss round trip delay troughput packet jitter one-way delay reachability networdk service availability duration of outage lenght of outages Source: Framework for metrics for SLA
Applicability of VPN’s Applications Video conf. Crit. data Telephony Data Customers ISP 1 ISP n Corp 1 Corp n Service Level Standard Bronze Silver Gold Every cube will be a VPN
Applicability of VPN: policy enabled net Is this user authorized to run this application? What level of performance is needed to do the job? What priority should this application/user receive?
1. Switching <> Routing: advantages and disadvantages. Is the world willing to adapt : Benefits > development cost and investments ? Is the world able to adapt: Backbone support ? 2. IP and ATM:
IP over ATM IP packet Packet switching => no quality control Cell switching: Priority indication ATM
Actual Discussion Quality-driven Bandwith-driven Connection oriented switching Connectionless routing Semi-Connection oriented routing
Actual Challenges 1. Integration of legacy networks, creation of Intelligent Global Infonet Switched circuit networks ATM/BB/SCL/IP Network Gateway Gateway IP Networks
