  1. Workshop on Conducting Research on LEARNGENI-LEARN Integration using ORCA Deniz Gurkan, Charles Chambers, Tesfaye Kumbi, Maanasa Madiraju, and Karthik R. Naramuchi University of Houston Feb. 18, 2011

  2. LEARN Workshop GOAL • Attract more researchers utilizing LEARN • Conduct networking and infrastructure research while implementing a GENI infrastructure • Conduct research experiments on the infrastructure • Collaborate on proposals • Create a framework to meet the expectations of researchers and the LEARN network operators

  3. LEARN Workshop TLC2: Texas Learning and Computation Center • LennartJohnsson University of Houston • CIO, Dennis Fouty • Network Planning/ Development Team Special Thanks • Collaborators in GENI • Cluster D • LEARN Community • Akbar Kara • Network engineers • Technical Advisory Group (TAG) • GENI Project Office

  4. LEARN Workshop Agenda - morning INTRODUCTION and welcomeProfessor LennartJohnsson, Director of the Texas Learning and Computation Center, University of Houston LEARN-GENI integration using ORCA as a control framework Deniz Gurkan, Charles Chambers, Tesfaye Kumbi, Karthik Ram Narumanchi, Maanasa Madiraju, Department of Engineering Technology, University of Houston 9 – 9:30: Research support and connection capabilities of LEARNAkbar Kara, LEARN 9:30 – 10: Experimentation on GENI infrastructures - GENI Project Office Perspectives Mark Berman, GENI Project Office 10 – 10:30: ORCA control framework for dynamic VLAN setup and resource reservations AnirbanMandal and IliaBaldine, RENCI-BEN 10:30 – 11 COFFEE BREAK 11 – 11:30: FutureNets: Designing Architecture, Technology, and Facilities for Multi-Service, Deterministic, Differentiated-Attribute Networks Joe Mambretti, Northwestern University (ICAIR) 11:30 – 12: Demonstration of a research experiment run on a large-scale network infrastructure Michael Zink, University of Massachusetts, Amherst

  5. LEARN Workshop Agenda - afternoon 12 -1 pm LUNCH BREAK 1 – 2:30 pm: Researcher and related talks (20 min each) Network performance measurements and cross-layer communication research opportunities on LEARN Deniz Gurkan, Department of Engineering Technology, University of Houston Using GENI to Verify Automatically Synthesized Network Protocols Alex Sprintsonand Christopher Jasson Casey, TAMU Network issues relevant to university infrastructures Willis Marti, Texas A&M University WiMax in UNT ShengliFu and KameshNamuduri, University of North Texas Maestro: A System for Scalable OpenFlowControl ZhengCai, Rice University 2:30 – 3 pm: Open Discussion on Future Activities

  6. Outline GENI: Global Environment for Network Innovation • GENI funding • GENI Spiral-1 & Spiral-2 (2008-2012): Measurements, Measurements (with Infinera DTN), Integration with LEARN through ORCA • GENI Spiral-3 (TBA): GENI Rack Deployment on LEARN • Future Plans • GENI Rack Deployments • University of Houston-LEARN DYNES • Follow-up Workshop on GENI and Other Network Research on LEARN

  7. UH GENI (2008 – 2012) Spiral-2: • LEARN-Infinera DTN agreement: measurement handler software • Integration of LEARN as a RON into GENI substrate with VLAN offerings - ORCA UH Spiral-1 and Spiral-2 GENI Funding • Spiral-1: • Measurements available on network equipment (embedded or internal measurements) • External measurements • Physical layer emphasis

  8. Introduction to GENI ORCA ORCA (Open Resource Control Architecture) Control Framework • Control/configure network elements (switches, routers, optical boxes) through SSH connections • Resource Broker, Clearinghouse • Measurement and Computational Services as Resources • More on this coming up by IliaBaldine from RENCI… • ORCA handlers for ION interfaces will be available summer’11

  9. GENI-LEARN Integration Phases of Deployment • GEC9: An emulation network with Cisco 3400s • QinQ demonstration • Handler testing on emulation network • Early Jan’11: Determination of VLAN assignments and translation points • Feb’11: Designation of campus and RON connection points • By GEC10: Ongoing deployment sequence: UH, Rice, TAMU, and UT-Austin

  10. QinQ and Handler Testing Lab Emulation UH TAMU RICE UT-Austin

  11. VLAN Assignments Translation Points and Interfaces • NLR – LEARN: VLANs from NLR are mapped to reserved range of VLANs on LEARN • SETG (Southeast Gigapop) – LEARN: SETG resources take VLANs from LEARN as a distribution point to other institutions • Institutions – SETG: Each institution has a pair of VLAN id’s for data and management

  12. Topology – UH, Rice, and SETG/LEARN

  13. Topology – SETG/LEARN/NLR, TAMU, and UT

  14. GENI Spiral-3 GENI Racks Deployment on LEARN • Participated in GENI racks (network equipment and high-speed computation resources) proposal with ORCA team at: • TAMU • Rice • UH • Requested funds to pay for LEARN bandwidth • Awards to be announced by mid-2011

  15. Future Outlook LEARN and GENI • LEARN, UH and Rice have been funded by the Internet2 DYNES initiative (TAMU and others might be added) • ORCA-ION handlers – possible extension and added flexibility of connections • Performance measurements as resources on LEARN • Follow-up workshop with more involvement of the Texas-based high performance computing centers and potential researchers and experimenters
