Current COPC Network Diagram (As of Nov 2013)
OPC Network Changes • Sept 2013 – NAVO ATM to OTN • All three (3) of NAVO's existing COPC circuits (73WU, 73WT and 7UQ1) have transitioned off the Stennis Space Center DISN Legacy ATM and commercially leased AT&T service, onto the new Optical Digital Cross-Connect (ODXC). • FNMOC and NAVO are working to upgrade the FNMOC circuit (73WT) to 150Mbps to support the COAMPS-OPS exchange. • June 4, 2013 – ESPC (NESDIS) and NCEP • The equipment was moved to the correct security zone and prepared for the 10gig upgrade of the connection from ESPC to the NCEP POP. • Moved security zones. • Completed the upgrade from 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps. • June 11, 2013 – AFWA and DISA • Upgraded the AFWA circuit (78Y2) from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps. • In preparation to carry the IDPS data.
Notional NFG - NOAA to DOD Network Connection 1 2 3 1 – Determine how to test with the NFG while continuing to operate the COPC Network. 2 – Upgrade the NMIC networking to allow more future data bandwidth (10Gig - throttled back to 4Gig.) -AFWA has an unfunded request for the NMIC networking upgrade. 3 – Each DOD Center is working to upgrade their NIPR connection. -AFWA plans to be ready by Jan 2014. -FNMOC and NAVO plan to be ready by Apr 2014. 6
NFG Testing Summary COPC Action Item 2013-1.4 COPC Action Item 2013-1.4: Arrange a briefing from DISA summarizing the test results of data latency through the NFG. CCM will report the findings and recommendations to CSAB and COPC. An actual briefing was not given but CCM and CSAB did receive the NFG Testing Summary report that was conducted in the labs in late May 2013. In the test results, the NFG was able to process the full load of the test sets used, with a maximum latency across the test network with both WCF (Web Content Filtering) and NFG combined of only 2.26ms. CCM and CSAB agreed that under at least "lab conditions" the raw throughput seems to be more than adequate. CCM recommends COPC close this action. 7
NFG End-to-End Latency Testing COPC Action Item 2013-1.5 COPC Action Item 2013-1.5: Implement an end-to-end latency test exchange using representative proxy data from NOAA (NESDIS, TOC, and NCEP) through NFG to each DOD OPC. For a true end-to-end test COPC needs all the parts implemented and we are not there yet. Additional fiber line or process to test without impacting the operational circuits. NFG implemented. Path from between the NMIC and the NFG (that does not impact the ops net.) To be NIPRNet ready at the bases. A good representation of the actually data set with end point verification. CCM will work with the ODAA and CSAB to create the proxy data sets. CCM recommends COPC keep this action open. 8
COPC NetworkA single point of failure • CCM has continuing concern about the growing reliance on this single point of failure. • Initially not a technological networking challenge but more of a budgeting/funding challenge for a second DOD/NOAA exchange point. • Once the COPC Network is fully functioning through the NFG and still no funding can be found for a second connection: • CSAB, CCM, and ODAA should hold meetings to brainstorm/determine free to low cost mitigation procedures (if NSOF/NMIC were to suffered a long-term outage). • Increased NOMADS use through the Internet. • Possible backup sites passing data through the DOD NIPR Internet interface. • Any kind of direct readout adjustment. • …
