  1. TransPAC2 Network Update Jim Williams TransPAC2 Principal Investigator williams@indiana.edu

  2. TransPAC2 Project Goals • Production networking to facilitate research between US and Asia • Cooperation with Internet2 HOPI project • US-Asian cooperation on “lightpath” technologies will be crucial to future development • Initial assets will allow for MPLS and GMPLS-like experimentation, with future equipment possibly supporting layer 2 and layer 1 services • Security coordination • Measurement coordination

  3. TransPAC2 Network Overview OC-192 circuit between Tokyo and Los Angeles Japanese side lands on APAN Tokyo XP router (AS7660) US side lands on US TransPAC router (AS22388) Peerings with major North American networks: Abilene, ESNET, Canarie, DREN, NISN, NLR, etc. Inter-Asian connections: Tokyo and Hong Kong (2.5G) - link owner NICT-Japan operational today Tokyo to Singapore (TBD) – link owner NII-Japan operational Q1 2006 Backup agreements JGN2, SINET and TransPAC2 circuits all provide mutual backup to each other

  4. TransPAC2 Circuit Map

  5. TransPAC2 Network Interconnects

  6. TransPAC2 Infrastructure Futures Much of what TransPAC2 will become is dependent on the next year of infrastructure development in the US, Asia and Europe NLR places a heavy emphasis on point to point lambda networking and Layer2 VLANs HOPI will be experimenting over the next two years with hybrid approaches to point to point “lightpath” connections and how to signal those connections Asian networks continue to build out optical networks in individual countries GEANT2 initiative in Europe will link many countries at the optical layer TEIN2 will provide new connectivity both within Asia and between Asia and Europe. TransPAC2 is designed to adapt and participate in these changes, while maintaining production connections between the US and Asia

  7. TransPAC2 Project Futures Network security has become extremely important. Network measurement has moved beyond MRTG Network Operations must be more closely connected.

  8. TransPAC2 Information TransPAC2 Webpage: http://www.transpac2.net contains TransPAC2 workplans for engineering, measurement and security
