17/05/2010 Aena IP and AMHS Interoperability Trials

IP and AMHS TRIALS- PLANIFICATION STRATEGY


INITIAL SITUATION

At the end of 2008, it was initiated an interoperability planning test between

Aena and new ANSPs that have migrated to AMHS or that are planning to

migrate to AMHS in a sort time frame.

First action was the identification of the IP infrastructure to be used.


DESIGN PHASE

1.LAYER 1: Identify the physical infrastructure that will be used.

2.LAYER 3: Agree the network configuration

3.LAYER 7: Agree the AMHS configuration

4.Agree the network test that will be performed.

5.Agree the AMHS test that will be performed.

TEST PHASE

5.Perform some network test to assure the network connectivity.

6.Perform the AMHS trials

MIGRATION PHASE

7.Define coordinated procedures to carry out the migration in a coherent and compatible manner.

GENERAL STEPS


Contact among different ANSP have been initialized in two different forums. In the EUR-AFI Regions this project was materialized in a Task- Force, under the umbrella of the AEFMP group ( AEFMP IP-TF).

In the case of the Aena (Spain)-FAA(Argentina) initiative, it has born thanks to the good relations and understanding between both organizations.

The list of ANSP that have contacts in order to perform trials in short or medium term are:

DESIGN PHASE


Two options depending on the time frame.

i. Short Term Solution. Connecting IP NATIONAL DATA NETWORS using a TDMs COMMON INFRASTRUCTURE. PARTIALLY DONE.

ii. Long Term Solution. Using the PENs infrastructure. PARTIALLY DONE.

2.Agree the network configuration -> ON GOING under the umbrella of the AEFMP IP Task Force (*)

i. IP NATIONAL DATA NETWORS

Low level protocolsAENA (SPAIN)- DSNA (FRANCE)- ONDA (MOROCCO)-ENNA (ALGERIA)- NAV (PORTUGAL)

1.The low level protocol used in the communications stack by the members of the AEFMP group will be TCP/IP.

2. IPv4 protocol will be used by the application because it is the commercialized version by the COTs providers nevertheless the international IP connectivity will be made using IPv6.

3. ONDA and ENNA have formally requested to Eurocontrol a range of IPv6 address.

4.ONDA has been assigned an operational IPv6 address and a Pre-operational IPv6 address (for tests).

5. The connectivity solution will be partially supported by PENs, in long term for those countries where the PENs infrastructure will be available. In short and in medium term bilateral agreements will be done to performing AMHS trials.

6.Be aware about the amount of traffic exchanged and use this data for estimating the network resources required by the AMHS.

AMHS AddressingAENA (SPAIN)- DSNA (FRANCE)- ONDA (MOROCCO)-ENNA (ALGERIA)- NAV (PORTUGAL)

1. Is recommended to adopt the CAAS addressing scheme by the AEFMP members.

2. Is agreed to use the AMC facility in support of the AMHS implementation, according with the EANPG conclusion.

3. Use the information of how to announce minor and mayor changes in the AMHS addressing scheme that is named “Outline of proposed procedures for coordination between ICAO AMHS MD Register and AMC” included in the doc. “11WP27 - Inter-regional co-ordination activities”.

AMHS RoutingAENA (SPAIN)- DSNA (FRANCE)- ONDA (MOROCCO)-ENNA (ALGERIA) - NAV (PORTUGAL)

1.The short term proposal is to implement, as minimum, the current CIDIN routing/topology.

2.According with the current PENs implementation, a fully meshed topology will be possible in the Eur Region in medium term. As consequence, the topology among some members of the AEFMP will be “theoretically” fully meshed, in medium term.

3.In long term a different topology can be implemented among the AEFMP’s members. In order to choose the best one, it is needed to be aware about the real exchanged traffic.

TestsAENA (SPAIN)- DSNA (FRANCE)- ONDA (MOROCCO)-ENNA (ALGERIA) - NAV (PORTUGAL)

1. A network infrastructure has to be agreed to perform the AMHS trials.

2. It is strongly recommended to perform interoperability trials as are collected in the Eur AMHS Manual, appendix E (bilateral and trilateral, if possible).

3. Additionally some conformance test could be performed, the test cases could be expanded based on bilateral agreements.
