2 Technical Pilot
3 Operational Pilot• Production networks are used• Focus on operational and management considerations,
e.g. procedures
4 Service Pilot• Full service is tested • Real use cases are served• Focus on and adjustment to real users requirements
• Technical feasibility tested in NRENs’ test beds• Focus on interoperability and transport at stitching points
5 ToolsAutoBAHN - a GÉANT provided dynamic provisioning toolthat integrates with an NREN's own systems
AutoBAHN features• Automated provisioning of dynamic L2 and L1 circuits
in multi-domain environments• Support for various provisioning technologies: native
Ethernet, SDH, Ethernet over MPLS• Advance reservations• Configurable policies giving the domains the control
over their resources• Interoperability with other BoD systems through DICE
IDC Protocol• User-friendly Client portal for managing the reservations• API access for end users' custom applications
cNIS - a topology information tool that feeds AutoBAHNwith Ethernet and SDH network topology objects. It featuresautomatic network topology discovery.
1 OverviewGoal: provide point-to-point high-bandwidth connectivity for
data transportPhases: three phases over one year to cover different aspects of
the service: technical, operational, service
Capabilities:• Supported networking equipment: Juniper MX480, Juniper
EX, Alcatel MCC 1678 platform, Brocade/Foundry NetIronXMR, DLink 3450
• Technologies: SDH, Ethernet, MPLS• Capacity: up to 10Gbps
Interoperability:• IDCP developed with Internet2 and ESnet• Network Service Interface (NSI) developed in the Open Grid
