  • National Research & Education Network of the Netherlands

– Connecting around 200 institutions at 350+ locations – Serving approximately 1 million end users – 11.000 kilometers of dark fiber, DWDM/CWDM – Network

  • Routing: IPv4 and IPv6
  • Guaranteed bandwidth: Lightpaths
  • NetherLight

– ANA, GNA, GÉANT, GLIF

  • Cross Border Fibers
  • SURFwireless

– Collaboration

AutoGOLE (GLIF Open Lightpath Exchange)

3

  • AutoGOLE fabric delivers dynamic network services between Open Exchanges and networks
  • Based on Network Service Interface (NSI) Connection Service
  • Hub and spoke architecture
  • 29 Network Service Agents (6 aggregators, 23 uPA) advertising 30 networks worldwide
  • Using DDS service for NSA discovery and document propagation between aggegrators
  • Advanced capabilities
  • Experimenting with new path finding and signaling algorithms
  • Additional network modeling for optimizations
  • Reducing old-school multi-domain human provisioning lead times
  • Introduction of multi-domain possibilities for monitoring, troubleshooting and provisioning
  • AutoGOLE Dashboard (former prototype)
  • MEICAN Pilot

  • Looking for 1 provisioning tool for NOCs and users, a front-end for the AutoGOLE
  • Comparison of multi-domain provisioning systems after GLIF AutoGOLE meeting in May 2016
  • MEICAN
  • Interface offers support for creation, modification and deletion of multi-domain services
  • Interface is intuitive, easy access to world-wide (true multi-domain) provisioning of service
  • Offers features such as user roles, authorization and workflows
  • Monitoring of services becomes possible
  • Debugging for NOCs possible
  • Supporting the Network Service Interface

Conclusion: MEICAN is the most mature tool for multi-domain network service provisioning

Why MEICAN for the AutoGOLE?

Timeline 2016-2017 MEICAN pilot

Phase 1 Form a coalition of AutoGOLE partners that want to join. These are: PacificWave, SINET, StarLight, RNP, NetherLight/SURFnet. AutoGOLE is open to

  • thers joining this effort.

Phase 2 Create and test an implementation with MEICAN. Engage NOC engineers and put them into the Playground first, then production system, get their feedback. Phase 3 Try-outs of MEICAN by production NOCs. Phase 4 Facilitate collaborations and research projects. Show the difference between regular IP connectivity and on- demand circuits.

MEICAN Experiences and Results so far

  • RNP provides active participation and support to the AutoGOLE project
  • Although compatibility issues were found during the testing phase (still ongoing)
  • RNP fixed a lot of these items already, hence
  • Offering a useable front-end to the AutoGOLE
  • First international circuits have been created already
  • MEICAN is ready for next phase, involving NOC engineers
