PANEL DISCUSSION - Zero Touch Connectivity Henrik Wessing, DTU Frans Panken, SURFnet Per Nihlen, SUNET Architecture Workshop Tony Breach, NORDUnet 10- 13 November 2014 moderator Copenhagen connect • communicate • collaborate
It’s just there ... and it always works … how difficult can it be? connect • communicate • collaborate 2 / 16
Zero Touch Connectivity connect • communicate • collaborate • In JRA1 we expect to see a future where the user don’t have to do anything once the device is configured, in order to connect to the “ I nternet ” .. “ NET ” or ? SSID Password • They don’t care who delivers the ZERO TOUCH service – they just expects it’s - Payment there Duration QoS • But how do we get to that “reality” Capacity Endpoints • How do we handle the entire mobility situation currently and emerging 3 / 16

Who we are in ”our” Networks group at DTU connect • communicate • collaborate • Dedicated to networks! • From applications to the lowest physical layer. • Networks group: 23 staff including PhD students – Education and research – • Department: Appr. 190 staff – • Special focus currently: Datacenter networks – Reliable networks – ´Transport networks and Alien Waves – Network applications – 5 / 16
Communication networks are many things – but usually based on same principles connect • communicate • collaborate 6 / 16
Zero Touch connect • communicate • collaborate • Seamless connectivity from whatever device to whatever ressource • Transparent QoS configuration. • QoE excellent – or we should know on forehand -> QoS discussion Case: TeleMedical Applications: Need to rely on guaranteed bandwidth and quality – (Radio) A – Access – Aggregation – Core – Data Center etc. – 7 / 16

PANEL DISCUSSION - Zero Touch Connectivity connect • communicate • collaborate Will the term ZERO TOUCH connectivity to the network be the way of the future? 9 / 16
PANEL DISCUSSION - Zero Touch Connectivity connect • communicate • collaborate What about the underlying network from device to application…. - will that need to adapt and control flows in a multi-domain environment? 10 / 16
PANEL DISCUSSION - Zero Touch Connectivity connect • communicate • collaborate How can we secure a high level of quality of experience for the user no matter if the user is having a: • mobile device • fixed connected device • big instrument • data centre • or something completely new 11 / 16
PANEL DISCUSSION - Zero Touch Connectivity connect • communicate • collaborate Can we maintain the current network boarders and domains? Or will the boarders become diffused from the user perspective….. forcing GÉANT, NREN and commercial service providers into cooperation in a federated manner? 12 / 16
PANEL DISCUSSION - Zero Touch Connectivity connect • communicate • collaborate It looks like NREN’s need the cooperation with Service Providers…. BUT do they need the NREN’s in order to provide the Zero Touch Connectivity? Can NREN push anything relevant to the Service providers? 13 / 16
PANEL DISCUSSION - Zero Touch Connectivity connect • communicate • collaborate What do you see as the main barrier(s) to provide zero touch connectivity in the near future? 14 / 16
PANEL DISCUSSION - Zero Touch Connectivity connect • communicate • collaborate City Hall of Kraków (one of the biggest city in Poland) - Next year the city of Krakow plans to start broadcasting Eduroam networks in urban wireless network – do you see any pitfalls for NRENs or is this one way to reach to a Zero Touch connectivity for “everyone” using the Eduroam technology concept? 15 / 16
