RIE : Starting point

On May 25th, 2012, the Council of Ministers has decided to implement a “secured interdepartmental telecommunication network, unifying departmental networks and ensuring that any public service could go on even in case of severe Internet failure”. The network will replace overall existing departmental networks (17 000 sites).

3

RIE : goals

Renovation of public action :

Secured and unified network dedicated to public administrations National scope : metropolitan and overseas territories

Concrete answer to strategic government issues :

Simplified collaboration between public administrations Secured network : improve security against « internet » Controlled operational costs : sharing network between different entities

Improvement for end-users :

Single operator for public administrations : SCN RIE User-oriented evolving services : at the core of digital transformation

4

SCN RIE : a dedicated government agency

With national authority:

• SCN RIE = Service à Compétence Nationale - Réseau

Interministériel de l’Etat

• SCN RIE = national (metropolitan and overseas) authority
• Accountable to the Prime Minister
• National and international connectivity will be provided to all public

administrations

SCN RIE assignments:

• Design and roll-out of the network
• Management of the network including security and operations
• Implementation of shared services

RIE : specific requirements

5

• Backbone with 22 links
• 3000 km optical fibers
• 14 POPs
• 10 Gb/s
• Technology MPLS, IPV4, IPV6

RENATER

RENATER: a few words

Our users:

• ESR = 230 000 researchers and professors
• 2 300 000 students
• 700 institutions, 1300 sites connected

RENATER : a GIP (public, non for profit)

• 55 staff in 4 locations, 23M€/year
• A NOC and CERT for operational network

Network RENATER: some figures

• 11,900 km of fibre optics (RIE 3000 km)
• 120 links (RIE 22 links)
• 72 points of presence (RIE 14 PoPs).
• Network: 125wavelengths(10G)(RIE 10 G)
• 1346 ports in mainland France and French
• verseas departments and territories.

11

Synergy RIE/RENATER

• When comparing networks/footprint, the

synergy between the two networks seems

• bvious
• In addition, the optical equipment

deployed on RENATER are capable of generating additional wavelengths

13

SCN RIE (Prime Minister) viewpoint

• Significant delay saving
• RENATER expertise does not exist elsewhere in

French governmental organisation

• Substantial financial savings
• Half of the savings will be reallocated as an

additional budget for RENATER

• RENATER will propose a plan for future

investment for the Research & Education Community

14

Research and Higher Education Ministry

2 opposite viewpoints in principle :

• RENATER must stay focused on the ESR community and

has to keep on beeing responsive to its needs and requests

• We are pleased to see that 20 years of investment for

the R&E, have an extension for an operational service for French State. It is a success for the research community.

15

RIE chosen solution

• Provision of optical circuits (dedicated

wavelengths)

• All other services are separated

(switching, supervision, operation,…)

• Strengthen of the security of the two networks

(including increase of thr security in all the POPs)

• In terms of staff management: RENATER

separates the « RENATER » team and « RIE » team

16

• Based on the French NREN RENATER
• Fiber optic infrastructure
• Acknowledged expertise
• Dedicated wavelength for traffic

transportation

• Functional autonomy
• Security
• Additional links to be built
• Interconnection in the PoPs located in

local departmental premises datacenters
