  1. Update on CEF Networks in Slovakia Pavol Horváth, Marian Ďurkovič, Tibor Weis CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  2. SANET2 Network • Fully based on dark fibre • Ethernet everywhere (LAN, MAN, WAN) • significant reduction of network complexity • much lower cost than routers with POS interfaces • easy and unified management • First part in production since Feb. 2002 CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  3. Progress since CEF2005 • Gigabit ethernet trunks running out of capacity • especially on cross-border links • But “big” DWDM solution unnecessary and too expensive for SANET’s needs • One 10-gigabit ethernet fully sufficient links are 802.1Q trunks - native support for L2 services • Keep the possibility to install second lambda CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  4. CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  5. International Connectivity • Cross-border fibre to AT, CZ • IRU-like contracts for 10 years • maintenance provided by DF owner • CBF to PL, HU and UA planned • Peerings: 10 GE connection to SIX, VIX and NIX • Commodity IP transit (Sprint, GTS) • Connection to GEANT CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  6. CBF Bratislava - Wien • Gigabit ethernet in production since Aug. 2002 • 108 km of G.652 fibre - chromatic dispersion too high for today’s ZR XENPAKs • Changed the intercity part for G.655 fibre: 6 km of G.652 + 90 km of G.655 + 12 km of G.652 • Connection from G.652 to G.655 had to be spliced • 10-gigabit ethernet in production since 26.1.2006 • NIL solution, no amplifier nor DCM needed CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  7. CBF Bratislava - Brno • 200 km of G.652 fibre • Gigabit ethernet in production since Apr. 2003 • L2 switch used as signal repeater • not optimal if several lambdas need to be installed • CESNET developed and deployed NIL solution with CzechLight amplifiers providing 4 lambdas • 10-gigabit ethernet in production since 14.2.2006 CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  8. External Traffic CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  9. National Backbone • 1770 km of dark fibre • 2 providers: Orange, Slovak Railways • IRU-like contracts for 10 years • Maintenance provided by DF owner CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  10. Metropolitan Networks • Originally in 8 regional centres • Now also in other towns • Ducts + cables owned by SANET • upto 144 fibre strands per cable • maintenance outsourced to specialized company • Coordinated activities with other investors • significantly lower trenching costs • Cooperation with local governments CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  11. Metropolitan Networks (2) • Some municipalities are members of SANET • Their dark fibre infrastructure is available to other members free of charge • schools, hospitals, museums, libraries • SANET provides technical support and know-how CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  12. Backbone Equipment • 16 x Catalyst 6509 • 4 x 10 GE, 48 x GE, 48 x FE ports • 10 x Catalyst 3750/3550 • 2 x GE, 24 x FE ports • Long reach optical transceivers • approx. 70 pieces in total CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  13. Optical Monitoring • Recent transceivers have the ability to report real-time operating parameters: • laser temperature/current, RX/TX optical power • Ultimate requirement for CEF networks • Good support on DWDM/SDH equipment • But support on ethernet switches or routers is sometimes buggy or non-existent • Need to push vendors to implement it • Compulsory on all new equipment purchases CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  14. Optical Monitoring (2) CVT-Bratislava# show interfaces transceiver Optical Optical Temperature Voltage Current Tx Power Rx Power Port (Celsius) (Volts) (mA) (dBm) (dBm) ------- ----------- ------- -------- -------- -------- Te1/1 34.6 0.00 33.6 -1.5 -4.6 Te1/2 32.0 0.00 8.8 -2.5 -2.9 Te1/4 34.0 0.00 101.6 1.2 -21.9 Te2/1 33.1 0.00 30.5 -1.1 -5.0 Te2/2 36.7 0.00 101.2 1.1 -14.6 Te2/4 34.4 0.00 102.7 0.7 -13.6 Gi3/3 45.9 3.30 34.6 2.9 -20.2 Gi4/12 40.7 3.30 36.1 2.8 -20.8 Gi5/1 35.6 3.32 5.1 -4.5 -5.8 Gi5/2 35.1 3.32 14.4 -5.0 -15.1 CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  15. Research & Future Plans • Advanced layer-2 for ethernet networks • spanning-tree protocol blocks all redundant links • leads to inefficient use of resources and suboptimal packet flows • two activities to address these problems: • IEEE’s 802.1aq shortest path bridging • IETF’s TRILL (based on routing bridge proposal) CEF Workshop Praha 2006

  16. Research & Future Plans (2) • 100-gigabit ethernet development • native next step for SANET without the need for additional technology • no change in overall network concept • with advanced modulation and 4 lambdas @ 12.5G reach over dark fibre might be similar to 10 GE • if ready in 2010, it will match SANET’s upgrade cycle CEF Workshop Praha 2006
