  1. Enabling an agile infrastructure to better support Real Time Collaboration Jean Turgeon (JT) VP, Technical Solutions Marketing #AvayaATF

  2. IT Challenges and Trends • Consumerization and tablets • Context Awareness requirements • Inter-departmental / Virtual Security • Social Networking • Virtualization of Enterprise • Fabric Technology battle – Data Centers and more… • When 5x9’s isn’t good enough • Cloud based services with multi-tenancy • IT Complexity must be reduced, storage explosion • Faster TTS, Real Time Collaboration in Real Time !!!!

  3. A Recap of Technology disruptions • Arcnet/100VG-Anylan/TR/FDDI/ATM to Ethernet LANs • Analog to Digital • ISL to VLAN Tagging (IEEE 802.1Q) • VinesIP/IPX/LAT/Decnet to IP • EIGRP/RIP to OSPF • IP Clustering/Pilables to Stackables • Campus Edge Chassis to Stackables • MPLS Enterprise to Carrier MPLS • Active/Standby based resiliency to Active/Active • TDM PBX to IP Telephony • DVMRP multicast to PIM based • IP Telephony to UC • EoR/MoR to ToR • Overlay WLAN to Distributed forwarding • Corporate End points to BYOD • Ethernet+IP Data Centers to Fabric based Data Centers • ToR to dToR • Contact Centers to UC enabled CC • Private to Cloud based services • UC to Collaboration • Room Video Conferencing to Mobile VC • Data Center Fabrics to Enterprise wide Ethernet Fabric • TDM branches to Ethernet WAN branches • Proprietary Fabric to standards based Fabric • PIM based Multicast to Ethernet Fabric based Multicast • Openflow to ? • CC to Awareness • ???? to SDN? • IPv4 to IPv6 • H.323 to SIP

  4. Experiencing Problems…? Perhaps the old way is no longer good enough… Inflexible infrastructure impacting time-to-service Complex protocols cause operational burden & instability Design limitations restrict agility & adoption of new services IT nervous and resisting BYOD & Guest Access Multicast is complex, lacks scalability & reliability 24x365 everywhere demands consistent resiliency model Inadequate visibility into application-network interactions Exploding Data Center east-west traffic impacting applications Campus, Data Center, & Branch need to be logically integrated Worried about committing to one proprietary technology

  5. A New Era for Networking Virtual Services Fabric 3 key strategic shifts for the Enterprise Mobile Collaboration and BYOD Cloud (Private, Public, Hybrid) Social Networking The old network needs to evolve to support Real Time Collaboration and new services in Real Time! Your network was finally Spanning Tree FREE! Core VLANs were a thing of the past? Provision your edge only! CLI & device level configuration were replaced by network wide provisioning tools? Physical Topology design limitations were eliminated? Multicast Routing was possible without PIM? NAC was replaced by consistent Policy based access control? Wireless and wired were now fully integrated and e911 compliant? What is Maintenance windows could be eliminated? PCI compliance was easily possible? TTS was substantially reduced, down to minutes? WHAT IF…

  6. The Changing Customer Conversation 98% of College graduate traffic is Text vs Phone calls Midwest Hey Jay, we’re sorry we hit a low note with you. We’d like to help, please click http://bit.ly/iMRgWZ to connect with us live. Thank you! Mobile Context-Aware Social Jay Roberts Set presence information Manage multiple calls, just like in the office The expensive new Onyx guitar that I bought at Midwest just last week is already warped!

  9. Network as a Service (NaaS) NETWORK APPLICATIONS APPLICATIONS

  10. The Right Model for YOUR CAMPUS! Server Access Data Center Core Campus Core Distribution (optional) Servers Edge Switch Clustering VSP 9000/7000 / ERS 8000 / ERS 5000 Series IT controlled end points and “Fixed” Wireless access Consistent Architecture end to end – From Servers to Desktop Inter-operability with any 3rd party dual homing devices or equipment Enable Layer 3 Services where your business needs to WAN/VPN Core All Links Active sub-second Failover, and Spanning Tree-free Applications are not impacted pending any failure – Quality of Experience Optimized for Real Time Collaboration Services Branch Server Access Data Center Core Servers Virtual Office Remote Worker Internet

  11. An ineffective ToR modelNot optimized for next gen applications Data Center Core IST A single Web Page request will access up to 12 different Databases !

  12. A Closer look at Data CenterConnectivity Flexibility – Rip & Replace!!! Data Center Core Without Cat6500 Core with VSS, Spanning Tree required Typical deployment Cat4500 or Cat6500 depending on size Typically Cat6500 X VSS Cat6500 core required 10Gig only for Active/Active End of Row (Dual Chasis only) Cat4500 Cat6500 End of Row (Chassis Solution only) Cat4500 Cat6500 Top of Rack Switch Cat3750E Top of Rack Switch Cat3750E

  13. Cisco Nexus Data Center How many Tiers would you like???? Nexus 7000 Nexus 7000 Nexus 5000 Nexus 2000 Nexus 1000V

  14. The East-West (Horizontal) Revolution Delivering the Cloud-grade difference • Now this means: • Most traffic now goes rack-to-rack, directly between servers • …ToR-to-ToR-to-ToR-to-ToR… • Inter-rack capacity is now crucial • Terabit-class interconnect avoids congestion and latency The future: East-West traffic will dominate Data Center traffic* – 80% Top-of-Rack Switches Avaya delivers the industry’s only Terabit-class, non-blocking Horizontal Chassis solution Alternatives introduce congestion & latency, additional equipment & hops, consume more ports Application Servers * Gartner: ‘Your Data Center is heading for traffic chaos’ – April, 2011

  15. Scalable Uplink Bandwidth Transition to 10G/40G/100G when needed Avaya Horizontal Stacking Solutions Data Center Core IST

  16. Avaya dToR model – Optimized for AppsWhen TCO and Business Continuity matter ERS 8800 Core – GbE focus Distributed ToR extends the virtual backplane between Server Pods VSP 9000 Core – 10GbE focus Switch Clustering Horizontal Chassis • Best-in-Class Bandwidth • Price / Performance Leader • Expandable to Eight Racks Wide • Energy Efficient • In-Service Maintenance • Lifetime Hardware Warranty GbE Servers – up to 1.1Tbps capacity 10GbE Servers – up to 10.2Tbps capacity

  17. Fabric Technology – You have choices! • Now there is a technology battle… • IEEE SPB (Shortest Path Bridging) & IETF RFC 6329 • IETF TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) • FabricPath • QFabric • MLAG (Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation Group) • Sorry, but this one doesn’t cut it… • Vendor A = SMLT/RSMLT (2001) • Vendor C = VSS/VDC (2007) • Vendor H = IRF (2008) • Vendor E = MC-LAG (2010) • Vendor J = Virtual Chassis • Vendor B = ..?

  18. Network Virtualization Compliments App Virtualization VM Mobility Network Core Virtual Service Network • Superior Robustness. Resiliency • Transparent Network Services • Removing Boundaries • Simplified Infrastructure • Reduce Human Error Factor • VM moved identified • Connectivity template auto reapplied to VM • Application Server template applied • Services Maintained • Application Moved Application Servers Network virtualization simplifies VM Mobility and Network Management completes the solution Open API VPS vCenter

  19. “Data Center Fabric” Eliminate Topology limitations ERS 8800 Fabric Connect Core VSP 9000 North-South/Core-ToR Interconnects VSP 7000 Distributed Data Center Distributed Top-of-Rack SPB-mode DToR Flexible Interconnect: 32 Switches / 1,024 10GbE Ports &17.92Tbps FAST-mode DToR Structured Interconnect: 8 Switches / 256 10GbE Ports & 5.12Tbps
