  1. Networking updates: CHECO CIO meeting Marla Meehl Network Engineering Manager UCAR/NCAR 2013-06-04 1

  2. Acronym soup • University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR; http://www.ucar.edu) • National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) • Front Range GigaPoP (FRGP) • UCAR Point of Presence (UPoP) • Bi-State Optical Network (BiSON) • Questions and discussions throughout as needed – and as for acronym soup ingredients, please ask if I miss one or check decoder page at http://bit.ly/acronym-soup

  3. Front Range GigaPoP (FRGP) • http://www.frgp.net • Netflow replacement coming • FMC/FTC agreed to purchase icmynetflow • Continued LANDER support • Other CSU projects: support for Rover, NDN, BGPmon too • PerfSonar deployments complete • Hosted Internet2 Network Performance Workshop April 3-4 at NCAR • 38 member attendees

  4. FRGP • Installing new 10/100Gbps interface card to support growth • Colocation updates - None • 1850 Pearl • 1200 Larimer • 910 15th • peering • 10G Google peering active at 910 • Comcast • TR/CPS – largest single FRGP/UPoP usage • Akamai • Netflix active at 1850 Pearl – carrying ~2Gbps of traffic • Considering Bresnan and other peering 4

  5. BiSON • Bi-State Optical Network (BiSON) • Major fiber move on BiSON-owned Mcleod fiber 10/13 • Contract awarded for move • Still working with Windstream/McLeod on shared funding options • ~$450K move • Received IRU and O&M pricing from Zayo – prohibitive • Timing of EAGLE-Net build and lack of Fort Collins support eliminates this option 4

  6. UCAR Point of Presence (UPoP) • http://upop.ucar.edu • 10G MOE coming – on order • National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) joining UPoP via Colorado School of Mines fiber path • Discussions with I2 on membership options - $10K/yr affiliate membership + $23.4K/yrparticipant fee • National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) – in discussions • The Geological Society of America - in discussions

  7. Internet2 • New cost model • Increases for Level1 schools - $30K/yrstarting in 2014 • SEGP increase 7/1/13 - $5K/yr starting on 7/1/14 • NET+ roll out • Non-member support and cost in question • Where to run NET+ traffic – research, TR/CPS, new path • Attended I2 Member Meeting – NET+ dominated • http://www.internet2.edu • http://www.internet2.edu/network/ • http://www.internet2.edu/netplus 4

  8. NLR/CBREC • CBREC meeting regularly • Considering interconnecting east/west via NLR existing lambdas/transponders • Looking at NLR versus I2 performance issues 4

  9. CDOT • Lots of fiber activity in various parts of the State • I-25 build – restarted by EAGLE-Net • US36 fiber into Boulder of great interest – ongoing discussion • S CO? 4

  10. CO Broadband Roundtable • Some ongoing (irregular) meetings • Jeff Custard is going to stop attending • Mountain Connect coming up – 6/16 – 6/17/13 • (http://mountainconnect.org/MC_2013_Home.html) 4

  11. Internet2 K20/SEGP • good interactions and links between content providers and K-20 groups looking for content • UCAR education and outreach involvement • as one of the SEGP reps for CO - please let Jeff know about any K-20 interest, content or user side questions or issues • will coordinate with EN (other two reps there) • Jeff is also serving as liaison between this k20 group and Quilt • (e.g., SEGP connectivity survey). • SEGP connectivity survey submitted 4

  12. WRN • Regular WTC and WPC calls • LEARN has joined WRN • WRN I2 KC Move to Chicago • Exchanging the backhaul circuit to KC in exchange for Starlight backhaul • 100G ports pending I2 for same cost this year and decreased costs next year (revenue neutral this year) 4

  13. Big Data • Marla participated in Advanced Regional & State Networks (ARNs): Envisioning the Future as Critical Partners in Data-Driven Science • All whitepapers and presentations available here: https://www.mcnc.org/envision • Problem facing entire scientific community • Also discussed at I2 Member Meeting

  14. Quilt items • http://www.thequilt.net • NOAA: Federal Government OMB Mandate for Trusted Internet Connections (TIC) and Potential Opportunities for Regional Networks • all Federal Civilian Agencies will be impacted • http://www.dhs.gov/trusted-internet-connections • Large impact to RONs – will shift traffic and funding • FRGP monitoring closely

  15. Quilt items • Discussing intra-RON peeringusing AL2S • Other uses for AL2S for RONs • AirWatch • http://www.air-watch.com/ • Mobile device, application, content, applications, and learning management • Quilt pricing program including FRGP/UPoP authorized buyers

  16. Quilt items • CIS survey highlights • Bandwidth growth 5.5 to 7.5Gbps inbound • 73% growth in 10Gbps circuits • ~150Gbps actual inbound bandwidth for the program • Cogent, Level3, CenturyLink, Hurricane Electric (top bandwidth) top providers • Jeff Custard participated in process again showing great leadership

  17. FRGP/UPoP Traffic – 1 – 5/13 • percent commercial 14.44 • percent peering 59.59 • percent other 25.97

  18. Futures/Challenges • New agreements and new algorithms in 2014 • BiSON growth, upgrade, funding • Supporting/funding services – NET+, etc. • Replacing expiring fiber IRUs • Supporting/funding 40/100Gbps 18

  19. Discussion • Any follow up questions or feedback? • Other items? 18
