  1. A Gathering of State Networks St Louis Mo. April 2000

  2. O verview • Mission • NYSERNet advances network technologies and applications that enable collaboration and promote technology transfer for research and education, expanding these to government, industry, and the broader community.

  3. O verview • A Network of Firsts 1985 - NYSERNet founded. 1986 - Receives NSF, NYS, NYT funding to build a regional network. 1987 - First NYSERNet node goes live. 1987 - 56 Kbps statewide network deployed. 1988 - Co-development of SNMP protocol 1989 - First T1 backbone deployed. 1989 - First to deploy dedicated 24x7 NOC. 1989 - First redundant T1 backbone. 1990 - First regional to spin off ISP, PSINet. 1991 to 1993 - First Network to extend Internet to K-12 and Libraries. 1994 - First Internet Training Center.

  4. O verview 1994 - NYSERNet members drive the need to upgrade to T3 (45 Mbit/sec) connectivity. 1994 - NYSERNet partners with NYNEX, Frontier, and Sprint to deploy a redundant 45 Mbit/sec backbone throughout New York. 1996 - NYSERNet forms another for-profit company, AppliedTheory, to market commercial Internet services. 1997-1998 - NYSERNet continues to seek funding from the NSF in support of network development for education and research, including HPC, wireless networking, videoconferencing. 1999 - Deploy OC-12 network statewide with gateways to vBNS and Abilene.

  5. O verview • Strategic Goals for 2000 • Undertake a major national initiative to advance networking technology. • Continue improvement of the network. • Enable and deploy network applications. • Continue to build NYSERNet’s external relations. • Enhance membership services.
