  1. WP7 (Network) status &plans Paris 6th of March 2002 Pascale PRIMET INRIA/ RESO - ENS Lyon Pascale.Primet@ens-lyon.fr

  2. WP7 specificity • In testbed0 and testbed1 the networking functionality was here (<= IP technology) • WP7 is in charge of a shared resource called “Network Element” • Quantifiable => network monitoring • Efficient => advanced transport protocols • Flexible => differentiated network services • Secure => firewalls/ encrypted channels? Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  3. Logical view of the Grid Network Ressource = CE (computing element) ou Ressource = SE (storage element) Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  4. « Physical » view of the Network Public Network No security No predictable performances No control on the traffic The flat INTERNET R = CE ou R = SE Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  5. WP7 aims => WP7 is helping Network Service Provider in designing specific E2E network services by mapping the application/middleware requirements to network services (QoS, Multicast, security…) <=WP7 is helping A/Mw in getting E2E performance : measurement, problems (TCP tuning, hardware limitations….) Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  6. What is a “ Network Element”? Network Element associated to the SiteA SiteA SiteB SiteD SiteC Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  7. How to characterize a “NE”? • a NE is belonging to some Site • A NE is a “shared resource” that permit communication over a WAN interconnexion • a NE is a set of oriented IP links • a NE is characterized at IP level by: • A loss rate mean/max/average… • A loss pattern • A delay mean/max/average… • A delay pattern • A nominal rate (or TCP throughput) mean/max/average… • An aggreed QoS….(SLA) • WP7 is discussing this concept, trying to clarify and model it for the ATF Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  8. WP7 specific plan for 2002 T7.1 : Collaboration with Dante/NRENs/SEQUIN • Pilot services test (QoS, multicast) • Dedicated machines in GEANT PoPs T7.2 : QoS and advanced services - Requirements studies and test (WP10) - Reliable Multicast - High performance transport protocol (TCP/nonTCP) T7.3 : Network Monitoring Architecture • Refine the model with WP2/WP3 • Prepare a plan to analyse monitoring data T7.4 : Security => pls see Dave Kelsey talk on Friday morning Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  9. WP7 Strategy • Year1: • Network requirements studies • Network connectivity/capacity evaluation • Initial network monitoring architecture proto/test • Year2: • Optimize the Monitoring Architecture • (visualization, measurement scheduling, data analysis…) • Performance optimization • Security design • Experiments and developments with Net providers, with other network projects (Geant, Sequin? DataTag) Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  10. WP7 strategy • Year2 : study/test; Year3: provide • Network forecasting tools/API (perf opt) • Grid traffic monitoring tools (accounting) • High throughput services/API? (perf opti) • Reliable multicast service/API? (new service) Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

Network Monitoring Architecture Network managers Network managers Resource Broker Resource Broker P_RTPL P_RTPL MapCenter MapCenter P_NWS P_NWS Middleware Middleware Publication LDAP LDAP Forecaster Forecaster Analysis/ processing Data processor Data processor Raw Raw Storage Data Collector Data Collector Mesurement PingEr PingEr IPerf IPerf GridFTP GridFTP SNMP SNMP RTPL RTPL … … Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  12. Collaboration with GEANT • E2E :Close participation to pilot services • Test of IP Premium service/WP10 • In Backbone : • Use of dedicated machines in GEANT POPs • Amsterdam, Geneva, London • Tests of high throughput transfers • Test of IP multicast for Reliable Multicast • Sharing WP7 monitoring and DANTE monitoring data Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  13. WP7 and other collaborations • WP7 and DataTAG • QoS service study and experiment • High Throughput study and experiment • Network monitoring and measurement Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  14. WP7 and other WPs interactions • WP1 – WP2 : monitoring/forecasting for scheduling/ optimization • WP3 : NetMon/R-GMA test /MapCenter integration • WP6 : provisionning/ firewall config/ LAN config/Netmon deployment… • WP8-9-10 : VO links and traffic monitoring, QoS and perf requirement studies/test Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  15. WP3/WP7/WP4 : Monitoring • 14H30 – 16H : 5th of March /EDG Paris conference • Netsaint presentation (INFN) • Discussion : how GUI can be interfaced with MapCenter, R-GMA and WP4 sensors? • Coordination of the Network Monitoring activity in EDG - WP3/WP7 interaction: - GRIDftp logs Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  16. WP7/WP2/WP1: optimization • Tuesday afternoon 16h-18h : • Presentation of the Query Optimization API (WP2) • Presentation of the replica optimisation based on an economical model • Algorithm for network optimization (network cost function) (WP7) • Discussion : coordination of this activity • WP7 will provide an API for a NetworkCost function • Defining a « site ID » - to map CE or SE IP address to some IP address/hostname representing the site. • Deadline : end of May Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  17. Resource sharing • A long term debate in the Internet community: QoS-IP • 3 strategies: • No garanties => Best Effort • Measure, monitor the perf and adapt • Communication/computing/storage • Strict Guaranties => Reservation • throughput, CPU, disk • Statistical Guaranties => Prioritisation • Connexions, jobs, users…. • Which type of guaranty you really need, • how the solutions scales, what is the cost • What are the advantages and the drawback of the solutions… Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  18. Resource sharing • Which type of guaranties do you really need? • Do the solution scales ? • What is the cost ? • What are the advantages and the drawback of each solutions? • In the Internet, we are working since more then ten years on the subject…. • We still have only Best Effort…and adaptive protocol/application like TCP… Pascale PRIMET/ INRIA

  21. Monitoring Tools • Monitoring of Round Trip Time and Packet Loss • edg-pinger (integrated in release 1.0) • RIPEncc one way loss and delay (specific links) • Monitoring of throughput (release 1.1 or 1.2) • edg-iperf • edg-rtpl • DataGRID status visualization • Mapcenter (collaboration with GLOBUS and WP3) • Other tools evaluation (Netsaint....)
