Pacific Wave International Peering
Participants at the Pacific Wave peering exchange can…– Peer directly with major R&E networks worldwide; – Reduce costs associated with IP traffic that would
otherwise transit commercial carrier circuits; – Increase efficiency by directing traffic as quickly as
possible to the target network/organization;– Transfer IP traffic inclusive of multicast, IPv4, IPv6;– Access the NOC 24 x 7 x 365.
Pacific Wave is also a recommended exchange point for peering with the Abilene/Internet2 network.

Pacific Wave Facility
• Located in a state-of-the-art facility in incumbent telecommunications carrier grade hotel in downtown Seattle– Many colocation options within the hotel– Easy-access fiber-meet-me-room used for Pacific
Wave connections
• Fully redundant environmentals (DC power, HVAC, battery backup, fire suppression)
• 24x7 secure building and facility access

. . .
An ATM free zone! Redundant Gigabit Ethernet switch architecture provides two subnets and 128Gbps throughput. Multicast enabled with PIM-SM snooping.
Flexibility is the Design Key
• Self-selected peerings—you peer with who you want.
• Self-configured peerings—you control the BGP routes for your peering.
• Any IP traffic accepted.• Significantly cheaper than Commodity
Internet.• No AUP.• Support available 24 x 7 x 365.• Select either dual FE or dual GbE.
Optional: Commodity Internet Transit
• Available to all Pacific Wave Participants • Your ISP is the Pacific Northwest Gigapop• Service is multi-homed with the following vendors:
Cable & WirelessLevel3NTT/Verio
• 3Gbps total throughput structured over 3 independent, fully burstable Gigabit circuits
• 7x24 NOC services• Use-based pricing with high-volume (50+Mbps/mo)

National Lambda Rail
National Lambda Rail (NLR) is an initiative that will offer fiber services in support of advanced research and educational activities. NLR is spearheaded through a cooperative partnership between the – Corporation for Network Initiatives in California (CENIC);– Pacific Northwest Gigapop & University of Washington; – U.S. Supercomputing Centers; and– Other major U.S. research and education based networking
organizations.
Futures• In Process: upgrade of Pacific Wave to support 10GbE connections
• NLR will offer new opportunities:– Infrastructure for creation of new Pacific Wave nodes– Backhaul alternatives
• 2003: IEEAF/GEO/Tyco Telecommunications 10-Gbps from Japan to Seattle
• Continued support of advanced applications (e.g., streaming media, HDTV
applications)
Implementation & Operations Partners
In cooperation with IEEAF and Tyco, service design and implementation planning for a significant trans-Pacific circuit donation are underway today between
these research and education groups:
