Over the last 5 years SURFnet’s innovation
engine is powered by:
•Budget 1999-2003: 70MEuro
Research Networking is the innovation engine between research and market introduction of new services
•Partnership with industry

• Dual stack IPv4 and IPv6 since 2001
• 500,000 users
• 60% customers connected at Gbit/s level
![Page 7: LambdaGRID the NREN (r)Evolution Kees Neggers Managing Director SURFnet Reykjavik, 26 August 2003.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94bae6d4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

What did we learn
• Lambdas are an excellent basis for IP networking• Dark fiber and gigabit Ethernet is an excellent way to
connect customers• Researchers are interested in direct access to
lambda’s for high bandwidth, low jitter, low latency point tot point connections
• Incumbent operators were reluctant to sell dark fiber• Added value of network operators in NG NRENs is
limited• International cooperation in developing lambda
networking is essential

NREN challenge
• Accommodate needs of scientific users for higher speed, higher quality networking
• While protecting the performance of the network for current users
• And keeping the successful end-to-end model of the internet

What did we learn
• Point to point lambdas is a powerful service• Current Optical-Electrical-Optical equipment is
capable of allocating sub-lambdas to individual applications
• Management is still cumbersome• Hybrid network architecture seems to be the
only valuable NREN option for the future:– Packet switched internet for regular many-to-many usage– Light path switched internet for new high speed
few-to-few usage• LambdaGRID is needed
![Page 17: LambdaGRID the NREN (r)Evolution Kees Neggers Managing Director SURFnet Reykjavik, 26 August 2003.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94bae6d4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

LambdaGrid
• A grid is a set of networked, middleware-enabled computing resources.
• A LambdaGrid is a grid in which the lambda networks themselves are resources that can be scheduled, like all other computing resources.

and NetherLight • Will not replace current best efforts networks• Major initial funding
– GigaPort Project (SURFnet) – US National Science Foundation (Euro-Link award
to University of Illinois at Chicago)– Canada's CANARIE
• “bring us your lambdas”

Design principles GigaPort NG Network
• Realization of a next generation network with seamless end-to-end communication:
– Integration of lambdas in the IP network– Multi-domain networking– Ethernet services as part of the WANs– Intelligence of networks and the associated
responsibilities at the edges
• Paving the way to a ubiquitous and scalable Services Grid

SURFnet6 overview
• Congestion free transparent end-to-end IP transport
– unicast and multicast; IPv4 and IPv6; all at wire speed
– 1 Gbit/s, 10 Gbit/s and beyond• Lambda services to eventually all connected
organizations • Layer 1: DWDM equipment• Layer 2: Ethernet equipment• Layer 3: Small routed core at 2 to 5 locations
![Page 25: LambdaGRID the NREN (r)Evolution Kees Neggers Managing Director SURFnet Reykjavik, 26 August 2003.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94bae6d4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
SURFnet6 will be based on Dark Fiber
• Over 3000 km fiber pairs already available, average price paid for 15 year IRUs is 7 Euro/m per pair.
• More than 25 co-location facilities in use.
• Managed dark fiber infrastructure will be extended with new routes
![Page 26: LambdaGRID the NREN (r)Evolution Kees Neggers Managing Director SURFnet Reykjavik, 26 August 2003.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649eaa5503460f94bae6d4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
SURFnet6 Call for Proposal for industrial partner(s)
• In June 2003 a Contract Notice has been published in the Official Journal of the EC to invite industrial partners to contribute to the final design of SURFnet6 and take responsibility for supplying, implementing, maintaining and supporting transmission, switching and routing equipment for SURFnet6

Conclusion
• NREN users need new services that current networks will not be able to support
• Telecommunication infrastructures will become part of the grid and will be intergrated in scientific instruments
• NRENs do need to react carefully and timely to these developments.
• Lambda networking is not a revolution
