Transcript of New Generation Network GN2 Project
GN2 Project
• Commission contribution 100 M€• Proposal submission 2 October
2003• Evaluation• Negotiations March 2004• Start ~ September 2004• New GN2 network 1Q 2005
Objectives of the GN2 NGN
• Provide IP connectivity for NRENs - yearly growth 2x to 3x
• Provide high bandwidth for special appl.
• Provide services for GRIDs • Establish customer empowered
networks• Responsive to the expectations of
the community

New Paradigm
• GÉANT - emphasis on core network• NREN connecting to PoPs• Change in the basic approach• End-to-End QoS• Whole “chain”• Responsibility of the whole
community• Close co-operation
Technology
• Investigation of Transmission Costs• Skepticism re 40 Gbps• Interfacing Costs• OEO cross connects interesting• “All Optical” some way off• Emphasis on AAA and Control issues

RFP
• RFP Lunched in January• Proposals due in March• Evaluation committee• Difficult work - “we do not know,
what are we buying” • Work should be finished by
September• Continuous changeover in early
2005
Conclusion
