StarLight Engineering Partnerships
• Developers of 6TAP, the IPv6 global testbed, notably ESnet and Viagenie (Canadian), have an IPv6 router installed at StarLight
• NLANR works with STAR TAP on network measurement; the NLANR AMP (Active Measurement Platform) is located at STAR TAP
![Page 16: Thomas A. DeFanti, Maxine Brown Principal Investigators, STAR TAP/StarLight](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062722/56813ad1550346895da2fb34/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
StarLight Middleware Partnerships Forming
• Provide tools and techniques for (university) customer-controlled 10 Gigabit network flows
• Build general control mechanisms from emerging toolkits, such as Globus, for Grid network resource access and allocation services
• Test a range of new tools, such as GMPLS and OBGP, for designing, configuring and managing optical networks and their components
• Create a new generation of tools for appropriate monitoring and measurements at multiple levels
