- Description
- Currently the NPS ERN Network has a 1 Gbps peering connection to the CENIC DC Network. This project is to upgrade the NPS CENIC DC internet connection to a state of the art 10Gbps service. CENIC and NPS can leverage Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) optics technologies recently installed between NPS and CENIC as a result of the successful NPS/CENIC HPR 10Gbps upgrade. This project gives NPS significant additional high speed capabilities and path redundancies to the NPS campus. Associated with this upgrade are additional redundant paths to CENIC Points of Presence (POPs) and border firewall upgrades to support future research and education traffic demand. This upgrade becomes the foundation for future network service demands including grid storage/computing, virtualization, disaster recovery, distance learning, advanced video telepresence, and other initiatives. NPS has worked with CENIC in preparation for this network growth. The DWDM architecture recently implemented has the ability to support multiple 10Gbps circuits connected to CENIC and other networks with minimal non recurring costs. Some of these networks include CENIC DC, CENIC HPR, CENIC XD, Internet2, DREN, Monterey Peninsula DODnet, and Teragrid. Best of all, there are virtually no additional recurring costs to our existing CENIC subscription contract. With the new NPS 10Gbps architecture the 10Gbps port capacity is simply expanded incrementally, in a modular approach. This insures NPS network growth with nominal non-recurring costs in the years ahead.
