Agenda
• Economic drivers and architectures for
Metropolitan IP Networks
• The importance of efficient facilities utilization
• More on IP QoS

Long Live IP
• IP divorces applications from transport
– Value added services will be IP based
– IP allows services to be delivered independently of the data link technology
– Customers want to exploit price-performance curves of access technologies while
having each of these technologies inter-operate
• IP QoS has arrived
– IP QoS mechanisms can be applied to specific applications of individual customers
– IP QoS is superior to ATM QoS for IP transport
• IP will be used for networks, ATM remains a viable link layer technology
– DLECs currently provide integrated IP services using ATM transport. As lower cost link
layer technologies are deployed (such as Gigabit Ethernet/Fiber), DLECs will abandon
ATM.

Architectural Drawbacks for Local Data
Example: Two customer routers, both connected to a Layer 2 Cloud via PVCs
Layer 2 Switch
•
S
x2
•
Can require more than 6x the SONET ring bandwidth of
an IP/SONET connection
Why? SONET was designed assuming a local PSTN
switch that could choose a local trunk group. Star data
architectures are unable to leverage this ability.
–
–
•
At some point, local data volumes become large enough
for the economics to favor the deployment of data
switches and routers closer to the edge of the network
–
–
–
R
R
The current architecture was developed when data volumes
were low, switches were expensive, and operations
procedures and expertise was evolving
The current architecture is best when data traffic isn’t local
Any economic analysis would have to measure the amount
and characteristics of the local data to determine the
opportunity for savings
The analysis would then focus on facilities cost versus
switch placement, operations, and maintenance costs
An unlikely analysis conclusion would be to simply
distribute more switches and routers across our existing
SONET …

•
If a switch or router was placed on every SONET ring, you would still double the data bandwidth
required between two local offices (compared to a direct SONET connection)*
Adding a second switch on the ring in some cases will TRIPLE the SONET bandwidth required
•
Optimizing SONET utilization (for local data) requires switching capability in every C.O.
–
–
–
–
Optimizing SONET costs doesn’t mean you have optimized total service delivery cost
Today operational, service, and complete network topology roadblocks hinder such a network configuration
Architectures which address these problems are emerging
Price points for equipment and operations are changing, and are different than when Fast Packet services were
first deployed
* This example intentionally ignores the benefits of multiplexing traffic to multiple destinations, both local & remote.

This fiber run is carrying an OC-12 worth of ‘wasted’ bandwidth.
With traditional SONET, you cannot use this available capacity
to transport low priority traffic.

Different Organizations would manage the Routers and the Transport Layer
• Different skill sets for Operations
• Useful life of long haul Lasers is longer than life of Router
• Ethernet provides a simple interface within the C.O.
• Same network interface for Router to Router and Router to Customer
communications
• DWDM can be deployed to transport multiple Ethernet handoffs from the Routers
• Regulatory boundaries

More on IP QoS
eav
Page 23
Why IP QoS is Superior to IP/ATM QoS
• Applications talk IP
• IP routers can now identify IP application layer traffic flows, and prioritize
them across the LAN (i.e. QoS)
• Supporting IP flow QoS in the WAN is now becoming viable
• If IP QoS is deployable, having an intervening ATM QoS abstraction is
redundant, unnecessarily restrictive, and costly
–
–
–
–
QoS prioritization is done on the AR
Eliminates the need for the different types of ATM pipes
Eliminates traffic management and operational complexities of different pipes
Minimizes troubleshooting between the IP and ATM layers
• Managing QoS is now something customers can outsource to the network.
They don’t have to pre-sort their IP traffic into different types of ATM
QoS differentiated VC pipes
