Articulated Private Networks in UCLP Eduard Grasa Network Engineer TNC 2007 Lingby, May 24th Agenda • Introduction • UCLP Description • Use Case: Scenario • Use Case: Network Provider Perspective • Use Case: Advanced User Perspective • Use Case: Regular End User Perspective • Current status and next steps 2 What is UCLP? • User Controlled LightPaths – a configuration and provisioning tool built around grid technology using web services • User can combine together various links, routers and switches to produce a wide are network that is under their control • Articulated Private Network (APN) • Uses Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and so network can be integrated with other web service applications • With SOA instruments, devices, sensors and wireless devices can also be integrated • All under user control and architecture 3 Articulated Private Networks Multi-Domain APN Partitioned Node Pass Through Node Multi-Domain APN Domain A Domain B Domain C 4 Agenda • Introduction • UCLP Description • Use Case: Scenario • Use Case: Network Provider Perspective • Use Case: Advanced User Perspective • Use Case: Regular End User Perspective • Current status and next steps 5 Classification of the UCLP Services APN ScenariosWS GUI client(s) Any other service LP-WS 802.1q-WS XC-WS Higher Level Services / Applications ... ...

Slot 1 Port 1 GbE Owner = admin Slot 2 Port 1 OC192, Ch 1-24 Owner = admin Slot 1 Port 2 GbE Owner = admin Slot 2 Port 1 OC192, Ch 25-48 Owner = admin Network Element 7 UCLP: Resource abstraction Logical Resource WebService Cross-Connect Web Service query bond rsID = 002 type = lightpath Owner = admin Endpoint1 = … Endpoint2 = … rsID = 001 type = interface Owner = admin Endpoint1 = … partition • Provides software tools to allow the network administrator to create logical resources that provide an abstracted view of the network element resources and how are they linked to each other.

Owner = userA Resource 001 Resource 002 Cross-Connect Web Service Cross-Connect Web Service Resource List Web Service Optical Fiber 9 UCLP: Topology creation/editing • Provides software tools to allow users (including physical network admins) to create, reconfigure and delete network topologies using the logical resources acquired from different resource providers. Utility Web Service A Utility Web Service A creates point to point connections using SONET/SDH resources (withVCAT, LCAS, GFP) Utility Web Service B creates point to point and point to multipoint connections over Ethernet resorces (using VLANs, Q-inQ, …) Utility Web Service B … Other..

NREN B NREN A GÉANT 2 12 Agenda • Introduction • UCLP Description • Use Case: Scenario • Use Case: Network Provider Perspective • Use Case: Advanced User Perspective • Use Case: Regular End User Perspective • Current status and next steps 13 Network Provider Functionality • Create the Physical Network – Add network elements and physical links • Delete / Create connections (on a network element per network element basis) • Monitor the physical network, see usage statistics. • Create logical resources (lightpaths and interfaces) • Use the logical resources himself (directly or through use of high level applications / utility web services) • Lease logical resource to other users / Get new logical resources from other users 14 GÉANT 2 physical network 15 Create Logical Resources 16 Create a Resource List and Export it 17 Network is partitioned among different users 18 Agenda • Introduction • UCLP Description • Use Case: Scenario • Use Case: Network Provider Perspective • Use Case: Advanced User Perspective • Use Case: Regular End User Perspective • Current status and next steps 19 Advanced User Functionality • Create logical resources (lightpaths) – Can create a lightpath ws out of two adjacent interface ws • Use the logical resources himself (directly or through use of high level applications / utility web services) • Lease logical resource to other users / Get new logical resources from other users 20 Get one or more Resource List(s) 21 Merge all the Resource Lists 22 APNs are multidomain… 23 Use the APN.. Advanced user creates connections from the GUI Advanced user creates an instance of the “APN Scenarios” service for a regular user 24 Agenda • Introduction • UCLP Description • Use Case: Scenario • Use Case: Network Provider Perspective • Use Case: Advanced User Perspective • Use Case: Regular End User Perspective • Current status and next steps 25 Regular User Functionality • Use the logical resources himself through the use of high level applications / utility web services 26 Agenda • Introduction • UCLP Description • Use Case: Scenario • Use Case: Network Provider Perspective • Use Case: Advanced User Perspective • Use Case: Regular End User Perspective • Current status and next steps 27 UCLP Product Subscriptions • UCLP Open Source ~ June 2007 – Forge of different modules (forge.uclp.ca) – Not a System – Different Organizations can contribute • UCLP Community Edition (FREE) ~ June 2007 – Software Appliance without commercial features – Updated every 6 months – No support, no maintenance • UCLP Business Edition (Commercial) ~ September 2007 – Software Appliance with commercial features – Frequent updates, monitoring – Standard support • UCLP Enterprise Edition (Commercial) ~ end 2007 – – – – Software Appliance with commercial features Frequent updates, monitoring On-line Shopping, Accounting, Branding Standard support 28 Appliance web interface screenshot 29 Current Status • Supported technologies: – Untagged Ethernet, SONET with CCAT. • Supported equipment: – Cisco ONS 15454, Nortel OME 6500, Nortel HDXc. • Available utility services: – “APN Scenarios” service: You can define a set of preconfigured network topologies, and set them up / tear them down with a single call. • Available UCLP releases: – UCLP Community Edition (coming end of June) 30 Future activities • Add support for more technologies: – MANTICORE project: physical and logical routers, users will be able to create their own customized IP network. – Add support for SDH, MPLS, tagged Ethernet, Virtual Concatenation, ROADMs, GMPLS. • Add more utility web services: – Currently a Network Reservation System for UCLP is under development. An adapter will be developed under the PHOSPHORUS project so that the UCLP Reservation System is compliant with the PHOSPHORUS project. • Create a “UCLP Group”, that, together with Inocybe Technologies Inc. can provide professional UCLP solutions: support, training, customized services. 31 More Information • UCLP Technical information – http://www.uclp.ca – [email protected] • UCLP Collaboration – [email protected] • UCLP Product Information – i2cat booth at TNC 2007 – [email protected] • See also the i2cat booth at TNC 2007 32
