Standard Service Elements
 Bandwidth for each User Site;
 User Site-specific service and traffic management through
COS mechanisms
 Service Levels depending on the Service Type selected by
User Sites;
 Secured VPN provided through Multi Protocol Label Switching
(“MPLS”) technology;
 Access leased line including its provisioning and monitoring;
 Regular reporting on the VPN performance (Quality of Service
indicators);
 Network Management and Fault management for all Service

elements, all provided on a 724365 basis.
 Router Management (PE and CE) – dedicated VPN Owner

RMDCN Service Elements
 Connection to the Network
- In general, doubling of Frame Relay access speed – IP
BANDWIDTH
- Speed Access Line - nearest available
- Direct (Leased Line, Ethernet) CE – PE or Frame Relay PVC
between CE and PE
 Gold Service Type
- Class of Service
 Backup
- Enhanced Resilience: NAS ISDN Backup

ISDN Speed limitation (OBS support)

MPLS – Strengths and Weaknesses

Robust Technology
Simpler network management:
- Native any to any connectivity
- Flexible use of available bandwidth
- Simplify the engineering required for site
interconnection
- Upgradeability
Allows to benefit from MPLS developments:
- Diversity of access methods (xDSL, Internet, LL…)
- Availability of a large panel of access technologies
and bandwidths
- Built-in management of prioritization mechanism
with IP and MPLS
Cost improvement on global recurring costs
More efficient backup solution  better level of
resilience
MPLS corresponds to market network provider
core strategy
RMDCN Network Architecture

Traffic partitioning more difficult to
implement
Site-to-site bandwidth guarantees are
difficult to achieve
Costs are higher for smaller sites (Costs
redistribution mechanism)

Access Methods - dedicated Access
 Technologies
- Native IP – Direct access (LL)
- Frame Relay access, Ethernet access type
 IP Bandwidth
- A unique service on each
type of dedicated access
LL

- A flexible parameter
for the site sizing
- From 64 kbps up to 50 Mbps

GOLD – Data Classes Of Service Standard COS profiles

60% - D1, 30% - D2, 10% - D3

66% - D1, 33% - D2

100% - D2
SILVER – Unique COS

100% of the IP bandwidth
 Approved option for the traffic allocation:

D1: 75% - ECMWF dissemination and GTS

D2: 20% - Aladin/RETIM/LACE/coupling File Transmission

D3: 5% - Other (Default)

COS Management
 Data classes D1, D2 and D3
- CB-WFQ for all classes (relative weight = relative priority in case
of congestion)
- No layer 3 shaping: Each data class can use up to the IP
bandwidth
- No more Frame Relay facilities: Traffic always limited to the IP
bandwidth
CB-WFQ: Class Based – Weighted Fair Queuing

APPLICATION CLASSIFICATION RULES
 From the CE to the Backbone.
-
OBS has configured the Network’s application classification rules that
define how the CE router manages the application traffic classification (ie
prioritization) for the outgoing traffic. Application traffic is assigned to
the corresponding COS class (D1, D2 or D3). Unclassified application
traffic will by default be assigned to the “by default” COS class.
 From the Network to the CE.
-
In this direction, the Network takes precedence over the sender User Site
(using COS) and automatically classifies the received data in the same
COS. If the COS used is not configured on the access, then the received
traffic is classified as “unknown type of traffic” and put in the “by
default” COS configured on the access. The per-COS traffic assignment
rules correspond to how traffic flow is mapped to a COS, and is similar to
specifying an access control list. If any incoming traffic is received that
does not match any of the provided rules, this traffic is sent into the lower

level class (might be D2 or D3).

- NAS BACKUP – SINGLE CPE
- NAS BACKUP – DUAL CPE (Warm Standby) – Enhanced
- ON-NET BACKUP – DUAL CPE
 Mission Critical Connection

Traffic Partitioning
 MPLS IPVPN:
- No PVC – No CIR – No guaranteed throughput between source
destination
- Any-to-any connectivity
 To limit the any-to-any exposure Access Control Lists
can be defined on local routers

Routing issues
 Between CE router and NAS router: HSRP
 Mission Critical Setup: 2 CE routers - HSRP
 LAN Route redistribution
- BGP
- EIGRP
- OSPF
- RIP v1, RIP v2
- Static

Background – The SRF2 Document
 Service Request Form 2
- Used by OBS to

Collect the technical information for each RMDCN site

Internally build the CE routers configurations
- ECMWF is the entry point

Complete the SRF2 documents on behalf of the RMDCN
sites

Background – The SRF2 Document
 The pre-filled OBS SRF2 document
- One pre-filled SRF2 by OBS per RMDCN IPVPN site
- The focus is on the required technical details pages
