Activation CLARA Roadmap CLARA – Cooperación Latino Americana de Redes Avanzadas CLARA Network Overview • The CLARA organization – Latin American Cooperation of Advanced Networks – will be responsible for the implementation and management of a network infrastructure that will interconnect the national academic networks of several Latin American countries ALICE Project • América Latina Interconectada con Europa • Started – June 2003 • Coordinator – DANTE • Partners – FCCN, RedIris, Renater, GARR and 17 LA-NRENs • Total budget – 12.5 M Euros (20% LA, 80% EU) Topology of the Network Topology of the Network • CLARA connectivity at the backbone is comprised of SDH circuits provided by Global Crossing which is the main provider of the connectivity • When a LA-NREN makes a connection to CLARA network, it will be made through one of the five main nodes deployed in the CLARA backbone • This connection gives access to CLARA backbone for the LA-NREN and the LANREN’s clients, and is designated as an Access Point Hardware of the Network • Each one of the five main nodes in CLARA network is a Cisco 12006 Router donated by Cisco Slot 0 Redundant RP Slot 1 4-Port Gigabit Ethernet ISE

designation stands for the infrastructure which integrates the advanced network, and is also a profitless civil association headquartered in the city of Montevideo (UY) that represents the interests of all the organizations that are part of the project CLARA Groups Technical Committee • Keep CLARA organization at the forefront of IP network advanced services • Coordinating the NEG and the NOC groups • Provide the best information and communications flow between the other groups regarding technical and political matters to the CLARA members • Takes the key role in developing the technical sessions and the regular meetings of CLARA’s staff NOC • Based in Mexico City (MX) • Headed by CUDI (Corporación Universitaria para el Desarrollo de Internet) • Group responsible for the day-to-day administration, control, monitoring and operation of all physical and logical infrastructures that composes the backbone of CLARA network • The work of CLARA NOC aims to assure high level of performance on the operation of the network and its interconnections NEG • Headquartered in Brazil, within the RNP (Rede Nacional de Ensino e Pesquisa) facilities • The CLARA NEG is responsible for all the network engineering including definition of the IP addressing and routing plan, and definition of the policies to be adopted for the advanced IP services backbone NEG • In conjunction with CLARA NOC, CLARA NEG will establish the maintenance routine activities needed to the good functioning of the network, as well as problem report procedures, failure recovery procedures, and procedures to scale the problems taking them to NEG whenever they cannot be solved in CLARA NOC extent only Agenda • • • • CLARA Network Overview CLARA Organizational Structure Network Activation CLARA Roadmap

Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Venezuela, the NREN’s are based on commercial Internet services at low speeds (frequently 256Kbps to 2 Mbps) • Most NREN´s in Latin America are still getting organized, but all countries in the region are betting on developing their organizations and infrastructure in the coming months • A clear common view exists on the importance of this type of infrastructure for the development of science, technology and education Next Steps TO GEANT Projects in Advanced Network High Energy Physics • Argentina – FCEN-UBA and Fermilab (Chicago) • Mexico – HEP (High Energy Physics) UNAM Projects in Advanced Network Astronomy - VLBI • Brazil – ROEN (RádioObservatório Espacial do Nordeste) • Mexico – INAOE (Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica, y Electrónica) • Joint efforts with UMASS Projects in Advanced Network Atmospheric Studies - LBA • Brazil – INPA (Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas na Amazônia) • Argentina – FCEN-UBA and CONICET • Mexico - UNAM Projects in Advanced Network Computer Science - LBA • Mexico – High Performance Computing Center UNAM • Argentina – Supercomputing FCEN-UBA • Brazil – Grid Computing - UFRJ Projects in Advanced Network Computer Science • First huge test of the network – sc2004 • Support for the Brazilian Physicists be able to participate on the challenge from the 6th to 12th of November/2004 • Pittsburg – PA – EUA • 500 Mbps provisioned to this experiment Projects in Advanced Network Computer Science • Connection UERJ (Rio) to USP (S. Paulo) via GIGA • Connection S. Paulo to Madrid via CLARA • Connection Madrid-EUA via GÉANT Projects in Advanced Network • Using videoconference systems and the high speed backbone to present virtual classes Advanced Network Roadmap • IPv6 • Acquire a /32 block (xxxx:xxxx::/32) • The address plan is already under conclusion • Once ready forward the solicitation to LACNIC • Upon received starts the deployment Roadmap • MPLS – deployment of a MPLS domain within CLARA backbone • Deployment and activation of CLARA-NOC services – management, monitoring tools, trouble tickets, etc. • Security considerations – deployment of a security framework for accessing the network advanced services • Quality of Service (QoS) and Traffic Engineering CLARA Network • CLARA – Cooperación LatinoAmericana de Redes Avanzadas Thank you! • Eriko Porto • [email protected]
