Production quality high speed networks connecting end devices are needed to design and prototype new types of distributed applications. The eaviv testbed has been deployed to provide such a facility, connecting Louisiana State University, National Center for Supercomputing Applications and Masaryk University, and enabling services for dynamic provisioning of dedicated bandwidth via Internet2 ION. This paper includes technical challenges and solutions in deploying eaviv such as dealing with multiple administrative domains, network addressing, and end-to-end connectivity. These issues apply not only to temporary testbeds, but also to networks which facilitate long-running experiments and research and whose infrastructure is global and at least partially dynamic.

“…Note that individual domains typically employ a NRM to setup dynamic lightpaths between network elements within its purview. Examples of NRMs include Nortel DRAC [3], Phosphorous Harmony [4], ENL NRM [5], and DICE IDC [6]. Since these technologies have been developed independently of each other, several efforts are currently underway to enable interoperability between these NRMs.…”

A new framework for GLIF Interdomain Resource Reservation Architecture (GIRRA)

Many existing and emerging Scientific highend applications (E-science) require end-to-end circuits interconnecting Grid resources for large data transfers. A few advanced networks, mainly National Research and Education Networks (NRENs), such as Surfnet, National Lambda Rail and Internet 2, now provide mechanisms for end-users to reserve and provision lightpaths via middleware referred to as Network Resource Mangers (NRMs). Although, some progress has been made in automated intra-domain lightpath services, inter-domain lightpath provisioning still requires manual intervention and presents several key challenges such as scalability of topology information exchanged, consistency and scalability of information model, security of access to the resources, hybrid networking and multi-layer lightpaths, and accounting and billing. In this paper, we describe a new architectural framework called Global Lambda Integrated Facility (GLIF) Interdomain Resource Reservation Architecture (GIRRA) with the goal to provide an integrated response to these challenges. We propose a new approach to model GLIF network domains and GOLEs as virtual switches and to describe their behavior, functionality, policy capabilities, and topology aggregation. We define an inter-domain path computation model to determine paths that meet constraints and access policy restrictions. We propose a security framework for authentication and authorization of users and a model for accounting and billing that aims to provide easy and secure access to the resources. Key aspects of the GIRRA solution are that it focuses on the inter-dependence between different challenges of interdomain path provision, and it is built around already existing solutions for intra-domain resource provisioning.

“…Consequently, the advance bandwidth reservation (ABR) or the bandwidth-on-demand (BoD) service was developed and it is provided by many future Internet testbeds (JGN-X [1]), education networks (Internet2, the Japanese Science Information Networks (SINET), and the Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) [2]), and commercial operators (AT&T and Verizon). Many ABR frameworks, architectures, and software suits have been developed and utilized: On-demand Secure Circuits and Advance Reservation System (OSCARS) [3] (Layer (L) 2 and L3), EnLIGTended [4] (L1), G-Lamda [5] (L1 and L2), and PHOSPHORUS [6] (L1 and L3).…”

Dynamic circuit network (DCN) is one of the technologies in the Future Internet and it has been utilized in many world-wide testbeds. DCN provides the on-demand virtual circuit (VC) service in which the user gives requirements, including the source, the destination, an amount of bandwidth, and the start and end times, to the DCN system through the Web page and the system automatically sets up and tears down the end-to-end connection according to the user's request. The user is notified of the status of a reservation (accepted or rejected) on his/her Web browser. Instead of sending the rejection notification when there is insufficient bandwidth, our proposed scheduling scheme, called dynamic time scheduling (DTS), displays available transmission periods on the user's Web browser and the user can select one of choices. The performances of DTS are presented by simulation results. Index Terms-dynamic circuit network (DCN), bandwidth on demand (BoD), reservation scheduling
