Motivation

• Interconnecting CJK NGN Testbeds and building
  common NGN technology testing infrastructure
• Feasibility testing prior to NGN commercial
  deployment
• Reflection of testing results into corresponding
  standardization activities periodically
• Interoperability testing for Standard-based NGN
  components developed by CJK
• Cooperation with other international NGN related
  testbeds and their activities such as MOONv6,
  Plugtests, GMI, etc.

Testbed Operation Milestone

• Phase I (20052006. 1st Quarter)
• Organize an ad-hoc group to collaborate CJK
  testbed establishment
• Construct CJK NGN testbed
• Establish each administrations NOC and common
  operation and management infrastructure
• Agree on test scenarios and build test case suits
  including a specific milestone
• Cooperate with other international NGN related
  testbeds
• Perform the first set of interoperability test
• Phase II (2006. 2nd Quarter 2007)
• Test NGN Release 1 services and capabilities
• Test focuses on the transport functionalities
  such as QoS, adimission control, traffic
  monitoring, etc.
• Services to be tested are interactive multimedia
  services and related functional components which
  fall into the scope of Release 1
• Especially main interest is in inter-domain/inter-
  operator issues
• Phase III (20082010)
• Test NGN Release II or beyond
• Test includes application/service functionalities
  and its binding with transport functionalities
• Test other advanced NGN services yet to be
  defined
• Test and verify SLA, service convergence
  capabilities, NGN security especially from
  network viewpoint, charging and billing, and
  others

Action Plans for Phase I (20052006. 1st Quarter)

• Organize an ad-hoc group for managing CJK testbed
• Recommend to organize an ad-hoc group internal to
  each administration first before the CJK ad-hoc
  group is formed
• Define Objectives of the CJK interoperability
  tests
• Define Roadmap
• Define Network Architecture (Physical, Transport
  and Service Topologies and underlying
  technologies (e.g., MPLS, etc.)) of the testbed
  both intra- and inter-domain scope
• In Intra-domain case, each administration decides
  its own network (e.g., KOREN or APII in case of
  Korea) and enhance its functionalities to conform
  to NGN
• Define Implementation Agreements for inter-domain
  connectivity
• Define test scenarios and test case suits
• Recruit participants for equipment and services
  at each testbed site
• Construct the test bed
• Do interoperability test for the initial set of
  test cases
• Make a plan for cooperating with other
  international NGN related test events

Proposals

• Establishment of a new testbed among CJK to
  promote mutual efforts to implement, test, deploy
  NGN technologies
• Organize first CJK NGN Interoperability Event
  (CNI2005) during Phase I
• Cooperative reflection of experiences into
  international standard bodies
• Collaboration with other closely related
  international activities
