9 10What did we learn
- Point to point lambdas are a powerful service
- Current Optical-Electrical-Optical equipment can
allocate sub-lambdas to individual applications - Management is still cumbersome
- Hybrid network architecture seems to be the only
valuable NREN option for the future - Packet switched internet for regular many-to-many
usage - Light Paths for new high speed few-to-few usage
11SURFnet6 overview
- Realization of a next generation hybrid network
with seamless end-to-end communication - Based on SURFnet owned dark fiber, already 3000
km in place - Native IPv4, IPv6 and Lambda Services over a
single transmission infrastructure managed via a
single control plane - Multi-domain networking
- Ethernet services as part of the WANs
- Intelligence of networks and the associated
responsibilities at the edges - Paving the way to a ubiquitous and scalable
Services Grid
