Level 3 provides nationwide and international carrier Ethernet networks and services.
This document discusses Ethernet OAM and lessons learned from interoperability testing. Key points include:
- Standards exist for Ethernet OAM fault and performance management, but differences between IEEE and ITU-T standards prevent full interoperability.
- Testing through the Verizon Interoperability Forum revealed implementation challenges across vendors in areas like naming, link trace, and performance monitoring support.
- Managing OAM across networks is complex due to the need to provision monitoring points and reactions to faults on a service-specific basis across multiple network elements.
- Notifying customers of faults requires supporting either AIS or E-LMI asynchronous status messages depending on customer equipment capabilities.
- Continued development is
The document proposes a solution for scaling LDP-based pseudowire (PW) services across multiple regions. It uses LDP signaling for setting up intra-region PWs and BGP for inter-region stitching and routing. The solution allows PW services to extend across autonomous systems and areas without requiring protocols like BGP on terminating provider edges (T-PEs). Provisioning and signaling are simplified through the use of attachment identifiers and route targets. Existing T-PE capabilities are largely reused through minor extensions to FEC-128/129 signaling over LDP. BGP routing between switching provider edges (S-PEs) avoids a full mesh of LDP sessions to improve scaling as the number of T-
This document discusses using label switched multicast (LSM) for optimized video delivery over MPLS networks. It covers market trends in video, types of video, video delivery architectures, and an overview of label switched multicast using RSVP-TE and mLDP signaling. Examples applications of LSM for video contribution, primary distribution, and enterprise distribution are provided. The document concludes that MPLS networks are increasingly being used for different types of video delivery and that LSM can optimize this delivery through applications tailored to specific video use cases and requirements.
This document discusses automation of next generation networks (NGNs) to deliver multicast services. It covers planning issues for deploying multicast across inter-domain networks, including using path computation elements (PCEs) and hierarchical PCEs. Extensions to RSVP signaling are presented as a solution for point-to-multipoint transport across domains. The use of PCEs can offload complex path computations and consider constraints to efficiently deliver services using multicast trees.
This document discusses how virtualization can provide the foundation for a green IT business case in a data center. It summarizes trends in server and desktop virtualization adoption. It also discusses challenges related to power usage and cooling in data centers. The document then models how virtualization can reduce capital and operational costs through lower hardware, power, and cooling needs. It shows how these savings can provide a strong ROI, especially as virtualization maturity increases. It concludes that virtualization is a key way to reduce energy usage and improve sustainability in a data center.
This document discusses greening data center operations through reducing dedicated resources, infrastructure overhead, and costs while improving security, reliability, and sustainability. It promotes Verne Global's data centers in Iceland, which leverage 100% renewable energy sources, free cooling, and a modular design to deliver efficient, eco-friendly infrastructure as a service to customers. Verne Global aims to establish a healthy balance between IT needs and environmental impact through their sustainable data center solutions.
1) The document proposes an adaptive-mesh grid network of 5 data centers powered by solar, wind, and geothermal sources located around the world to provide continuous network access and data center services.
2) 4 data centers would operate on 6-hour shifts based on their local time zones during peak usage hours, while 1 data center remains always-on.
3) The network uses wavelength division multiplexing on fiber optic rings to dynamically allocate bandwidth between data centers as needed, reducing network capacity costs significantly compared to conventional network designs.
The document discusses a modular cooling solution for data centers as an alternative to traditional CRAC-based cooling. It presents the modular cooling unit design, which uses refrigerant to transfer heat directly from server racks to the building's chilled water system. A case study shows the modular units reduced server temperatures by 14-24 degrees F in a lab without using air conditioning. The modular approach improves efficiency by up to 90%, utilizes space better, and provides a payback period of 3.3 years or less compared to traditional cooling systems.
This document discusses the growing importance of measuring the energy efficiency of networking devices. As data and network traffic increases, the energy and cooling costs associated with powering network infrastructure is becoming a significant operational expense for network operators. Standards organizations have begun developing methods to measure and report the energy consumption and efficiency of networking equipment in order to drive the industry toward more eco-friendly solutions. Ixia has introduced a solution called IxGreen that allows for automated, real-world testing of networking devices' energy efficiency ratings.
The document discusses the growing issue of power management in data centers, noting that energy costs are the fastest growing expense and many data centers will soon run out of power capacity. It explains that while IT infrastructure has become more dynamic, facilities have remained static, creating a large gap between power consumption and delivery. The document argues that in order to address this challenge, CIOs must be given power budgets and power must be measured at the equipment level to incentivize changes and connect power usage to business needs.
This document discusses securing the smart grid through an RSA approach. It begins by introducing Sam Curry, the Chief Technology Officer of RSA, The Security Division of EMC. It then discusses some of the challenges utilities are facing in implementing smart grid technologies, including pressure to roll out new infrastructure quickly. The document outlines how the traditional energy grid lacks communication capabilities and visibility compared to a smart grid. It proposes that RSA can provide solutions for encrypting data, managing keys, controlling access to systems, collecting security information, and managing incidents to help secure the smart grid in an end-to-end manner. Finally, it suggests that EMC has capabilities across the smart grid stack from physical security to consulting that can also help utilities address security
The document discusses the views of a cynic on smart grids. It summarizes that smart grids involve completely redesigning the communications networks that control and deliver electric power to form a resilient network like the Internet. However, there are still many open issues regarding standards, integrating renewable energy, consumer costs and willingness to accept time-of-use pricing, and challenges in home energy management. Overall, while the goals of smart grids are important, the cynic believes there are still major technical, economic and regulatory hurdles to widespread implementation.
The document discusses opportunities for reducing power consumption in broadband networks. It finds that the biggest potential lies in simplifying the access layer, including the home gateway. Functions can be consolidated from the home gateway to the DSLAM or IP Edge to reduce power usage. Standardizing on open IPTV interfaces could also allow eliminating set-top boxes. Overall, rearchitecting networks with a focus on green technologies and intelligence at the Edge provides opportunities for power, capital, and operational savings.

10. Industry observations
―SIP trunking services have been commercially available since 2005, but
only now are enterprises grasping the business case, which can be very
compelling within certain enterprise segments‖
Brian Partridge, Yankee Group analyst
―SIP trunking revenues will be about twice as large a revenue stream as
hosted PBX services by 2012, possibly representing about $10 billion
worth of annual revenue.‖
Frost & Sullivan
―There are some technical hurdles to overcome when deploying SIP trunks,
but most of them were related to the fact that most firewalls and other
traditional security cannot handle the bidirectional nature of voice and
other communications— most of which can be overcome through the
use of a session border controller.‖
