UCLPv2 Update

• 3 teams working on UCLPv2
• Entirely based around WSDL and BPEL
• Still big debate on WSRF versus BPEL
• Exploring semantic web (OWL-S MOSM) for mapping
  of web services
• But technologies are still immature
• Have decided to build a data model
• Prototype should be ready in March
• Will work with GMPLS, MPLS, IP tunnels,
  lightpaths
• Focusing on adopting UCLPv2 for GENI
• Herve Guy in partnership with Juniper is building
  web services for routers
• UCLPv2 workshop early March

ROADM network

• Deploying 72 channel 40 Gbe per channel ROADM
  network between Chicago- Detroit- Toronto-Ottawa
  Montreal-Boston-New York
• Cost per channel approximate 10k-40k per year
• Want to encourage collaboration with Optiputer,
  CAL-IT(2), OMNInet, CAVEwave, etc etc
• UCLPv2 will be deployed from day one
• University researchers will have direct access to
  10G/40G wavelengths from their desktop

UCLP Objectives

• Allow institutions to integrate wavelengths and
  fiber from different suppliers and integrate with
  institution's network management domain
• And offer VPNs to users
• Create discipline specific re-configurable IP
  networks
• Multihomed network which bypasses firewalls with
  direct connect to servers and routers
• User controlled traffic engineering
• Active replacement for Sockeye and Route Science
• Alternative to MPLS
• Primary purpose is NOT reservation and leasing of
  wavelength resources
• Primary purpose is NOT switched optical networks
• Primary purpose is NOT end-to-end optical VPNs
• Primary purpose is NOT inter-domain connection of
  lightpaths
