PRE-DEPLOYMENT KEY LESSONS LEARNED

• All C4I systems must be operationally configured
  and validated prior to deploying
• Establish a New Systems Integration Board that
  formalizes a venue for G3, FID, and G6 entities
  to evaluate the benefits and costs of rapid
  fielding initiatives

20
DEPLOYMENT KEY LESSONS LEARNED

• G6 must have technical control of all C4I systems
  entering a Division network
• All task organized units must be required to
  participate in an intra theater digital exercise
  prior to assuming operational connectivity

21
EXECUTION KEY LESSONS LEARNED

• Brigades have to establish communications and
  electronics shops and assume responsibility for
  DS maintenance of organic C4I systems
• A Division Cable Platoon is essential to
  maintaining C4I networks
• G6 battlefield circulation

22
TOA KEY LESSONS LEARNED

• Metrics of success must be clearly established
  and synchronized between incoming and outgoing
  Headquarters
• Products generated by incoming and outgoing
  division staffs must be proliferated to brigade
  staffs concurrently
• During TOA conferences ensure that PM/ SMEs are
  formally identified to provide support during the
  TOA

23
Where We Are
G6 Training, Readiness and Oversight (TRO) duties
and responsibilities constrained by modularity
Stuck in a legacy state Emerging
Technologies--re-imaging, re-addressing
everywhere we go Active Directory movement
between Forests is not yet possible Supportabilit
y Empowering RSCs and APCs to ensure customer /
network needs are met Resource-constrained
environment spending a lot of money on
acquisition programs like HCLOS, TOCs, and
contractors in general we need to take advantage
of COTS equipment/applications that meet
Commanders needs we need to buy equipment and
applications our Soldiers can learn and operate,
and minimize the number of contractors on the
battlefield Focused on OIF/OEF current
theaters have robust infrastructure (for the most
part) and huge contractor base next theater may
not, so Soldiers must be ready to fight the
network
24
WAY AHEAD

• RESET Equipment
• JNTC (JNN, KU Trailers, SATCOM, STT Trailers,
  HCLOS)
• Validate and Retrain Voice and Data Networks in
  Support of CCP
• COMMEX
• SIGNAL University (JNTC)
• Signal Maintenance/Logistics for BCT(s)
• Build C-E Support at BCT Level (DS capability)
• DIV STB GS (not able to support Depot role)
• SIGNAL PLL

25
WAY AHEAD

• Active Directory
• No blanket accreditation for the Army
• Deployed Forest concept for modularity DOIM not
  allocating IPs for us to use on the garrison
  network
• Video Feeds to Units
• PSDS2 fielded by 3ID
• Growing requirement for Warfighter
• Many unknowns on how it will impact the network
• Control of use determination of who gets the
  feeds
• Expect upgrade to system

26
WAY AHEAD

• Shortage of Techs and Senior Leadership Personnel
• IA
• No Network Configuration Management
• Fielding of systems without testing
• Lack of understanding of Digital Architecture
  and modularity of higher headquarters
• Need theater plan to provide SIPR to IA and
  MiTT TMS

27
WAY AHEAD

• Spectrum Management
• Submission of JSIRs
• Congestion of US, Coalition, and Host Nation
• FBCB2/EPLRS versus WARLOCK-DUKE

28
QUESTIONS?
28
29
Backup Slides
30
DOTLMPF
Doctrine -MUST be incorporated into the
Warfighting manuals killers will not read our
doctrine, so they do not understand Technical
Control (TECHCON) or Telecommunications Service
Orders (TSO) -Must change to reflect modularity
Signal units are force providers we do NOT
own battlespace chop the personnel and assets to
the BCT or Division owning the AO -What is the
Theater Network Commander? CIO/G6 White Paper
says it is the Corps (or Division) G6
Warfighter says there is no Network
Commander -Organizations The MTOE Change
process is too slow (nothing new) Divisions and
BCTs will adjust the organization as part of
mission analysis We cannot focus on the 30 meter
targetOIF and OEF Why are comments solicited
from Corps regarding the organizational
requirements of Divisions? Corps are
unencumbered and for the most part do NOT
understand the modular Division (yet).
31
DOTLMPF
Training If the Signal Corps can synch with the
ARFORGEN, our elements could train with the BCT
they will support (Train As We Fight) This
(training) may be the reason modularity is undone
(long-term) some Commanders understand and own
up to their TRO responsibility, some dont If we
dont capture the needs in Warfighter doctrine,
they (the Commanders) can still choose to listen
to the S6/G6.or not Warfighters want to Train
as We Fight That means Battle Command and
Sustainment tools for use in garrison if the
DOIM doesnt provide themwe will SIPRNET is
required at the Company level Leadership Why do
we not see more of our senior Signal Corps
leaders? We want to see and talk, and show what
the Soldiers are doingbut only so much can be
seen over Breeze or a VTC What do we tell our
junior officers? At 101st, we tell them to do
the best damn job they can.and to do their best
to seek a variety of jobs. They see the G6
having fun.they see some S6s having fun..but
they feel the Board still sees the Company
Commander and S3/XO as the key jobs to lead them
to success. What are we telling the Signal Corps
board representatives? And who are they? Has a
G6 sat a board yet? Will a G6 be selected for
Bde Cmd? Will a S6 be selected for Bn Cmd?
32
DOTLMPF
Materiel We need to take advantage of COTS and
streamline the requirements approval and
procurement process Yes, we know HQDA does not
like us to tell them what we want.but if we
dont, we have an approved ONS that sits for two
() years The Operational Testing requirement
needs to be relooked JNN has been operationally
tested since 2004 and it has succeeded. Save the
money and spend it on something we
need Personnel Dont focus on the 30 meter
target (OIF and OEF) Example we need Cable and
Wire teams, and we MUST maintain our Retrans
teams We need the personnel training and
replacement systems synched with the ARFORGEN
101st has 0 trained FA 53 Officers at the Brigade
level Facilities We need money for physical
security requirements cannot push SIPR without
bars on the windows and intrusion detection
systems
33
How Do We Get to the Objective State?
First, and foremost, come to a consensus on
required resources (personnel, equipment, and
money) The 101st Abn Div (AASLT) personnel
recommendation Current MTOE authorizations
PLUS One GS-12 Info Assurance Manager CND is
critical and must be treated as such continuity
and in-depth experience in support of the
Division and all subordinate units One GS-11 IT
Specialist TCO/IMO to provide continuity for
these garrison-based functions Four GS-9/11
System/Database/Web Administrators Provide a
bridge during military personnel turn-over
provide continuity over time and support to the
Division/Brigade COOP while Soldiers are
deployed maintain the Divisions electronic
staffing mechanisms provide skills the Army does
not train (Database and Web Management) GS-13
Battle Command Integrator/Knowledge Management XO
(4ID model) Serves as the primary Staff officer
for KM and integration/synchronization of
ABCS/Battle Command/Sustainment Systems (works
for G6 on behalf of the CG/G3) The 101st Abn Div
(AASLT) equipment recommendation Battle Command
Common Services (BCCS) fielding as it currently
stands includes Exchange, Portal, and gtgtgtgt BCCS
fielding modified to include NIPRNET core service
requirements (e.g. Tumbleweed, Exchange,
Portal/Collaborative Tools, Storage Area Network
(SAN), Blackberry, etc) these items are not
currently funded/deemed necessary ALL associated
licensing The 101st Abn Div (AASLT) fiscal
recommendation If the above two recommendations
are met, the amount of money spent by the normal
Div G6 will be greatly reduced Estimate
approximately 10M/year to allow for lifecycling
of hardware
34
How Do We Get to the Objective State?
Second, listen to the Warfighters and invest
money where it is needed The 101st Abn Div
(AASLT) fully supports, in line with CG, FORSCOM,
the single-DOIM concept. However, the Division
must be able to operate daily with its core suite
of services on both NIPR and SIPR, and must be
able to extend TS-SCI to brigade-level as a
minimum. Without improving quality of service,
the single DOIM will not succeed. On posts
hosting a Division or Corps, the G6 should serve
as the DOIM (with appropriate staffing) Use
Regional Support Centers/Area Processing Centers
(RSC/APC NIPRNET Email and SIPRNET Email can be
moved to an RSC/APC, but only with the
provisioning of virtual Domain Controllers with
the Division and/or Brigade to allow for local
log-in/authentication and only if the servicing
center understands fully the operational
necessity of connectivity and understands the
priority of effort/users provisioning LNOs from
the Division to the RSC/APC and vice versa may
help. Collaborative tools and portals on both
NIPRNET and SIPRNET must be located forward with
the Division/Brigade due to the latent nature of
satellite communications however, the RSC/APC
can provide a COOP capability for the deployed
force and an access point for the Rear
Detachment/Mission Support Element and Family
Readiness Groups. Battle Command and Sustainment
tools (e.g. ABCS, BCS3, etc) must be located
forward with the Division/Brigade to ensure their
accessibility regardless of status of the
reach-back communications links the RSC/APC can
assist in the engineering of the feeds from
higher to lower, and from garrison to deployed
locations. Improve the infrastructure and
physical security state of ALL DF installations
must be able to provide the services to the
Commanders, but cannot do so without the proper
fiber/WIMax connectivity and bars/locks on the
doors.
35
Issues and Hurdles (To Date)

• For the 101st Abn Div (AASLT) Two DOIMs (Ft
  Campbell and Ft Lee) and a Regional CIO DOIMs
  are NOT decision makers, so any coordination
  effort ends up being lengthy (minimum of 14 days
  has been the norm)
• Documentation Creep Every time we get the
  last document done, another requirement pops up
  or another review is required
• Global Address List (GAL) The CG must be able
  to see the _at_CONUS (and MNC-I, and OEF, and
  others) GAL, and _at_CONUS users must be able to see
  us
• .CSVs are not a viable solution
• Synching with individual DOIMs is not a viable
  solution (too much chance for duplicates)
• A FORSCOM repository for DF units is the best
  solution
• Trusts Although we share concerns, the use of
  Trusts for DF domains is deemed critical (e.g.
  Single Sign-on CG/Cdr COP transiting across the
  AOR)
