  • Doug Pearson ltdodpears_at_indiana.edugt
  • http//www.transpac.org

2
NOCs
  • Current
  • TransPAC operations/engineering
  • Abilene operations/engineering
  • IU networks operations/engineering
  • Developing
  • STAR TAP operations
  • Eurolink operations

3
Standard Operations Procedures
  • 24x7 operation
  • network monitoring
  • routing maintenance and problem isolation
  • problem reporting and referral
  • escalation
  • testing
  • notification
  • emergency communications
  • service level measurement and reporting
  • record keeping
  • change management
  • security management
  • ongoing training

4
Tools - Current
  • standards, e.g. ping, traceroute, ...
  • MRTG
  • accounts on far-end hosts
  • mping
  • pathchar
  • OC3mon (NLANR system)
  • Surveyor at APAN exchange points

5
Tools - Development
  • management station to be installed at STAR TAP
  • http//www.accumatics.com
  • dual boot
  • Accumatics OC3mon via LS1010 VC snoop
  • custom performance/measurements environment
  • mping, ttcp, pathchar, traceroute server, treno,
    netperf...
  • Linux 5.2, kernel 2.2.9

6
Tools - Development
  • TACACS access control to routers and switches
  • rights controls for NOC, local and peer network
    engineers
  • logs configuration changes

7
Tools - Development
  • configuration management tools
  • archiving of router/switch configurations
  • automated differences report of router/switch
    configurations

8
Tools - Development
  • command proxy for routers and switches
  • web-based mechanism to submit a query to a router
    or switch and view the query results
  • length of request string limited
  • number of queries per device per unit time
    limited
  • limited to only certain commands
  • the mechanism logs into the target device using a
    non-enabled username/password, sets term length
    to zero, executes the command and displays the
    result

9
Tools - Development
  • network traffic/errors map
  • collect SNMP-based stats of utilization and
    interface errors
  • display in gracphical map
  • colors according to utilization
  • errors as a logarithmic scale hash mark, with
    dampened decay
  • time-based playback of graphs

TransPAC Network
  • IPv4, native IPv6 and ATM services based on a
    73Mbps VBR-nrt ATM connection from the APAN Tokyo
    exchange point to the STAR TAP in Chicago.
  • The original 35Mbps service was upgraded to
    73Mbps in March of 1999.
  • Multicast is supported (although some problems)
  • The underlying ATM service is provided by ATT
    and Kokusai Denshin Denwa Co., Ltd.
