Internet2 Overview
• The UM Internet2 Initiative is an activity sponsored by UM, MOREnet, and the four campuses.
What is MOREnet?
• MOREnet provides Internet connectivity to Missouri's K-12 schools, colleges and universities, libraries, state government and community information networks.
• MOREnet operates as an independent business unit of the University of Missouri System. It is funded by direct state appropriations, agency contracts and customer participation fees.
How does MOREnet effect Internet2?
• MOREnet provides the communications transport facilities between UMR and the The Great Plains Network Gigapop in Kansas city, MO
MOREnet Backbone Topology
Note: This is a 1999 presentation
UMR Connection to MOREnet
• The MOREnet UMR Point of Presence is located in the basement of Parker Hall
• The MOREnet UMR Point of Presence is connected to a Cisco ATM Switch, located in Columbia, Missouri, via a DS3 (45Mb) circuit.
• The MOREnet Internet2 Initiative intends to upgrade this circuit to OC3 (155Mb).
What is The Great Plains Network?
• The Great Plains Network is a consortium of Great Plains states dedicated to supporting research and education through the use of advanced networking technology.
• The Great Plains Network Consortium has constructed a high speed network connecting the educational state networks of seven states.
• The Kansas City and Minneapolis GigaPoPs are two of the 28 total in the United States.

What is Abilene?
• Abilene is an advanced backbone network that connects regional network aggregation points, called gigaPoPs, to support the work of Internet2 Universities as they develop advanced Internet applications.
• Abilene complements other high-performance peer research networks.
Who can Use Abilene?
• Any higher education institution that is an Internet2 member is eligible to use the Abilene backbone network.
• Private and government organizations focused on research and education which are collaborating with Internet2 universities can also connect to Abilene with appropriate authorization from UCAID.
• All of Abilene's expenses are recovered through direct charges to the gigaPoPs and the institutions which it interconnects.
• The University pays $20000 / year Abilene membership fee.

What is UCAID?
• The University Corporation for Advanced Internet Development (UCAID) is a non-profit consortium, led by university members working in partnership with corporate and affiliate members, to provide leadership and direction for advanced networking development.
• UCAID is the formal organization formed to manage the activities and programs of Internet2.
• The University pays $25000 / year to be a Regular Member of UCAID / Internet2.
What is Internet2?
• Internet2 is a consortium being led by over 180 universities working in partnership with industry and government to develop and deploy advanced network applications and technologies, accelerating the creation of tomorrow's Internet.
• Internet2 is recreating the partnership among academia, industry and government that fostered today´s Internet in its infancy.
Primary goals of Internet2
• Create a leading edge network capability for the national research community
• Enable revolutionary Internet applications
• Ensure the rapid transfer of new network services and applications to the broader Internet community

UMR Campus Network
• UMR Campus Network is basically a star, emanating from the core router located in the basement of Parker Hall
• All principle academic buildings are connected to the core router via 1Gb trunks (not research buildings, however)
• All principle academic buildings use switching hardware providing 100Mb to the desktop
• Traffic leaving the UMR campus passes through the UMR Gateway and Firewall Router which connects to the MOREnet UMR Point of Presence via a 100Mb full duplex trunk

Quality of Service
• UMR and MOREnet have jointly implemented a Quality of Service (QOS) framework allowing for the classification of commodity Internet traffic, permitting interim Internet2 traffic flow.
• At the present time, all Internet2 traffic flows on commodity Internet facilities, utilizing QoS classification.
QoS Classification
• QoS classification is done, using IP Type of Service facilities, based on the following characteristics:– Source– Destination– Protocol– Port
• QoS information supplied by the station is not utilized.
QoS architecture
• 7 Critical Network Traffic• 6 Reserved• 5 Low Latency (Interactive video, VoIP)• 4 Reserved• 3 Mission Critical Data• 2 Best Effort (Includes Internet2 Traffic)• 1 Worst Effort (Scavenger, Recreational)• 0 Unmapped (Treated as Best Effort)
Mailing Lists – UMR
• UMR CIS Maintains an Internet2 Distribution List for informational purposes relative Internet2
• Contact Richard Strandberg <rms@umr.edu> to subscribe
Mailing Lists – Internet2
• Internet2 maintains several email lists and their archives– I2-news– I2-info
• There is also a newsgroup offered by the Internet2 Advanced Applications Group
Web Presence
• UMR CIS maintains a web presence relative the Internet2 project
• See http://www.umr.edu/~umri2/
• Provision for description of research activity
Meetings
• UMR CIS intends to conduct occasional information meetings relative Internet2, as required
• Announcement will be made through– Internet2 Distribution List, – UMR CIS Announce list, and – Public Information’s eConnection facility
• We hope to provide some help, but generally speaking, application development and deployment will be the responsibility of the research community.
Potential Applications
• Video Instruction• Access to Remote Computing Facilities• Access to Instrumentation and Laboratories• Real Time Activities• Large File Access & Transfer• Advanced Networking• UM Bioinformatics Center (Proposed)
