Minneapolis, MN – 12 February 2007
CANARIE Canada’s Advanced Networking Organization
Legal status: Not-for-profit, public-private partnership Incorporated 199318 member Board: half industry, half institutionalInstitutional Bd. members include 3 VPRs, 1 Dean and 1 CIO
Mandate: Core is a blend of R&E network management and next-generation internet project
From 1993-2004 also managed numerous application development programs
Funding: Funded by the Federal GovernmentCurrent round of funding for CAnet 4 was $126 million, incl. interest Period covered: April 1, 2002 - March 31, 2007 CANARIE funding renewal proposal submitted to Government: outlook
is good however no announcements yet
Fees: No user fees for domestic users $2,500 annual institutional membership fees in CANARIE Inc.Marginal cost recovery charges to international users
CAnet 4 infrastructure
> infrastructure, rather than a network> designed to support many independent IP
networks/platforms and enable Users to manipulate network elements through software abstraction
> consists of OC-192 wavelengths leased from carriers and terminated on CANARIE SONET switches
> hybrid service offering; majority of capacity for LightPaths> 2 new ROADM network projects w/ objectives:
– meet continuing growing 10G demand of large-scale e-science– enable deployment of 10G to the desktop through partnership and
DWDM interconnect with ORANs and their members in BC, Alberta, Ontario and Québec
– co-management of the optical infrastructure
Eastern ROADM Networks
> 2000+ km of fibers, 34 active sites– 20Y IRU from Level3 (through FiberCo)– 14Y IRU from TELUS
> Chicago – Windsor/Detroit – Toronto – Ottawa – Montréal – Boston – New York
> In partnership with ORANO– Windsor / Detroit – Ottawa portion will be co-managed
> Will interconnect with new CANARIE-funded RISQ ROADM network
> Interconnection with Internet2 Meriton ROADM network in Detroit and sharing of racks between Ann Arbour and Chicago
Eastern ROADM
Western ROADM
> 1500 km of fibers, 22 sites– 12Y IRU from Bell Canada
> Seattle – Victoria – Vancouver – Kamloops – Kelowna – Calgary
> In partnership with BCNET and NETERA– to be co-managed

ROADM site detail
Nortel CPL/eROADM
> 72 lambda (C-band 50 GHz) DWDM transport platform> supports 10 GbE/OC-192; will support 40G without
hardware overhaul> Self-optimizing electronic dispersion compensation> automatic dynamic power balancing> network planning, engineering, configuration and
deployment are simplified and automated> Modular architecture that scales incrementally> Management on a per wavelength granularity
What is UCLP?
> CANARIE program, 3 development proposals funded: CRC-Inocybe-i2CAT-Ud'O, UQAM-Ud'O, Solana Networks
> User Controlled LightPaths – a network virtualization and management tool built using web services.
> Resources can be grouped and given to dedicated individuals or organizations creating Articulated Private Networks (APN).
> Via the service interface, APN owner can establish cross-connections, change bandwidth or lease their resources.
> Uses Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and so network can be integrated with other web service applications

CAnet 4 services
> offerings: layer 1, layer 3, and UCLP– L1: sub-rate and 1 GbE, and 10GbE LightPaths (over OC-12c,
OC-24c, and OC-192c) to Users– L3: 1 GbE connections to ORAN Users mainly– UCLP: web service workflow based software provisioning tool
which permits Users to provision and re-engineer LightPaths at will, to create and manipulate their own Articulated Private Networks
> service policy: best efforts– regular business hour NOC (Ottawa time)– 7/24/365 duty engineer available by pager– 4 hour response from carriers– NBD parts replacement in case of infrastructure failure– is up to the User to design redundancy as required, e.g. obtain 2
diverse LightPaths
CAnet 4 services coming soon
> hybrid infrastructure– a mix of ROADM/fibre and carrier OC-192 wavelengths
> services– lambda: 10GbE and OC-192– L1: GbE and 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, and 10GbE over LAN Phy port and
VCAT (over one or two diverse paths using VCAT+LCAS)– L3: possible 10GbE router upgrade in 2008-2009?– UCLP expanded to support private (virtual) L3 routing services
> network innovation:– web services of large-scale instruments and any scale sensors– working with Cdn industry to advance adoption of SOA
technologies
Global Lambda Integrated Facility (GLIF)
international exchange points
> GLIF founding participant and GLORIAD partner> GLIF Open LightPath Exchange (GOLE) model
– - facilitate international interconnections– - minimize quantity of colo, equipment and cards required– - minimize call blocking probability at optical exchange points
> CANARIE: GOLE Operator– in Chicago (StarLight), co-managed with StarLight– in Seattle, co-managed with PNWGP
• User can call CANARIE, local partner, or use UCLP
> CANARIE: GOLE User– CAnet 4 NYC-Amsterdam OC-192 terminates on Internet2 MAN
LAN, and SURFnet NetherLight GOLEs
CANARIE’s Direction: Towards the Lambda Grid
Some Current Projects> ATLAS Canada
– Support of Gridx1 and provision of 10 Gbps lightpath to CERN> Canadian Virtual Observatory
– DB2 Integrated Cluster Environment at Herzberg Institute in Victoria.> Neptune Canada
– Integrated instruments, databases, visualization> Canadian Light Source
– Instruments and lightpaths as grid services> WestGrid
– SMP at UofA, Cluster at UBC and Storage at SFU.> Eucalyptus
– Carleton U Architectural Collaborative Design> McGill Neurological Brain Scan Database
– In partnership with UCSD
> CINEGRID
– Ryerson U
> Environment Canada ECOnet
> NRC NRnet II
