- NORDUnet - JQ
- Network upgrades
- Preparations have been made for 100G in core
First 100G on "pure" dark fiber will be setup between the two sites in Stockholm as a test after the T4000 upgrade. - There are plans to extending the fiber footprint
- There are plans to do a tender for optical equipment as a framework via Dante
Other NRENs can indicate an interest to participate in the framework - Upgrades from MX80 to MX480 in Amsterdam and London are done
- Surfnet had some problem that made us wait with our upgrades to T4000
We know what the problem was now and it should not affect us, but we are waiting on SURFnet to successfully upgrade their network before upgrading completely to T4000
Stockholm and Copenhagen will be upgraded to T4000 - Telia changing peering policy, the effects of this is that we move the peering from SUNET to NORDUnet.
- MX480 installed in Luleå will make it possible for NORDUnet to peer with Telia in Luleå and also connect CBF with Funet. UNINETT CFB reconnected to Luleå too. There are redundant paths from Luleå (within SUNET) back to Stockholm.
- MX480s deployed in Oslo and Helsinki to allow redundant MPLS connections
- Preparations have been made for 100G in core
- Fibercut in Denmark
Big impact on the IP services we provide.
Connections to Amsterdam and London were affected
Manual traffic engineering, and rerouting of US traffic using transit instead helped mitigate the situation. Transit providers were however also affected with congestion in their networks
A meeting with fiber provider to figure out why the routes were not as redundant as expected will be done. A proposal will then be discussed for a new setup within 8 weeks that will give NORDUnet the expected redundancy. - New NOC manager
Jonny Lundin has been hired as a new NOC manager for NORDUnet.
- Network upgrades
- SUNET - JL
- SUNET DCN network unstable, looking at redesigning the DCN network
- Testing MPLS connections as a compliment to pure IP
- eduroam extension outside campuses almost done, now eduroam is available at Swedish airports, major railway stations and many city hotspots in university cities.

The setup is done using an IP tunnel to controller, back to Radius and DHCP (within SUNET) and onwards to the Internet - New project model developed for SUNET services

- Secondary schools have been connected to RHnet, which gives a lot more customers and connected institutions.
- Funet - TK
- CBF to Luleå completed, BGP sessions setup yesterday.
Not using the connections yet, internal routing changes needs to be done before the third connection is put in use - 100Gb testing between Espo Espoo <-> Olu Oulu and in Helsinki metro network
- CPE routing service is getting more popular
- Internal documentation tools being updated
NORDUnet NI considered, but the evaluation showed to much adaptation needed.
Building a database with datamodelling for services and datacomponents (network inventory).
Goal to have it operational spring next year.
It will also have links to other systems CSC is using.
AP Teemu, send Stefan their datamodel
