Why Internet2?
•The Internet was not designed for:• Millions of users• Terabytes of data• Congestion• Multimedia• Real time interaction• Security
•But, only the Internet can:• Accommodate explosive growth• Enable convergence of information work, mass media, and human collaboration
•Internet2 is focused on the Internet’s potential for our future
January 27, 2003 Slide 3
Mission and Goals• Develop and deploy advanced
network applications and technologies for research and higher education, accelerating the creation of tomorrow’s internet.
• Supporting advanced service efforts such as:• Multicast• IPv6• Measurement• Security
