ERNET – Connectivity details
The ERNET backbone is a judicious mix of terrestrial and satellite-based wide area networksInternational connectivity is achieved through gateways at New Delhi, Bombay, Bangalore and Calcutta, with a total capacity of 6.64 MbDaily traffic over ERNET exceeds 20 GB

ERNET - Backbone
8
National QoS Test bedCollaborative effort from C-DAC, IITs & IISc QoS Test bed for experimenting with research ideasOutcomes expected would include• Providing QoS in the Internet• Interplay with non QoS networked
applications• Control and Management of QoS in IP
networks
9
Envisaged ConnectivityCreation of Local test beds connected to the QoS WAN Test bedQoS WAN Test bed will overlay on existing ERNET backboneQoS test bed traffic and regular ERNET traffic logically separated by running them over two separate VPNs
10
Research Areas in the QoS Testbed
Development and deployment of technologies and solutions for distance educationExperiment to provide application QoS by providing priority, RSVP and IntServ architectureNon Co-operative and Co-operative Measurement and CharacterizationIP Telephony applications Protocol support for Mobile Wireless Endpoints
11
Applications Robotic control applicationsDistributed simulation and CAD conferencing Applications end point API support for QoS on IPv6Telemedicine and Real Time guided clinical investigationsDeployment of IPTV, H.323 and SIP based telephony and Content Delivery Network
