DESCRIPTION
Western Region R&E Exchange Points – PacificWave exchange points in the Western United States at Seattle, SF Bay Area (Sunnyvale), Los Angeles, Denver, Albuquerque and El Paso – Includes a diverse ring fabric to allow participating networks to interconnect across that fabric with other participants 22 major R&E networks directly connect to the Pacific Wave fabricTRANSCRIPT
Pacific Wave is …• Collaboration of CENIC and PNWGP• 3 metro regions
– Los Angeles, San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle• A “Distributed Exchange”
– Interconnections between participant networks– In Global Lamba Integrated Facility(GLIF) parlance three GOLEs
operated under single domain/operations
• Western Region R&E Exchange Points– PacificWave exchange points in the Western United States at
Seattle, SF Bay Area (Sunnyvale), Los Angeles, Denver, Albuquerque and El Paso
– Includes a diverse ring fabric to allow participating networks to interconnect across that fabric with other participants
• 22 major R&E networks directly connect to the Pacific Wave fabric
CENIC/Pacific Wave NSF Award• Pacific Wave Expansion Supporting SDX &
Experimentation (ACI-1451050, September 2015)– Continued enhancement, upgrade and evolution of Pacific
Wave to support more 100G connections– Additional 100G capacity between exchanges points along West
Coast– SDN/SDX deployment on parallel infrastructure to enable
experimentation while maintaining production use of the Pacific Wave exchange
– Collaboration with other IRNC awardees on SDX development, measurement and monitoring.
