Dear All
Following careful evaluation of the TEIN2 NOC Services tender offers, DANTE is pleased to
announce that it has accepted in principle Tsinghua University's offer to provide the TEIN2
NOC service. A contractual agreement is now being drawn up between DANTE and
Tsinghua University for providing the service, based in Hong Kong, for the duration of the
TEIN2 project, to end December 2007.
As well as directly managing the planned TEIN2 PoPs in Beijing, Hong Kong and
Singapore, Tsinghua University will establish a close operational relationship with APANJP and the Japanese networks providing the Tokyo TEIN2 PoP, and also with other
partners or third parties providing capacity available for use by the TEIN2 project.
While there is much work still to do to finalise the contract and develop the NOC service, this
announcement marks an important step towards establishing the TEIN2 network.

BGP Routing
 Under

the framework of TEIN2
Try to provide the BGP routing as more
flexible as possible to the connected networks

Provide the online access to the routing, traffic
and flow information
BGP Implementation (draft)

Implement BOGON filters

Implement prefix length filtering

Implement authenticated BGP sessions

Implement maximum prefixes

Implement route dampening

Implement route filtering (prefix-list or access-list or/and
filter-list)
 Accept community tag
 Accept MED
 Accept aggregated prefixes, except for the policy based
routing
