What is Pacific Wave?
Pacific Wave is a state-of-the-art international peering
and lambda integrated facility designed to serve
advanced research, education, development, and hightech networks throughout the Pacific Rim and the world.
Goal: enhance networking capabilities by increasing
network efficiency, reducing latency, increasing
throughput, reducing costs and provision point-to-point
lambda services to meet the short and long-term needs
associated with advanced application and network
development and implementation.

Who Operates Pacific Wave?
A joint project of CENIC and Pacific Northwest Gigapop
In collaboration with University of Southern California
and University of Washington

Extensible peering exchange and lambda integrated facility
Nodes (currently) in Seattle and Los Angeles Seattle, connected by a
10GbE wave provisioned over National LambdaRail (2,241 kilometers)
AUP free
Supports IPv4 and IPv6; multicast enabled
Based on Layer 2, Ethernet connections (for layer 3 peering)
Provides 24x7 NOC support.
Priced consistently from node to node
Allows participants to self-select their peering
Allows participants to connect to one-location and access participants at all
Pacific Wave nodes
Supports advance applications
Welcomes any research or development network that can meet the
minimum network configuration requirements (connect with a router;
support BGP; support jumbo-frames)
Support GLIF connectivity as participant in Global International Optical
Exchange development

DISCLAIMER - This network map was a best estimate of expected connectivity for 2005, several changes in
connectivity and planned connectivity have happened since it was created

•
•
•
•
Develop detailed subcontract statements of work with CENIC and PNWG for engineering and
technical support for the project.
Develop a memorandum of understanding with AARnet for use, support and operation of the
links.
Develop agreement with the University of Hawaii for acquisition, location and use of the
equipment to be located in Hawaii.
Procure and put into service equipment to enable the Australia-Hawaii-Seattle link. Estimated
operation within 3 months of award.
Procure and put into service equipment to enable the Australia-Hawaii-Los Osos (California)
link. Estimated operation within 3 months of award.
Procure and put into service equipment and waves from Los Osos to the PacificWave exchange
point in Los Angeles. Estimated operation within 3 months of award.
Work with AARnet and University of Hawaii to enable desired peerings in Seattle including
peering with Abilene.
Work with AARnet and the University of Hawaii to enable desired peerings in Los Angeles,
including peering with Abilene. Reengineer these peerings as needed.
Provide NOC service and interaction with other NOC entities (including AARnet NOC and
Abilene NOC).
Pursue cooperation with TRANSPAC for LA PacificWave PoP
Explore collaboration with Gloriad and work to help them secure appropriate links and Pacific
Wave landing and interconnection.
Both AARnet and PacificWave have extensive measurement capabilities in place. We will work
with the NSF-designated measurement project to provide these measurement as part of the
overall TOPS measurement effort.
Attend and contribute to TOPS meetings; attend Internet2 and APAN meetings (international).

Near term Schedule and Challenges
• Los Osos landing
– Challenges in getting space to implement Los Osos – SLO link
– Testing to see if SX-Transport can go direct to SLO
– Investigating alternate strategies
• Equipping and configuring Northern Link (migration from Procket to
Juniper requires extensive engineering and design). Juniper routers
leverage form other activities not funded from grant.
• Technical and Engineering Design for Southern Link – in a dynamic
technical requirements environment. Meeting with AARnet to
develop objective for Southern Link scheduled for 2005.03.20
• Local connectivity in Hawaii. Need to get better definition of strategy,
depends on availability of funds. Very limited resources available
from this grant.
• Leveraging limited funds to acquire needed equipment and
technical (engineering) support
