IPv6 deployment in Greece

GRNET dual stack IPv6 network




IPv6-only test network since 2002 – 6NET



Connect Athens, Thessaloniki, Patra and Herakleio via ATM PVCs
Validate protocols and routers functionality
IPv6 support in Universities



GRNET2 (Cisco GSR12400) since December 2003 - GRNET1 (Cisco 7500)
since March 2004
Basic networking services, e.g. DNS, and monitoring
Gradual increase of IPv6 traffic towards GEANT, e.g. 52GByte in Feb2005
NTUA, CTI, Aegean Un., AUTH, TEIATH, UoA, TEI Ion., etc.
Address allocation, native connectivity, servers, multicast, etc.
Greek IPv6 Forum

ISPs, Mobile Operators, Telcos, Vendors, Software developers,
Governmental Agencies, etc.
Arlington, May 2005

IPv6 deployment in School Network

Deploy IPv6 services to the
national School Network


dual stack core network +
ADSL access for 150 schools
Plan smooth migration IPv6
– Avoid degradation of
production services, e.g.
email, dialup, web filtering,
etc.

Next steps (1)


Dark fiber spans
contracts under final
negotiation
RFI/RFP published for
transmission &
switching equipment
Arlington, May 2005
7
Next steps (2)

GRNET WAN based on
dark fiber (2Q06)
Arlington, May 2005
8
Next steps (3)


Cover most Greek
cities with Universities
or Research Institutes
using dark fiber
By extending opticalbased GRNET to the
borders, cross-border
fiber is becoming a
feasible solution

SEEREN





Establish a networking environment for
research & education, linking NRENs of
Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria,
FYROM, Greece, Hungary, Romania, SerbiaMontenegro – easing the digital
divide in SE-Europe
Access (2-34 Mbps) to the Pan-European
research network through the major GÉANT
PoPs in the area (Athens, Bucharest)
Bulgaria already connected to GEANT/GN2
Proposal for SEEREN2 has be submitted to
EC
Development, Operation & Management

regulators in various regions in the world
Organise 8 workshops to disseminate IPv6 awareness
Target areas:








Balkan countries (inc. Bulgaria, Rumania, Moldova & Turkey)
Mediterranean countries
Central Asia
Sub-Saharan Africa, South Africa
The Caribbean
Asia-Pacific region
South and Central America
. … and will exchange information with such organisations in India & China
Expertise & material
from 6NET, Euro6IX,
GEANT, NRENs, …
