IPv6 in ERNET
• ERNET is running IPv4/IPv6 dual stack
backbone
• Any user in ERNET can be provided IPv6
connectivity

Routing in ERNET
• Each ERNET PoP is connected to one or
more upstream internet service provider e.g.
Reliance, Bharti.
• ERNET PoPs at Delhi , Mumbai, kolkata &
Chennai have peering with NIXI ( Network
Internet Exchnage of India).
• ERNET PoP at C-DAC Mumbai has peering
with European Research Network GEANT.
• Routing information between various PoPs is
exchanged through OSPF.

ERNET- GEANT Connectivity
• To provide direct connection between the two
region to support current & potential cooperative research between two regions.
• Share each others resources.
• Regular IP traffic between ERNET & GEANT

GARUDA NETWORK
• GARUDA is a collaboration of Science researchers
and experimenters on nation wide computational Grid
having hardware and software infrastructure that
provides dependable, consistent, pervasive, and
inexpensive access to high end computational
capabilities.
• GARUDA has a total backbone capacity of 2.4 Gbps.
• It connects a total of 45 institutes in 17 cities across
India.
• 22 Institutes have been connected at 100 Mbps and
23 institutes at 10 Mbps bandwidth.
• GARUDA is being used for applications in the field of
Bio-Informatics, Weather Forecasting, Astronomy,
Earthquake etc.

Summary
 ERNET (Education and Research Network) was the first
dedicated and integrated step towards encouraging and
enabling the research and education community in the country.
• Recently the backbone for ERNET India has been redesigned
as per the requirement for deployment of MPLS (Multi Protocol
Label Switching) in ERNET backbone.
• Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) has been deployed over
ERNET India’s backbone. Deployment of MPLS has enabled
ERNET India to offer its users MPLS VPN services.
• The backbone of ERNET is dual stack. It means ERNET
backbone can support IPv6 & IPv4 traffic simultaneously.
ERNET can provide IPv6 connectivity to its users.
• Internet bandwidth is distributed across the PoPs for
redundancy.
