What is PENS

A joint EUROCONTROL / ANSP led initiative to


provide a common IP based managed network service across
the European region
Provide a efficient support to operational data and potentially
voice communications:
existing services
- new requirements that are emerging from future Air Traffic
Management (ATM) concepts (incl SESAR).
- In line with the SES-2 regulation (e.g. FMTP IR)
PENS contract placed in 2009 with a Telco provider (SITA) via a Call For
Tender Procedure.
PENS will be used in the context of SESAR for the validation of the new
services (VoIP, SWIM etc…)

Conclusions




PENS is already in operation for EUROCONTROL services such as
CFMU and EAD (IPv4 at present).
The PENS ANSP Backbone service is ready for activation to support
ATM traffic (AMHS, FMTP, Surveillance, soon: VoIP (After validation)).
PENS is ready for SESAR verification and validation (SWIM).
Activities related to network security, multicast (IPv4/6), VoIP validation
are on-going in the context of SESAR (P15.2.10).

Recommendations
ACP WGW is invited to:

Note the PENS implementation in EUROPE.

Note the current development activities (VoIP validation, Security, IPv6 global
addressing).

Support the need for a global IP infrastructure in the near future to deploy
forthcoming ATM services: AMHS, SWIM, …

Support the need for a global security policy.

Note that the outcome of the PENS activities may provide input to future versions of
the Doc 9896 (“Manual for the ATN using IPS Standards and Protocols”)

Invite ANC to task ACP for a globalisation of the IP connectivity (G/G), addressing
the security issues to provide a trustable SWIM/AMHS infrastructure.
