Task Team ToR
 To review the matters related to the operation of the RMDCN
 To ensure coordination between all RA-VI Member countries and
other Members connected to the RMDCN
 To maintain close coordination with the TT on WIS Development and
Implementation
 To make proposals for upgrading the capacities of the RMDCN
considering the future implementation and operation of the WIS and
the impact of the future GISCs and DCPCs on the performance of
the network
 To assist the RA-VI Member countries in joining the RMDCN and
implementing their connection

Task Team ToR – con’t
 To liaise with the CBS-OPAG-ISS
– WIS core network is driven by ICG-WIS ! Liaising with ICG-WIS need to
be included in the ToRs : comment from Hiro
• MdA : this cn be done through myslef and through the chairs of OPAG-ISS,
who are both members of the TT
 To prepare in collaboration with ECMWF possible changes in the
RMDCN, including the preparation of a new procurement for the
RMDCN
 To review the TORs of the RMDCN Operation Committee (ROC)
and its membership taking into account the current RMDCN
configuration and its future
 Chaired by M. Dell’Acqua
 1st meeting of the TT 20-21 May 2010 in Prague

RMDCN status
 48 Sites:
– 44 NMCs, ECMWF, EUMETSAT (2), DRS for The Netherlands
– 27 Mission Critical Sites
 All ECMWF Member States now Mission Critical
– Minimum 2 Mbps AL; 1.5 Mbps IP Bandwidth
 New Members in 2009-2010
– IMTN:
• USA
• Australia
– South Korea – supported by UK
– Morocco – ECMWF Co-operating State
 some RA-VI countries have not joined RMDCN, mainly due cost
concerns. This situation is not likely to change in a near future

RMDCN status – con’t
 ECMWF started a pilot project to demonstrate the use of
automatically and dynamically assigned secure internet connections
to provide resilience against RMDCN failure.
– RTH Norrköping acts a backup to ECMWF
 Technical workshop organised by ECMWF In February 2010 on the
RMDCN to review the technologies available in order to start
planning and designing the next generation RMDCN.
– MPLS IP VPN is likely to continue to prevail as the dominant global
network technology for the coming years
