About RNP
• RNP is Brazil’s NREN (National Research and Education
Network), fully supported by the federal government to
provide advanced network services to the higher education
and research community.
• RNP has operated its own IP network since 1992, and has
continually renewed its technology since then.
• Since 2002, RNP, together with CPqD, the leading telco
R&D centre, has built and operated a wide-area optical
network testbed (Project GIGA), which is now being
directed to Future Internet research and development,
beginnng in 2009.

Experimental network R&D in Brazil
Project GIGA testbed
• Since 2002 RNP, the local NREN, and CPqD, the leading
R&D centre in telecom, have jointly coordinated a largescale experimental R&D initiative in networks and
applications, built around a wide area optical testbed
network in southeast Brazil, with the active participation
of research groups from over 50 research institutions
and local industry.
• In 2009, a second phase of this initiative was begun to
focus more clearly on the future of the Internet, with
support for a “clean-slate” approach
– proposed provision of GENI or FIRE-style testbed with virtualised
resources and programmable network devices
– testbed to be extended using circuits from RNP’s future hybrid
Research Network
Experimental network R&D in Brazil
RNP involvement in testbeds:
pertinent strategic objectives
• testbed as a “pre-deployment” laboratory for future
versions of RNP networks, with planetary scale
experiments (using our international connections) when
appropriate
• FIRE / GENI class testbed for Future Internet
architectures and applications
• Wide involvement of Brazilian R&D groups and open to
collaboration (federation) with similar initiatives in other
countries
– Focus on research and prototype development
– Maintain close links with academic community and local industry
– Participation in planetary-scale experiments

RNP –
Rede Nacional de Ensino e Pesquisa
•
RNP is the Brazilian NREN
– maintained by the Brazilian government (since 1989) to enable network
access to the national research and education community
– provides national (inter-state) and international R&E connectivity for more
than 300 public and private universities and research centers through the
provision of advanced networking infrastructure
• also provides commodity access – one-stop shopping
– promotes the development of advanced networking and applications
•
Since 2000, RNP is managed for the federal government by a nonprofit private company, RNP-OS, legally recognised as an
“Organização Social”, which allows the government to contract its
services without competitive tender.
•
Annual cost of RNP is around US$ 25M (70% telco contracts)

RNP’s service networks
RNP includes the following funded connectivity:
• National backbone network – Rede IPÊ
– 1 PoP (Point of Presence) in each state – usually a federal university
– Link capacity depends on the available telco infrastructure
– Currently from 2 Mbps to 10 Gbps
• Direct intercity connections between state PoP and non-local
federal instituions (education, science and technology)
– Currently from 2 to 155 Mbps (depends on the institution)
• Community-based optical metro networks connected to PoPs
– Currently being built out – 4 out of 27 already in operation
No service charges are made to end user institutions
• Non-federal institutions are normally required to fund their own
access links

Rede IPÊ – national backbone network
Last big reform in 2005 (5th
phase)
Capacity reflects available
telco infrastructure
Currently composed of:
• Multigigabit core network
– 4 PoPs at 10 Gbps, and 6
PoPs at 2.5 Gbps
– IP over lambdas (12.000
km)
• Terrestrial SDH connections
to 15 PoPs
– Most links are 34 Mbps
– Some at 2 Mbps
– Some upgrades in 2007 to
102, 155 and 622 Mbps
• 2 PoPs connected by
satellite at 2 Mbps

Connections to federal institutions located
outside cities with PoPs
•
These include:
– Universities, Technical Colleges, Agrotechnical schools, belonging to the
Ministry of Education
– Research Centres belonging to the Ministry of S&T
•
One of the most interesting cases is INPE – National Institute for Space
Studies
– Activities in Meteorology, Earth Observation, Environment, Space technology,
…
– Main campus in São José dos Campus, SP (155 Mbps to SP)

Community-based
optical metropolitan networks
•
Since 2004, RNP has also concentrated its attention on metropolitan
networks, to provide adequate access to the multigigabit IPÊ network
– Funding provided by Science and Technology ministry, complemented
by contributions from state and city governments and by private R&E
participants
•
These metro networks are based on owned dark fiber networks, shared
between the R&E institutions served
– typically operate at 1 Gbps and permit:
•
•
•
•
•
interconnection of the campi of the participating institutions
access to RNP´s IPÊ network PoP
reduction of current costs
easy to upgrade (e.g. to 10 Gbps) – just replace the terminal equipment
Pilot project: o projeto MetroBel na cidade de Belém do Pará, whose
metropolitan area has a population of 2.2 millions
– network was inaugurated in May 2007

Community metro networks nationally
• By mid 2010, RNP expects to have deployed all 27 of
these networks, reaching all the metropolitan campi of
around 250 R&E institutions countrywide at 1 Gbps
• In most of these the local governments are participating
for internal IT and for connecting schools and hospitals
• This digital empowerment is expected to have
significant consequences for the use of the national and
international networks for scientific collaboration
Adoption of hybrid (packet + circuit) architecture
• Since 2002, the more advanced R&E networks in North
America, Europe and Asia-Pacific have been developing
new forms of administering networks.
• Led by the Netherlands and Canada, these networks
have sought to provide massive bandwidth, using WDM
optical infrastructure, providing simultaneously:
– Packet-switched network, like the present Internet
– Circuit-switched network, for high-bandwidth applications such
as grid computing and interactive HD video, which require
dynamic provisioning
• Such initiatives provide support for international
collaboration through the GLIF (Global Lambda
Integrated Facility)
Hybrid networks in Brazil?
• The main argument for hybrid networks is cost –
they are the cheapest way to deploy really high
capacity networks
• RNP feels it cannot ignore this tendency, without
restricting certain classes of scientific
collaboration.
• The hybrid architecture will be probably not be
adopted everywhere at the same time, but will be
introduced together with higher bandwidth links

• Encourage the expansion of the Collaboration
Network;
• Promote Collaboration Network participation in
national and international e-Science projects;
• Contribute to the discussion and formulation of
public policy for the development of e-Science
and investment in Cyberinfrastructure.
42
General Considerations
• Multiple network domains must be taken into consideration
for end to end quality services
– Both nationally and internationally
– Seamless coordinated inter-operation between academic networks still a
challenge
– A lot of progress being made lately thanks to big pushers / early
adopters
• Astronomy, High Energy Physics Community, Climate, Earth Observation
• Integration between network, data repositories, compute,
storage resources, applications and users is key
– Cross disciplinary engagement
• Need broad strategical planning for partnerships,
collaborations and funding
• Looking forward to increasing collaboration with Colombia
