History & Background
ARPANet
1987– NSFNet
1990 -- Advanced Network and
Services (ANS)
1994 -- WWW
1994 -- Commercialization
1997 -- Next Generation Internet
Initiative & Internet2
5/5/98
NSFNET
• 1986 56 kb connections for
supercomputing centers
• 1987 NSF Cooperative Agreement
• Merit, IBM, MCI, Michigan partnership
• 1988 T1 in production
• 15% monthly growth
• 1990 T1 link to Europe
• 1990 ANS T3 in production
• 1995 Commercialization
5/5/98
Today’s Internet
Growing at 10 - 15% per month
Capacity lags applications
• The “world wide wait”
• Human interaction awkward
• Internet telephony
• Video conferencing
• Shared authoring
• Distributed large scale computing and data
base efforts impossible
5/5/98
Today’s Internet
Mission-critical applications seldom
pursued on the public Internet
• Authentication
• “Best efforts” not good enough
Intranets and Extranets instead
• Match capacity and demand
• Provide a more secure environment
• Don’t reach the public at large, though!
5/5/98
Barriers to Progress
Providers swamped attempting to
match capacity to demand
No large scale development
environment available
Negative-sum competitive
environment inhibits investment
Advanced applications can’t be
deployed
5/5/98
Advanced Internet
Projects
Next Generation Internet (NGI)
• Focused on:
• Federal mission agency needs
• Maintaining US Internet leadership
Internet2
• Focused on:
• Higher education needs
• Moving the public Internet to the next level
5/5/98
Internet II -- Objectives

Circuit Service Types
• Static Services - Configured by our NOC
– Ethernet or SONET Framed over Lambda - Directly on the
Infinera wave equipment
– SONET Circuits through the Ciena equipment
– Ethernet Framed tagged or untagged circuits under SONET
via GFP
– MPLS L2VPNs
• Dynamic Circuit Service
– Only through the Ciena equipment at the start, eventually
evolving to the full platform
– Create Circuits in seconds for periods of hours to weeks

Cyberinfrastructure Vision:
More Than High-End Computing and Connectivity
• Focused making greater capabilities available
across the science and engineering research
communities
• Allows applications to interoperate across
institutions and disciplines
• Ensures that data and software are preserved
and easily available to all
• Empowers enhanced collaboration over
distance and across disciplines
Report of the National Science Foundation Blue-Ribbon
Advisory Panel on Cyberinfrastructure
Cyberinfrastructure Days
• TeraGrid, Open Science Grid, Internet2 and
EDUCAUSE collaboration
• Assist campuses in their CI planning
• Reach out to early and later-adopting
disciplines
• Gather feedback/insight on services the
national organizations could provide to aid
campuses and discipline communities
Additional Workshops
• Arts & Humanities
• Dynamic Circuit Services
• High-Energy Nuclear Physicists
(Large Hadron Collider)
• IPv6
• Multicast
• Network Performance

Implications of Internet2’s
Experience for the Internet
• Higher education is a leader in Internet
technology innovation and deployment
• College student experiences drive
commercial demand
• Fiber reaching ever-closer to the end
user
• New industries (gaming, home video
creation/sharing) are demand drivers
Next Steps in Network
Development
• Optical and wireless technologies
– New types of transport technologies
– All-optical switching
– 10x leap in bandwidth
– Ubiquitous coverage
• Middleware deployment
• Next generation of Internet protocols (IPv6)
