TNLC 1 EGEE III

Wednesday 24 Sept 2008, 14:00 → 17:30 Europe/Istanbul

Fevzi Cakmak Hall (EGEE 08 - Istanbul)

First Technical Network Liaison Meeting at EGEE 08 in Istanbul

14:00 → 15:30 TNLC session 1

The Technical Network Liaison Committee meeting has been set up in oder to strengthen the exchange beetween EGEE and the NRENs.

14:00 EGEE-III Network Troubleshooting Tools

SA2 develops network troubleshooting tools are developed in order to facilitate and speed up network problem solving for EGEE clients. Unlike already existing approaches the EGEE-III network troubleshooting solution offers on-demand tests and measurements that can be run in limited time intervals over specific link connections without any permanent background measurements. The implementation is based on a platform independent plugin architecture in connection with a common core perfSONAR interface.

Speaker: Dct Susanne Naegele-Jackson

14:30 GEANT and the grid

GÉANT2 is the pan-European hybrid network serving Europe’s research and education community. It currently connects 30 National Education and Research Networks (NRENs). GEANT2 together with the NRENs enable physicists, astronomers and researchers around the world to share their resources, data, experiences and knowledge. With the aim of providing to end users a seamless connection across the GEANT2 network and the NRNs domains, the GEANT project is working in Multi Domain Operations and Multi Domain Monitoring areas. Multi Domain Operations is focused on delivering, operating and supporting services crossing multiple domains seen as belonging to one "virtual" domain from the end user point of view. Multi Domain Monitoring (perfSONAR, E2EMon) main task is providing a complete cross-domain monitoring infrastructure able to give a global view of the network connectivity and performance and hence helping to support the Multi Domain Operations.
