1) Ask experiments about future Tier-N plans and network use (15 minutes each experiment). Scenarios to discuss with associated network "changes" anticipated:
· Full—lots of cpu and disk more than adequate for caching needs, possibly able to support WAN access as well as LAN
· CPU rich—i.e. some disk, but probably only enough to act as a local cache
· Disk rich—if we imagine disk is still seen as hard to manage then maybe some T2s will specialise in this and maybe have less CPU than the average or way more disk. This could also be a configuration for an individual site in a distributed T2.
· Disk poor—lower disk/cpu ratio than the CPU rich site
· Diskless—is this feasible for a standalone T2? For a site that is part of a distributed T2
2) Ask CMS to present on their work with scheduling pilots for I/O (network) intensive work. Have contacted those working on this topic (no one planning to attend yet)
3) Discuss CWP networking topics --- Review and discuss CWP network related items:

o https://docs.google.com/document/d/11C9iCn3FPbvKBJpN0Lwv7tpjFELKPj14_dlkwuTGJqg/edit
Need to discuss with Monitoring and Operations which items to include from Networking. Network Analytics, perfSONAR monitoring and maintenance, Alerting, etc.
