NANOG Meeting Presentation Abstract

Deploying a Greenfield Network using POS and MPLS
Meeting: NANOG16
Date / Time: 1999-05-24 4:15pm - 5:15pm
Room:  
Presenters: Speakers:
Alan Hannan, GlobalCenter.
Abstract: Today\'s ISPs are faced with many choices in growing their network topology and architecture. This presentation outlines issues and considerations when making decisions to deploy a greenfield network. A greenfield network is a term usually describing an original first-generation deployment of a telecommunications network.



Specifically, this presentation will address technology decisions regarding network design and L2 protocol choices. Furthermore, we will discuss traffic engineering and scalability as strong components of a network design. Topics to be covered include:

  1. Designing a network: considering issues such as assets, cost structures, and goals

  2. Deciding between ATM, packet over SONET, and frame relay

  3. Physical deployment challenges

  4. Traffic engineering - transitioning from using IGP metrics to using MPLS constraint based routing and traffic engineering
    disclaimer - we are just now here, we expect to be significantly into deployment by 5/23

  5. Experiences and observations
