ECI Elastic MPLS for Critical Infrastructure Networks

1. Elastic MPLS For Critical Infrastructure Networks

2. Agenda Dynamic IP environment Market drivers MPLS-TP highlights Elastic Approach

3. Changing Business Environment Global IP traffic will increase nearly threefold over the next 5 years Scalable, reliable extension of the Enterprise E-LINE, E-LAN, IP-VPNs , Storage, Cloud 3play services HSI for OTT Services VoIP IPTV / VOD Broadband-enabled mobile 4G LTE Advanced HSPA EUTRAN,5G High Speed Internet PSTN 3G, UMTS, GPRS Private Lines Point - to-point Data Increased demand for packet-based bandwidth Business Residentia l Mobile Shift from Circuit-Based to Packet-Based Networks Convergence/ Consolidation Operational simplicity and automation Network Flexibility/Agility Open networks Service providers Data centers Utilities Network modernization Global Services Cloud computing Cyber Security SDN NFV

4. Security and Safety Signaling and control automation Video surveillance Site Security & Staff Safety Cyber security Smart Grid - IoT Improved Customer Experience - Cx From Energy Highway to Energy Cloud Distributed Power Management – Real-Time Smart Metering and IoT access devices Aging Networks vs Energy Consumption Growth End of life of SDH/TDM vs network expansion and population growth High maintenance costs – Long distance Pipelines Enhanced E2E control and inefficient handling of new services Regulation Improve service availability Compliance to standards Environmental-safety Strict Safety Regulation DRIVERS FOR MODERNIZATION

5. MPLS-TP INTEROPERABLE TRANSPORT GRADE MPLS Common – Packet forwarding Added – Transport like OAM, protection, operation Discarded – Features that hurt deterministic performance or that are not connection oriented Subset and extension of IP/MPLS to meet transport requirements

6. MPLS-TP IP/MPLS COMMON ADDED DISCARDED MPLS-TP Protection & Resiliency Sub 50ms protection switch for any topology OAM In band OAM channel Proactive transport grade OAM IP/MPLS Control Plane Optional NMS static control Separated from data Data Plane Bidirectional LSPs No LSP merging, ECMP or PHP Main differences

7. protection EC I T eleco m Proprietar y an d Confidential 7 EC I Proprietar y 7 IP/MPLS – No Carrier Grade Protection - Cannot guarantee sub-50 millisecond convergence with LDP. FRR require to add RSVP-TE which isn’t scalable in large networks. MPLS-TP – guaranteed sub-50 msec switched to protection through HW based proactive OAM and static FRR provisioning Importance Guaranteed sub-50 msec carrier grade switch to protection: FRR, 1:1, 1+1, 1:n, linear, ring 1 + 1 1 : 1 1 : n

8. What to use? IP/MPLS and MPLS-TP are complementary technologies fitting better different network domains IP/MPLS dynamic powerful routing addresses better the core of the network L3 and IT-oriented, less-critical traffic – routing / reachability MPLS-TP predictable and deterministic performance and high resiliency, fits better the edge, aggregation and access parts of the networks. L2, mission-critical applications, Pseudowire traffic (legacy is here to stay!) Deterministic behavior, embedded traffic engineering

9. Elastic MPLS – The best of both worlds Signaling GW (SGW) – Used to tie PW segments together into a single connection (stitching) at a given point A single platform located at the border of two network domains E2E L2 & L3 VPN Ethernet PWE PWE IP/MPLS LSP PWE Ethernet MPLS-TP LSP PWE SGW enables LSP and service stitching, interaction between the data planes, and E2E OAM. The two domains may both be: Static Dynamic One static and one Dynamic

10. L2 & L3 VPNs using E2E IP/MPLS –Virtualization/Slicing Service-Aware & Multi-Tenant Environment L2 & L3 VPNs using MPLS-TP in parts of the metro or in its entirety Featuring : Streamlined provisioning, QoS and OAM with seamless Metro – Core interworking VPNs optimized for different performance and cost profiles Elastic slicing – service awareness E2E L2 & L3 VPN Ethernet PWE PWE IP/MPLS LSP PWE Ethernet MPLS-TP LSP PWE Video Surveillance IP/MPLS LSP Business Services IP/MPLS LSP MPLS-TP LSP Ethernet PWE Legacy SCADA Ethernet Legacy PWE MPLS-TP LSP
