Abstract

This paper proposes an advanced hybrid network architecture and a comprehensive network design of the next-generation science information network, called SINET3. Effectively combining layer-1 switches and IP/MPLS routers, the network provides layer-1 end-to-end circuit services as well as IP and Ethernet services and enables flexible resource allocation in response to service demands. The detailed network design focuses on the tangible achievement of providing a wide range of network services, such as multiple layer services, multiple virtual private network services, advanced qualities of service, and layer-1 bandwidth on demand services. It also covers high-availability capabilities and effective resource assignment in the hybrid network. The cost reduction effect of our network architecture is also shown in this paper.
