Abstract

Abstract—Requirements to a modern computer network of a research organization, in particular, to the local-area network of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SAO RAS) are described. The choice of the direction of the development of primary tools for supporting the observing process and based on local network infrastructure services of SAO RAS is defined. This will make it easier to automate the administration of the network, prevent the effect of human factor on its reliability, and facilitate its maintenance. The low-rank structure of the network based on high-performance Ethernet commutators is justified. The viability of the use of the sixths-series IPv6 protocols instead of or in addition to IPv4 protocols for mostly unmanned network administration minimizing errors of manual mode. An evolution of a multiplatform network using promising IPv6-supported technologies ensuring implementation of a practically self-tuning configuration. The methods of a client-server implementation of the main network services of the observatory are described.
