2. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 Outline Goals for today Agenda Short introduction on current on-going activities

3. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 Goals for today Ideal continuation of our meeting in Amsterdam on Jan 24 Network Support F2F OMB https://www.egi.eu/indico/conferenceTimeTable.py?confId=153 The outcome of the Network Support Proposal task force was presented Proposal were made for the 7 identified Use Cases Today we want to focus on tools and show the progress made Presenting tools for network support made available by volunteering NGIs Monitoring Troubleshooting Present activities carried out at the GEANT level for multi-domain network monitoring PerfSONAR Present EGI activities around IPv6 Gather your feedback / requirements to help planning future work

4. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 Currently On-going activities within EGI Network Support IPv6 survey Consolidation of the network monitoring and troubleshooting tools contributed by NGIs HINTS (FranceGrille/CNRS) NetJobs (IGI/GARR) PerfSONAR Installation DVD (RedIRIS) Liaison with PerfSONAR User Panel CERN, September 6 20114

5. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 Agenda for today HINTS 11:05-11:30 NetJobs 11:30-11:40 PerfSONAR Update 11:40-12:00 Installation DVD IPv6 survey and tools 12:00-12:10 Discussion on 12:10-12:30 Tools for monitoring and troubleshooting IPv6 plans CERN, September 6 20115

6. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 HINTS Tool for on-demand network troubleshooting Provides hints to site admins about the network layer performing tests among sites Based (at the protocol level) on perfSONAR Originally developed (Etienne Duble) by CNRS UREC based on the PerfSONAR- Lite-TSS tool (DFN) for EGEE III SA2 Currently provided and supported by FranceGrille/CNRS

7. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 NetJobs Tool for Network Monitoring between sites based on the usage of Grid Jobs Originally developed by Etienne Duble (CNRS) and Alfredo Pagano (GARR) for EGEE III SA2 Mainly for basic metrics like RTT, n.hops Requires no deployment by the site admins Currently provided and supported by IGI/GARR

8. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 PerfSONAR Widely adopted (USA,EU) web-services based tool for multi-domain network monitoring and troubleshooting Adopted by GN3, NRENs and individual Projects Many NRENs already very familiar with it Getting de-facto standard for multi-domain network monitoring and troubleshooting Recently restructured to improve Usability, Performances CERN, September 6 20118

9. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 IPv6 IPv6 survey is in progress 20 NGIs answered so far Please provide your answer if still missing Key point is whether you have IPv6-only resources to integrate with the infrastructure Many other points which will enlighten us on IPv6-related requirements and needs CERN, September 6 20119
