4. 4 NPTF FY ’05 Progress to Date ■ Challenged and reaffirmed NPTF process ■ Refreshed NPTF principles ■ Updated FY ’05 – ’09 planning assumptions ■ Prepared 5 year N&T budget ■ Held 3 summer focus groups and many 1-1 meetings with schools/center computing directors to get customer feedback.

5. 5 Today’s NPTF Agenda ■ Review of FY 2005 – 2009 budget assumptions ■ Setting the Fall agenda

6. 6 NPTF Revised Principles ■ Many Penn investments and operations are dependent upon the viability, accessibility and security of the Network. ISC maintains close alignment with University academic, research and business strategies. ■ Customers and ISC work as partners when making decisions, insuring flexibility to accommodate business needs and changing technologies. Using a continuous process improvement approach, we seek maximum cost- effectiveness and a high degree of customer satisfaction. ■ Customers and ISC are proactive in identifying strategic directions and emerging technologies and encourage the retirement of obsolete services and systems to insure that we remain competitive with our peers and industry.

7. 7 NPTF Revised Principles (Funding Model) ■ The costs are visible for data, voice and video services and their associated components, showing a 5-year view of budgets and planning assumptions. Aggregate service rate increases are targeted at 0-2% maximum yearly, determined in conjunction with the NPTF. ■ The funding model is rational from both a customer and ISC perspective and is measurable in terms that are meaningful to the customer. ■ All operating expenses (business continuity, planning, support, security) are included in the funding model. ■ The funding model is demand-based. ■ The funding model should be simple in order to minimize overhead costs and to allow for ease of budgeting and understanding.

8. 8 Planning Assumptions FY 2005-‘09 ■ 5 year phase-out of allocated monies ($2.317M) to occur from FY2003-07. ■ Telecommunications surplus, operating efficiencies and increased costs to offset allocated cost phase out. ■ Aggregate PennNet, Telecommunications and Video service rate increases projected at 0-2% maximum yearly, determined in conjunction with NPTF. ■ No rate increases for existing Telecommunications and Video services in ’05, except PVN. www.upenn.edu/computing/isc/networking/rates/ www.upenn.edu/computing/isc/networking/rates/ ■ FY2005-09 budget assumes Next Generation PennNet project averages $630K/year. Funding source is Telecommunications surplus. ■ N&T total expense budget increases from $22M in FY ’02 to only $23M in FY ’09, an average increase of about ½% per year. ■ Excellent bandwidth management techniques combined with a good Internet strategy have eased the pressure on developing tiered network connectivity options. However, this will continue to be explored and evaluated as the need/opportunity arises.

9. 9 Planning Assumptions FY 2005-‘09 (Continued) ■ Security concerns are a high priority as various viruses and worms have reduced Penn’s productivity levels. These concerns constituted a significant portion of the FY ‘04 NPTF discussions. ■ ISC provided one-time funding to support these critical security issues in FY ‘04. ■ ISC received supplemental security funding for students from various sources. ■ Wireless is a strategic technology for Penn. ■ ISC provided one-time funding to support centralized wireless authentication. ■ Schools to provide MAC address to PennKey authentication conversion costs. ■ Public wireless and central pool classroom wireless IP addresses subsidized by the central service fee monies. FY ’05 estimate is 500-1000 subsidized IPs. ■ Wireless support costs for TSS are part of the service delivery.

10. 10 Planning Assumptions FY 2005-‘09 (Continued) ■ Separate SLAs for College Houses and GreekNet for maintenance and bandwidth. ■ For FY2005 College House students will continue to be billed indirectly as part of housing fees for baseline PennNet and Penn Video Network services. ■ Building entrance and router equipment are on a four- year replacement cycle. ■ Closet electronics and network servers are on a three- year replacement cycle. ■ N&T will run a fiscally self-sufficient Internet2 GigaPoP (MAGPI). One component of our MAGPI strategy is to help lower Penn’s I2 costs.

11. 11 Planning Assumptions FY 2005-‘09 (Continued) ■ The CSF will subsidize approximately 850 wired, public lab connections that have computers attached in FY2005. ■ The growth rate in IP addresses from the schools/centers is projected to increase by 1000 in FY2005 and 800 per year from FY 2006 – ’09 (ASC). ■ The growth rate in ISC managed wallplates from schools/centers is projected to increase by 600 per year from FY 2005 – ‘09. ■ To retain and recruit appropriate N&T IT staff, 3% compensation has been budgeted to include annual performance increases, equity increases, bonuses, promotions and reclassifications from FY2007 – ‘09. (2% in FY 2005 and FY 2006) ■ In FY2005 a 53% overhead rate was projected to cover costs of benefits, rent, training, computers, telephones, etc. ■ The NOC will not be physically staffed (7x24x365) through FY2009. It will continue to operate from 6 AM – 11 PM, M-F with the rest of the week covered by technical staff on beepers.
