TUTORIAL & SEMINAR | TUESDAY 17 MARCH 2015

08.00   WELCOME, REGISTRATION AND COFFEE
     
   
MORNING SESSION
    PRESENTED BY BROADBAND FORUM AMBASSADORS
     
    Diane Patton, Cisco
Gert Grammel, Juniper Networks
Manuel Paul, Deutsche Telekom
Konstantinos Samdanis, NEC
     
    Building Converged IP and Optical Transport Networks
    Service providers need a transport infrastructure that is optimized for IP and packet services. The Broadband Forum is standardizing on an architecture to support this new era with a paradigm shift. The architecture uses ITU-T SG 15 and IETF standards along with various advances in the technology. It supports interoperability between different vendors and all modes of operation. By combining IP and Optical (DWDM) interfaces, service providers can build a robust metro and long haul network delivering a variety of services while reducing CapEx and OpEx.
     
    Reducing Operating Costs through Energy Efficient Mobile Backhaul
    The Broadband Forum Mobile Backhaul architecture facilitates unified Mobile Backhaul supporting different radio technologies (2G/UMTS/HSDPA/LTE) via the use of IP/MPLS and overlay networks, transport equipment and interfaces of various technologies. Such an architecture can efficiently handle the challenge of progressive network infrastructure deployments using different radio and transport technologies, while it is inherently energy efficient since fewer network nodes and communication links are needed.
     
09.00   Building Converged IP and Optical Transport Networks - First part
   
  • Introduction to IP and DWDM Integration
  • Market Drivers
  • Integration in the Metro
  • Technology Overview
  • Overall IP and DWDM Architecture
10.00   COFFEE BREAK
     
10.30   Building Converged IP and Optical Transport Networks - Second part
   
  • Common Management and Control plane
  • Integrated Models
  • Separated Model
  • Integration Standards
  • Integration Use Cases
  • Summary
11.30   Energy Efficiency in the Mobile Backhaul Network
   
  • Network Design focusing on the BBF Mobile Backhaul architecture.
  • Energy Efficiency Mechanisms, considering Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), ITU-T G-PON, Power over Ethernet (PoE) and Link Aggregation (LAG) and their applicability on BBF Mobile Backhaul.
  • OAM and Management including related standards work at IETF, ETSI and ATIS.
  • Evolving technologies considering ONF SDN solutions, ETSI Green Abstraction Layer (GAL), EEE for higher speed links, IETF routing and transport.
  • The applicability of energy efficiency at different levels of a network considering:
    • Device-level: load-adaptive and power-adjustable components
    • Equipment-level: through low-power states and dynamic adaptation of operational parameters (sleep mode control); e.g. mechanisms for such an equipment-level sleep mode control are Energy Efficient Ethernet and GPON power saving modes.
    • Network-level: resource consolidation, energy consumption-based routing/traffic engineering

AFTERNOON Session
     
    PRESENTED BY MEF AMBASSADORS
     
    The Third Network - SDN, NFV, and LSO Seminar features new MEF work on the implementation of SDN and NFV together with Lifecycle Service Orchestration (LSO) to accelerate the implementation of agile and dynamic carrier services and improve operational efficiency of the world's most popular business services in the context of the Third Network.
     
14.00   Welcome
    Introducing the Third Network and the new interdependence of SDN, NFV and LSO

Johan Witters, Alcatel-Lucent
     
14.05   The Third Network: SDN, NFV, and LSO
    An overview of the MEF's emerging Lifecycle Service Orchestration (LSO) as the third pillar, together with SDN and NFV, of the Third Network.

Isabelle Morency, Veryx
     
14.35   Using LSO, SDN and NFV to enhance Carrier Ethernet Services
    A detailed review of the MEF LSO Reference Model including the underlying information models and APIs of LSO, SDN and NFV and the importance and challenges in aligning them.

Abel Tong, Cyan
     
15.05   Using LSO, SDN and NFV to enhance Carrier Ethernet Services
    Illustrations of the use of LSO, SDN and NFV to enhance CE 2.0 services and future looking Third Network services, and the use of their capabilities to maximize the automation of different aspects of the service lifecycles. In addition, Service Orchestration capabilities for Wholesale services, specifically in the context of Product Catalogs, Product Ordering, Service Configuration, Service Activation Testing and Service Delivery.

John Hawkins, Ciena
     
15.35   COFFEE BREAK
     
16.05   Service Provider Panel: Ethernet Services Migration to LSO, SDN and NFV
    A service provider panel discussing strategies for the migration of Ethernet services delivery from current network architectures and existing BSS/OSS solutions to take advantage of the benefits of LSO, SDN and NFV in the short to mid term, and in preparation for Third Networks services in the longer term.

Moderator:
Carsten Rossenhoevel, EANTC

Panelists:
Divesh Gupta, PCCW GLOBAL
Youcef Ayad, TELIASONERA
Jamy Rousseau, SFR
Matthias Homann, COLT
     
16.35   Panel: The New Generation of Stakeholders in the LSO-SDN-NFV Era
    Industry standards organizations and associations, Open Source organizations, service providers, equipment manufacturers, technology solution developers - all these stakeholders and more need to collaborate ever more closely in order to realize the vision of agile, assured and orchestrated networks. This wrap up session reviews the classes of stakeholders involved in this work, and proposes how collaboration will drive the industry forward in this LSO-SDN-NFV era.

Moderator:
Rami Yaron, MEF

Panelists:
Marc Cohn,

Tom Nadeau, OPNFV
Manuel Paul, Broadband Forum
     
17.05   Inter-Operator connectivity for end-to-end dynamic service
    Creating a dynamic service through multiple network using MEF ENNI - Survey & First Panel

Rami Yaron, Telco Systems
     
17.35   Panel: APIs for Orchestration and Automation
    APIs are the key to the long term goal of automation and rich end-to-end connectivity service capabilities. This panel reviews how to identify which APIs are required, defining API requirements through inter-body collaboration and the evolving OpenSource environment that is required to develop APIs in a way suited to today's industry expectations.
