    • The nodes are configured in a full mesh with link bandwidths of STM-64.
    • The Edge routers in cities are connected to the Core layer either locally through Gigabit Ethernet interfaces or remotely through dual homed STM-16/STM-1 links.

    Messaging Services

    • The messaging services are provided through 5 messaging and associated storage systems that will be set up in 5 cities.
    • Each city is connected through the IP backbone.

    Project 1 Overview

    • Project 1 is an MPLS-based IP network infrastructure that initially covers 71 cities along with associated NMS, PMS, firewall, and caching platforms.
    • The project provides a cost-effective way to enhance customer networking quality by providing a single connection from the customer's office router to a service-provider edge router.

    JTO Phase II Data Network & IT

    • JTO Phase II (DNIT) Version 1.0 was released in Sep 2021 and is for restricted circulation.

    MNG-PAN

    • MNG-PAN (MPLS-Based Next Generation Packet Aggregation Network) incorporates MPLS-TP (MPLS-Transport Profile) technology for transport network of telecom services.
    • It is an advanced packet aggregation network solution designed for efficient multi-service aggregation of voice, video, and data traffic from various access technologies.
    • MNG-PAN collects customer traffic from different access broadband networks (e.g., DSL, FTTH, MSAN, 3G Node B, Wi-Max) and hands it over to the IP-MPLS core network.
    • The equipment supports bridging functionality between MPLS-TP and IP/MPLS domains.

    MNG-PAN Architecture

    • The typical architecture of MNG-PAN consists of PAN-COAU (Packet Aggregation Network – Central Office Aggregation Unit) switch and OC-PAN (Other City Packet Aggregation Network) switch.
    • The PAN ring aggregates traffic from all nodes and hands it over to the upper MNG-PAN ring.
    • The COAU switch of the PAN ring aggregates traffic from all PAN nodes and hands it over to the IP-MPLS core.

    Project 1

    • Project 1 involves deploying an MPLS-based IP network infrastructure covering 71 cities along with associated NMS, PMS, Firewall, and Caching platforms.
    • The initial city-wise categorization of nodes under NIB-II Project 1 is given in Table.

    Limitations of Existing Network

    • The existing network has bottlenecks at the aggregation network layer due to heavy traffic from access network layer (e.g., cascaded DSLAMs, BSNL OLTEs, Third Party OLTEs, RNC Node-B, WiFi hotspots, ILLs, etc.) to aggregation network.
    • Heavy traffic of OCLANs, cascaded OCLANs, and connected access network layer NEs aggregating to RPR also contributes to the bottleneck.

    Why MNG PAN

    • MNG PAN addresses the limitations of the existing network by:
      • Increasing redundancy and capacity of the network
      • Bandwidth up-gradation from 1GE to 10GE or 100GE with more number of uplinks to BNG
      • Rings of access network equipment are also possible
      • Stability in the network
      • Large network area coverage

    Broadband Multiplay Project Components

    • L3PE (MCR / PE Router of NIB-2 Project 1 – Supplied by HCL)
    • BNG – Broadband Network Gateway-Connects Multiplay Network to NIB2 Backbone (Project 1)
    • RPR Tier-1 Switch -Provides connectivity from BNG to RPR Tier-2 Switch
