AutoBAHN and the GÉANT BoD Service
AutoBAHN is a provisioning system used in the GÉANT BoD Service
Some NRENs co-offering the GÉANT BoD service use other provisioning systems
The software provisioning circuits is one component of the service along with:
MonitoringMulti-domain technical supportProceduresAAICost-sharing and billingUser outreach and support, etc.

AutoBAHN basics
AutoBAHN allocate network bandwidth to users/applications both immediately and in advance.
3 modules in AutoBAHN: InterDomain Manager (IDM), Domain Manager (DM) and Technology Proxy (TP)
Supported networking equipment:– Equipment working under Bluenet Tool/Ans Tool (Cisco routers
supporting AToM - 760x, 3750, 3500)– Brocade (Foundry) Network NetIron 8000 (EoMPLS)– Juniper MX80, EX4200 (Eth, EoMPLS)– Equipment working with Junos Space (currently used with
Juniper Networks MX Series 3D Universal Routers)– Alcatel MCC 1678 (SDH)– Intune Networks Verisma iVX8000 (OPST - Optical Packet
Switched Transport)– DLink 3450 (Eth)

NSI v2.0 compliance
AutoBAHN, apart from its native protocol, can also handle other BoD protocols.
IDM in AutoBAHN was IDCP compliant and we had a translator to NSI v1.0IDM rewritten so AutoBAHN 3.0 natively supports NSI v2.0 (r117) and no longer supports IDCP
Release date of AutoBAHN 3.0 planned for 17 March 2014Alpha2 was released yesterdayBeta 17 February
Early testing with different NRENsOnly IDM module modified (not DM and TP)

Access to AutoBAHN
Web GUI
API User Access Point (UAP) interface which allows sending of requests, the retrieval of available ports, the retrieval of reservations status, etc. WebGUI uses this method to communicate with IDMsAdministration interface has methods for retrieving logs, services/reservations lists, configuration properties and intradomain topology information. So Administration is needed in addition to UAP for more advanced Client Platforms (for example the BoD Portal uses both interfaces)NSI CS v2.0 interface IDMs communicate via this interface as may other clients/apps

Monitoring
Control plane solutions already working (NagiosPython SOAP client plugin, Nagios Service Check Acceptor (NSCA), Nagios Remote Plugin Executor (NRPE), Icinga)
cMON developed as an extension of PerfSONAR to monitor circuits
cMON works already for static circuitsFor dynamic circuits, it is currently being piloted by HEAnet, GRnet and GÉANT
SNMP traps or polling sent by cMON agents to HQCommunication between cMON and AutoBAHN

Procedures and trouble-shooting
Provisioning of circuits within the framework of the service
Multi-domain Service Desk for troubleshooting and procedures to follow
Still very much ad hoc solutions with other services: need to progress
