The Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California (CENIC) and the Pacific Northwest Gigapop (PNWGP) have agreed to cooperate in a joint project to create, deploy, and operate an advanced, extensible peering facility along the entire Pacific Coast of the U.S. | ||
| The Pacific Wave international peering exchange facility will initially offer connection points in Los Angeles and Seattle, which are proximal to submarine cable landing sites along the coast. A 10 Gig-E service will interconnect the two Pacific Wave nodes.
Plans for the Layer 2, Ethernet-based exchange facility include support for all IP traffic types (IPv4, IPv6, and multicast) and jumbo frames. The Pacific Wave 10 Gig-E facility from Los Angeles to Seattle is expected to be deployed by the summer of 2004. Click here for the complete info. |
