<strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Best</strong> <strong>Practice</strong><br />
Task Objective<br />
Address key challenges for the European campus networks<br />
Important areas of focus:<br />
– Physical infrastructure<br />
– <strong>Campus</strong> network<br />
– Wireless infrastructure<br />
– IP Telephony <strong>and</strong> SIP<br />
– <strong>and</strong> more…<br />
Network challenges on campus<br />
Challenge NRENs to reinforce their national efforts<br />
The NREN should be a fascilitator that stimulates collaboration<br />
between the ”campus guys” at the university level <strong>and</strong> with the<br />
NREN itself<br />
Get working groups up <strong>and</strong> running<br />
Provide an evolving <strong>and</strong> to-the-point set of best-practice<br />
documents for the community.<br />

Earnest Report on <strong>Campus</strong> Issues<br />
Published January 2008<br />
52 recommendations regarding issues on campus<br />
Very congruent with the <strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Best</strong><br />
<strong>Practice</strong> work plan<br />
Recommendation #12:<br />
“Strengthen the collaboration between<br />
National Research <strong>and</strong> Education Networking<br />
organisations <strong>and</strong> institutions to improve the<br />
deployment of key services”<br />
Better synchronization of national research<br />
networking <strong>and</strong> campus issues is essential for<br />
viable end-to-end services.<br />

work<br />
The requirements are coordinated with<br />
building owners <strong>and</strong> will be used in future<br />
building projects<br />
Existing campus infrastructure is inspected<br />
by Giga<strong>Campus</strong>. Reports/improvement lists<br />
with estimated costs are produced.<br />

<strong>GN3</strong>/<strong>NA3</strong>/<strong>T4</strong> Working Groups<br />
In <strong>GN3</strong> Year 1 a number of national working groups have been setup:<br />
The Czech republic<br />
– IP Telephony<br />
– Network monitoring<br />

The working groups have a leader<br />
Participants from the NREN <strong>and</strong> from the universities<br />
the ”national experts” within the field<br />
Working groups will:<br />
organize workshops <strong>and</strong> meetings on the national level<br />
produce <strong>Best</strong> <strong>Practice</strong> Document (in the local language)<br />

<strong>Best</strong> <strong>Practice</strong> Documents (BPDs)<br />
The process of writing BPDs have started in all countries<br />
The working group drafts a document<br />
A hearing period will result in suggestions to improvements<br />
Finally the BPD will reach status as a national, Higher Education,<br />
approved document.<br />

English Translations<br />
As nationally approved documents mature they will be translated to<br />
English <strong>and</strong> published at the TERENA web site<br />
UNINETT has so far translated 10 BPDs to English<br />
CESNET has (soon) translated 4 documents to English<br />
FUNET <strong>and</strong> AMRES will follow<br />
