Core Avionics Master Plan - NAVAIR - U.S. Navy

Core Avionics Master Plan 2011 Appendix A-2C. Wide Area Networking (WAN).The GIG is defined as: The globally interconnected set of information capabilities,associated processes and personnel for collecting, processing, storing,disseminating, and managing information on demand to warfighters, policy makers,and support personnel. The GIG includes all owned and leased communications andcomputing systems and services, software (including applications), data, securityservices and other associated services necessary to achieve information superiority.It also includes National Security Systems. The GIG supports IP networking inaccordance with the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) established standards.The Defense Information Security Agency (DISA) procures and controls the DISN,which provides the transport infrastructure (teleports, leased lines and commercialsatellites) to enable GIG connectivity. Teleports are shore satellite gateways linkingdeployed forces to the GIG via connectivity to multiple satellite systems. DISA alsomanages the development of infrastructure services referred to as Net CentricEnterprise Services (NCES) that enable user access (portals), content discovery anddelivery, and synchronous collaboration in a service oriented architecture foundation.Further services and additional capabilities are expected to be forthcoming inaccordance with the JROC approved GIG 2.0 Initial Capabilities Document (ICD).1. Current capabilities.The Navy organic shore infrastructure that interfaces Naval forces with theDISN/GIG is made up of Naval Computer and Telecommunications Area MasterStations (NCTAMS), Naval Computer and Telecommunications Stations (NCTS) andNetwork Operations Centers (NOC). PMW 790 manages this infrastructure to providethe Navy WAN. ADNS serves as the tactical WAN, providing the networkinginfrastructure and services for Navy IP network operations. It enables deployed ships,subs and aircraft to interface with the shore infrastructure and connect to the DISN/GIG.ADNS integrates hardware, software RF links and services to provide a mobile WAN.The current version, ADNS increment II, provides the following capabilities:Interconnects multiple security enclaves in a common architectureUtilizes multiple simultaneous RF links for reach back and reach forwardSupports QoS by prioritizing data and implementing priority processingInterfaces to platform LANsSPAWAR PMW-160 manages the ADNS program. PMW-750 is the Air IntegrationOffice responsible for coordinating efforts with NAVAIR platforms. PMW-750 is currentlyworking with NAVAIR program offices to integrate ADNS on E-2C, EP-3E, P3-C, P-8A,MH-60R and BAMS. SPAWAR provides an airborne ADNS package, designatedAN/USQ-144(V)8, as a three-quarter Air Transport Rack (ATR) form factor. Platformsare procuring other routers that must be loaded with an ADNS routing template andtested by SPAWAR for compatibility in order to connect to the ADNS network. ADNSinterfaces to RF links on these platforms including HF-IP (E-2C, P8A), INMARSAT Swift64 (EP-3E), INMARSAT Swift Broadband (P-3C AIP, P-9A, BAMS), WGS (BAMS), andCDL (proof of concept on MH-60R).A-2 Information Exchange 19
