The current communications infrastructure at Yer. Ph. I has been developed beginning from 1994 -1995 and mainly based on 10 Mbps Ethernet technology. Later development 2001 -2002 by using DESY supported old 10 Mbps switches mainly concerned with sufficient enlargement, but actually information backbone itself and its topology remain unchanged. Last development was 2005 - 2006 NATO Networking infrastructure project. In the framework of that project 4 -wire Fiber optic cable are installed between 6 buildings of Yerphi. The new layer-II switches (one per building) were installed. User level network still manly based on 10 MB Hubs and hub-segmented huge network does not allow securely isolate one segment from other one and using VLANs. Even segmentation via routers does not solve the problem inside the segments themselves. For end users in Yer. Ph. I there used Intel based Workstations with Linux and Windows platforms. All computing facilities are included in Yer. Phl's Local Area Network. Yer. Ph. I LAN includes 10 buildings, covering big enough area. Practically all types of services with TCP/IP protocol stack are available for end users. In total Yer. Ph. I computer network consists of over 400 workstations. They are located in 10 buildings At Yerphi and Aragats , Nor-Hamberd Stations (see Site Diagram).

Yer. Ph. I Bandwidth Allocation and Firewall Policies Yer. Ph. I LAN has two outbound channels 12 Mbps through Web LLC and 6 Mbps through National Academy of Science of Armenia. Yer. Ph. I is a RIPE member (AS 12304) and owns 8 x. C class IP address ranges. IP Space is divided in 3 groups. IP Group “Grid” members and policies: GRID Cluster Grid oriented servers and services ALICE, ATLAS Collaboration Workstations Access to ASNET and Educational Network 1000 Mbps Access to Outside Armenia 6 Mbps No session Limits IP Group “Privilege” members and policies: DESY Collaboration servers and Workstations JLAB Collaboration servers and Workstations CRD Servers Access to ASNET and Educational Network 1000 Mbps Access to Outside Armenia 12 Mbps channel trough Web LLC Privilege Level min 70 % max 95% of available bandwidth Limit per session is 1, 6 Mbps IP Group “Workstations” members and policies: Yer.

List of Extra works performed by AANL(Yerphi) Computer Center Staff During 1 -th quarter 2012 JAN, Feb, MAR Video conferencing equipment deployment, configuration, testing. Local Video Conferencing “Open Meeting” server Installation, currently in pre-production testing phase. Vo. IP “Asterisk” server Installation connectivity to Yerphi local telephone PBX for 4 channels, currently in pre-production testing phase. Grid worker nodes RAM and HDD upgrade. Installing on 8 nodes Scientific Linux OS Grid software. Participating to world-wide Wi. Fi roaming access service RADIUS authentication and authorization Server installation and configuration.
