APAN Compendium Survey• Date of survey:

Summary of APAN Compendium Survey

The NRENs in APAN mainly connect to universities. In China (CSTNet) and Pakistan (HEC) mainly connect to research institutes. The expected infrastructure differs depending on the area.

Most of the institutions connect at a speed of 1 Gb. They use 2 Mb/s for the research institutes, and primary and secondary schools in many cases even though the connections are not many.

Most of the backbone bandwidth for the network is currently between 5 Gb/s and 10 Gb/s. In 2-year forecast, 10 Gb/s will increase.

KISTI in Korea has distinctively high traffic.9

Summary of APAN Compendium Survey (con.)

Not many institutions answered regarding budget. The average budget is 16.7 million dollars (in 2006). While the most institutions gain income from the government and public bodies, SingAREN and AARNet depend more on clients.

Regarding expenditures, transmission capacity has the largest share, especially in Japan, Korea, Pakistan and Singapore, where it accounts for 70% or more.

Regarding the services, 13 of 15 institutions currently support IPv6. IPv6 is supported mostly for universities and research institutes.

Summary of APAN Compendium Survey (con.)

Regarding other services, only four institutions provide information about Looking Glass on the Web. Three institutions provide information about the security incident response on the Web.

7 of 15 institutions are currently interested in the access for roaming end-users. 6 institutions are looking to develop PKI service, Identity Management Systems., in the future. 5 of 15 institutions are not interested in the billing system at all.
