Integrated Network Management Capability
Abstract
This project is for the development of joint integrated network management tools, and three federated experimental test beds for the development and evaluation of integrated tactical network management and spectrum management. The project is executed jointly by the Navy, Army and Air Force. The plan is to also establish a Joint Network Operations (NETOPS) Integrated Collaborative Working Group for the establishments of standards and joint development in support of all projects in this program. Membership includes the research community from the Navy, Marine Corps, Army and Air Force as well as developers from acquisition programs such as Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T) and Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS). Future plans call for further joint infrastructure test bed development to include DoD PlanetLab as well as joint networking tools in support of NETOPS. The results of this research will transition to future increments of JTRS and WIN-T, and if successful, to the field through a joint integrated tactical NETOPS program. Research efforts include MlabCUNE /Edge Network Visualization and Emulation (ENVE), Tactical Edge Network Integration and Operational Environment Testbed, Joint Network Management Interoperability, Wireless Networking Library (WNL), Network Emulation and Experimentation, and Tactical Edge Wireless Experimentation. Overall goal: Common integrating framework to support interoperability among various aspect of developmental network operations and management to include spectrum management, network management, security management, and information management. Reduce the cost to develop, procure, and support networks through the integration across networks and functions within networks.
