SPSU (C-VISTA): Beyond Individual Product Testing, Beyond PowerPoint Slides

Our mission – system test complex solutions spanning multiple technologies & products to accelerate successful customer deployments & new technology adoption

How does the application behave under real-world network conditions?

Congestion, multiple services, load, etc.

What if the product or network “breaks?”

How does network behave under loaded application conditions?

Not all applications behave the same – need the full system to assess network designs

How do the applications behave when running at scale on the same network?

Coronado 2.0 Strategic Positioning

Coronado 2.0 crucial for Cisco’s success in the Wireline Video/IPTV market – specifically adding in new the Scientific Atlanta’s ISDP and CDS TV platforms

New/Strategic platforms or innovations to be tested/verified:“ISDP (incl ISDS) & IP-STB” – SFA Platform

Content Protection/CAS by Widevine & ANT as STB services layer (IPG, etc)

CDS TV platform inclusion with VoD Backoffice (VBO)Includes TTV Openstream –based VoD back office and CDS Video navigator

(MIDAS)

DCM & VQE (VQE-S, VQE-C) devicesDCM for RTP encapsulation, Error Repair for Aggregation Node<>CPE and

RTCP report collection

Carrier Enet ES20 (“Loki/Baldur”) & RSP720 cards added to 7600sBaldur 10 GE ring in all Aggregation Nodes, 7600 LAN cards (67XX) in the

VDC, and Loki 20x1GE cards with hybrid N:1, 1:1 and non-hybrid N:1 mapping in the Aggregation Node

CRS-1 for core IP network

Video Data Center (VDC) design – redundant 7600 or 6500 routers with CAT4K to support high availability of head-end components

Key IPTV market competitors: Alcatel, MSFT, (Juniper, Huawei)

Benefits of Coronado’s full VDC design

Minimize impact of application, device or administrative

configuration failure Maximize availability through highly scalable load

balancing and content switching (remember that 3 Screen

& Web Video, advanced ad-insertion, etc to be added!) Service Availability

VLAN, ACLs & ACE design enables comprehensive

security for network, Video Navigator, XML etc Protects first day against DDOS from subscribers,

protocol attacks, and unauthorized access Provides last line of defense for servers in multi-dept or

silo’d groups sharing the data center/HEService Security

Allow moves/adds/changes to servers/host, video or network infrastructure without affecting service

ACE Provides up to 70% faster deployments or build-outs given high-security, load-balancing requirements

Increases IT productivity w/ Role-Based AdministrationDelegate access rights to each department / silo

Optimal TCO withVirtualized Architecture


Benefits of Coronado’s full VDC design

ACE Sales and Marketing collateral

includes numerous case studies:

Internet Video Publishing (e.g., PureVideo Networks, Inc.),

Telecommunications (e.g., China Netcom Group),

Educational Institutions (e.g., Brandeis University)


Responding to Evolving Beachhead Landscape

Much of current ISDP lab & deployment activity is in T2/T3/WEP accounts with outsourcing

SES Americom / NCC deployments to dominate

No change for Coronado 2; focus remains on build-your-own, larger deployments (many AVC encoders typical) reference architecture for Video Data Center (VDC) in release 2.0

Leveraging our expertise, working with sales teams & AS to recommend VDC options for multiple scenarios – tentative list;

Large: redundant pair 7609-S w/ ACE+L2 switches (4948)

Medium: redundant pair 7606-S w/ ACE+L2 switches (4948) (investigating IOS SLB alternative to ACE for lower-end medium*)

Lab: single 7606-S, ACE as optional upgrade for expanded tests

Outsourced HE, NCC: pair of 4948s w/ 10G uplinks

(*) If this looks like this IOS SLB will work on paper, then asking team for “what if” impact for a side test of this and potentially document in an addendum to the DIG
