	UKERNA case study from Logicalis UK (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		UKERNA (The United Kingdom Education and Research Network Association) manages the operation and development of the JANET network.
		UKERNA is a leading player in the development of network technologies and related applications and works in collaboration with other major network operators and standards bodies across the world such as GEANT and Internet 2.
		The challenge UKERNA faced was to provide broadband access to 200 higher education and more than 600 further education institutions with access to one of the fastest academic networks in the world.

	Circular 3/98: JANET Network charges (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		It follows that UKERNA will not be able to provide information on anything other than the total levels of traffic shifted; there will, for example, be no information on the remote sites from which the traffic was sent, either by network address or DNS name.
		UKERNA is hoping to offer, as an extra-cost option, the provision of invoices which are itemised down to the level of specified address ranges within sites.
		UKERNA will, in consultation with the JISC, pursue outstanding debts in the usual way; and may, in exceptional cases, apply sanctions up to and including disconnection of the JANET service.

		UKERNA is already highly involved with e-science activities and have made clear their wish to support Grid operations upon the SJ4 backbone.
		The total equivalent cost of UKERNA contributed support amounts to £500K over two years, based upon a dedicated use of the testbed equipment for 33% of the time and a total of 0.25 FTE effort p.a.
		Prior to this he worked for UKERNA where latterly he was Operations Manager for the European academic and research backbone network TEN-34, a post contracted by DANTE.

	UK ends 'free' Internet access (July 1998) - News - PhysicsWeb
		In the longer term, both UKERNA and universities are looking to introduce individual charges for all users, including students.
		UKERNA calls the new fees "token charges" and hints that, in the future, different levels of bandwidth speed will be charged at different rates.
		UKERNA hopes to raise between £2.2 and £2.6 million from the charges - about 10 percent of its annual budget.

	UKERNA response to DTI encryption proposals
		My intention is to submit it to the DTI on Wednesday 31st March, to be sure of complying with their consultation period.
		UKERNA manages the operation and development of the JANET and SuperJANET networks, used by the UK Research and Higher Education communities, under a Service Level Agreement from the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) of the UK Higher Education Funding Councils.
		UKERNA is therefore well placed to comment on the cryptography requirements of those communities.

	Final Quarterly Report of the UKERNA Secure Email Project
		UKERNA commissioned a study and report describing the options for improving the security of electronic mail for academic community users in the JANET community.
		We also recommend that UKERNA commission workers to integrate PGP into those mailers which are not quite so amenable but are in widespread use and which existing attempts at integration have demonstrated that it is possible to a large extent.
		The business of the meeting was to introduce the UKERNA Secure Email project to interested parties; to describe the current state of integration of PGP into mail user agents; to ascertain the current level of usage of PGP in the community and to formulate plans for improving the integration of PGP into commonly used MUAs.

		UKERNA in conjunction with the JANET Wireless Advisory Group (WAG) have issued an open call for wireless networking case studies.
		One of the aims of Wireless Advisory Group is to encourage JANET organisations to share their experiences of deploying wireless networks and provide details of any best practice and guidance that can assist the JANET community.
		As IT departments are very busy, UKERNA will make available funds to assist in producing a case study that has been approved by the WAG.

		At that time the formal JANET side was covered by a MAP contract between the University of Aberdeen and UKERNA, and an agreement between the end institutes of the MAN and the University of Aberdeen to look after the network.
		Once the UKERNA Support desk procedures are published, it may be that the support officer can inform them at the close of the working day if there are any such outstanding incidents.
		A support officer will be assigned this task and he or their substitute will ensure that the report is issued, all people required to be informed, contacted and the information filed for monthly analysis.

		He added that UKERNA were less concerned about the speed that the institution was connected, than the amount of traffic it generated.
		JH replied that UKERNA had no problem with this in principle, and stressed that the fewer difficulties any connection created for UKERNA or ULCC the better.
		UKERNA would encourage such cases to be resolved within the local MAN. JH suggested that any ideas or proposals regarding FE connections should be directed to Steven Percival.

	Acceptable UKERNA use and WWW
		In both cases the messages from Bob Day of UKERNA are probably the most significant, along with digested comments from someone at UKERNA (probably Bob, too) in the second message from Ifan Moelwyn Hughes (imh), particularly the comment that "the hosting of Web pages counts as 'use of JANET'".
		The JISC (not UKERNA, we don't have opinions as it's not our job) has a guideline (which hopefully comes out properly in its forthcoming connection policy document) that such use where a university is organising a conference as part of its own teaching or research activities would attract no additional charge.
		I do not believe that it is, or should be, within the remit of UKERNA or JISC to place limits upon how a University may choose to use its own filestore, or to allow its own filestore to be used.

		It was agreed that an item would be added to the list of modifications to the UKERNA SLA that they should keep a list, which would be updated weekly, detailing service point hotspots and network choke points and what remedial actions were being taken.
