The CC*DNI project expands Boise State University's research network by establishing two Science DMZs connected to the Idaho Regional Optical Network (IRON). The Science DMZs are located on the edge of the University network and at the Idaho Computing Consortium site, hosted at the Idaho National Laboratory Supercomputing Center. Utilizing Software Defined Networks (SDN), OpenFlow Switches and an OpenFlow Controller, Boise State enables IRON to switch data traffic at a high throughput rate between researchers at the University and the High Performance Computing (HPC) equipment at the National Laboratory. This enhanced regional research network provides a fast, extremely secure and dynamic network environment for the larger data sets our researchers are analyzing with parallel computing using University, National Science Foundation and Department of Energy assets.Utilizing the monitoring software perfSONAR framework throughout the regional optical network allows constant monitoring of throughput, performance and latency issues. Improving the control, speed and ease of transferring large data sets is imperative to advancing Boise State research as the scope and volume of data increases and as the University increasingly relies on distributed and national Cyberinfrastructure assets. The SDN switches and controller allow high transport speed across the regional optical network that is normally slower due to the latency of routed traffic. Reliable high speed data traffic is the infrastructure that researchers expect as they expand large scale data intensive scientific research. This project enhances the high performance computing throughout the Idaho research community, the Rocky Mountain Advanced Computer Consortium and XSEDE.

CC*DNI项目通过建立与爱达荷州地区光学网络（IRON）相关的两种科学DMZ来扩展博伊西州立大学的研究网络。科学DMZ位于大学网络边缘和爱达荷州国家实验室超级计算中心主持的爱达荷州计算联盟。 Boise State利用软件定义的网络（SDN），OpenFlow开关和OpenFlow控制器，使Iron能够以大学研究人员与高性能计算（HPC）设备之间的高吞吐率切换数据流量。这个增强的区域研究网络为较大的数据集提供了一个快速，非常安全和动态的网络环境，我们的研究人员正在使用大学，国家科学基金会和能源资产部通过平行计算进行分析。利用整个区域光学网络的监视软件Perfsonar框架允许不断监视吞吐量，性能和延迟问题。随着数据的范围和数量的增加，并且随着大学越来越依赖分布式和国家网络基础设施资产，提高博伊西国家研究的控制，速度和易于传输大型数据集必须是必不可少的。 SDN开关和控制器允许由于路由流量的延迟而跨区域光网络的高运输速度。可靠的高速数据流量是研究人员在扩大大规模数据密集科学研究时所期望的基础架构。该项目增强了整个爱达荷州研究社区，落基山高级计算机联盟和XSede的高性能计算。
