Operating an Optical Private Network: the Lessons Learned from LCG

This talk will begin with a brief overview of the LHC-OPN architecture. It will then introduce the concept of a coordination unit, describe the operations of the two coordination units involved with the OPN (the E2ECU and the ENOC), how they interact, the tools they use and the procedures they follow. Finally the talk will conclude with how the solutions adopted for the OPN can be extended to other projects or customers using a similar private network.
