Proceedings :-
Prof. K. K. Shukla provided a detailed summary of the LAN & Wi-Fi Network installed in IIT-BHU
Hostels. Following are its salient points -
o Phase I of the systematic LAN & Wi-Fi network has been installed within the scheduled
time period by <date>, covering 9 IIT-BHU hostels, viz. Vishwakarma, Vivekananda,
Limbdi, Rajputana, S. C. De, Dhanrajgiri, Morvi, C. V. Raman & Saluja.
o The installation process was undertaken by CISCO Systems, Inc. by placing a repeat
order of the same of IIT Kanpur.
o 2960 1-Gigabit switches and 3960 access points installed.
o The access points are controller based, with the controller situated in Limbdi Hostel.
o The payment for the installation has been done in three steps, 70% at the time of order,
20% after installation and 10% after an initial 10-day testing period, with a late
execution penalty of 1% per week with a 5% bank guarantee of 1 year 2 months.
o The total cost includes that of only the devices, with the LAN Wiring, Power Wiring and
Wi-Fi Controller received as freebies.
o <OEM, NETIP & maintenance point(including WebEx)>
o The devices have CISCO Lifetime Warranty.
A documented report based on the testing of the LAN & Wi-Fi Network conducted by NETIP was
provided by Prof. K. K. Shukla. The performance has been satisfactory within the hostels.
Following issues related to the LAN speed and Wi-Fi range disconnectivity and its probable
causes were discussed -
o The installed switches are of 1 Gb capacity, while the BHU switches are of 100 Mb
capacity. For this reason the switches have been forced to work at 100 Mbps
o The Wi-Fi routers installed work on Clean Air Technology, wherin nearby Access Points
co-ordinate their power and range. The personal Wi-Fi APs installed or created by
students creates interference which causes the installed routers to change the channel
via the Controller and subsequently get disconnected for milli-seconds.
o There has been very poor cooperation from Computer Centre Administration. IIT has
not been provided sufficient IP Addresses. Out of the 24 ports, only 1 port has been
given to IIT, despite a demand of 5 ports.
A project has been initiated with the motive of replacing the old backend infrastructure. This will
be led by Prof. S. Jit, HoD, Dept. of Electronics Engg. An open tender will be released for this
process.
National Knowledge Network Line(NKN) will be incorporated within the new infrastructure.
An informal survey has been conducted by Web management Committee of the Student
Parliament with the help Hostel Executive Councils(HECs) of the 9 hostels, as a feedback of the
Wi-Fi & LAN Network installed, the report of which would be released by 8th Feb, 2016.

Proceedings :-
Prof. S. Jit was a member of the committee which led the work of LAN & Wi-Fi Networking in the 9
hostels. He is currently leading a committee formed with the motive of replacing the current backbone
infrastructure. He discussed the following points and issues related to the Networking-
Based on the feedback of Ph.D. students, Prof. Jit stated that the W-Fi Networking has not been
very successful. The LAN Networking on the other hand has been satisfactory.
o The probable reason is the interference caused due to personal Wi-Fi APs being used by
the residents of the hostels. Saluja Hostel, where no personal routers have been set up,
has very good Wi-Fi connectivity.
o Ping test showed latency results of about 143 ms. For a good network, it should be less
than 1ms. However, upto 10 ms is permissible.
o It was suggested to test the Wi-Fi network during the Intra Semester Holidays as there
would be no interference during that time from the personal routers. Then only a valid
testing result can be obtained.
Prof. Jit has proposed a 2-step solution for the establishment of a separate backbone
infrastructure for IIT-BHU-
o Short-term Solution
Create our own server temporarily, using a 1 Gbps Reliance line from the
Computer Centre and NKN as the backup line. A distribution centre needs to be
set up for using these 2 lines.
One of the problems to deal with this proposed plan is that the distribution
switches currently in use are of 100 Mbps capacity, which form a bottleneck to
the network.
If the distribution switches are replaced now, new ones would have to be
compatible with the current backbone of capacity 10 Gbps and 1 Gbps. Those
would again have to be replaced later, to make them compatible with the 40
Gbps & !0 Gbps proposed backbone of our own. This would not be feasible as
each switch costs around 70 lakhs.
There is also a problem of providing the network to the Mining & Metallurgical
Departments because of their location.
Another issue is the lack of cooperation from the Computer Centre as they are
not allowing anything to use from the server section.
o Long-term Solution
A separate network centre of IIT BHU for the distribution and control of the
network, with suggested name Computing & Information Centre, has been
proposed, keeping in mind the needs of the next 30 years.
There would be a 3-tier network : upto 40Gbps Core Switch Network, 10 Gbps
Distribution Switch Network , and Access Switches.
A ring structure of the network has been proposed, so that in case of any failure
like fibre cut at any location, repair can done easily.
There would be a Maintenance Section, constituting professional Network
Engineers and a pool of staff to address network related issues and also a Web
Team to look after individual maintenance.
There would be complete control of the distribution and use of the network
with IIT BHU. The plan is to have separate control centres for IIT BHU & BHU,
with a common controller for commonly used purposes.
ERNET has been given the tender of doing the networking in all the Central
Institutions, by which the entire network of BHU has to be replaced. However,
ERNET is government controlled and the process may take quite some time and
this process would again give the control of our network to the Computer
Centre. So, it is our attempt to bypass this process and do a separate
networking for IIT BHU as ERNET has refused to do separate networking
according to the Govt. order. This would involve certain technicalities and
cooperation from the BHU administration.
Prof. Jit discussed on some other Networking issues currently being faced-
o Static IPs cannot be issued to students as not enough IPs have been provided by the
Computer Centre. Also one base line has a single IP and we cannot get a global IP.
Besides, static IPs would pose problems with multiple gadgets and their would be IP
conflicts.
o The entire capacity of the current bandwidth is not being utilised because of the 100
Mbps distribution switches. Currently, Proxy 3(10.1.1.19), which works on 1 Gbps line
has been allotted to the students, while Proxy 4(10.1.1.18), which works on NKN Line
has been allotted to faculties and PhD or research scholars. Proxy 3 experiences major
part of the load.
o An additional 1 Gbps line will be added within a month and two new proxies(Proxy 5
and Proxy 8) have been added. However, much improvement in the performance
cannot be expected because of the basic limitation of the Distribution Switches.
o The network life of the current infrastructure was 5 years and it has already been
operational for over 15 years.
Prof. Jit also stated some issues of using NKN Line-
o National Knowledge Network(NKN) Line was started for the purpose of data sharing
between educational institutions. However, the NKN line faces problems of stability. It
is a Government managed network and the repair or maintenance during any fault is
very slow. Hence, the NKN network is unreliable.
o NKN is currently being used by faculty members and in ABLT and shows good
performance. But because of stability issues, it cannot be used in the main network to
provide internet access as its performance cannot be ascertained without any Proof of
Concept.
