GN3 Green Networking: Advances in Environmental Policy and Practice

Increasing the energy efficiency and the sustainable growth of our world is a global process where Telecommunications technologies (and the ICTs in general) play a key role.

But to obtain optimum results the process should involve the two faces of the same coin:

Green ICT reducing the carbon footprint of ICT

ICT for Green using ICT for reducing third party-wastes.

ECONET is dealing with the first aspect

Focused on short and medium time exploitation

GN3 Green Networking: Advances in Environmental Policy and Practice

Goals: re-thinking and re-designing network equipment towards more energy-sustainable and eco-friendly technologies and perspectives.

The overall idea is to introduce novel green network-specific paradigms and concepts enabling the reduction of energy requirements of wired network equipment by 50% in the short/mid-term (and by 80% in the long run) with respect to the business-as-usual scenario.

To this end, the main challenge is to design, develop and test novel technologies, integrated control criteria and mechanisms for network equipment allowing energy saving by dynamically adapting the device capacities and consumptions to current traffic loads and user requirements.

GN3 Green Networking: Advances in Environmental Policy and Practice

Energy consumption and energy efficiency demand

There are two main motivations that drive the quest for green ICT:

the environmental one, which is related to the reduction of wastes, in order to impact on CO2 emission;

the economical one, which stems from the reduction of operating costs (OPEX) of ICT services.

Gartner Group, Inc. (2007)

The global information and communications technology (ICT) industry accounts for approximately 2% of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, a figure equivalent to aviation.

Note that the ICT sector raises much faster than aviation

How much is 2% of CO2?

Energy consumption and energy efficiency demand

The figures refer to the whole corporate consumption. As such, they account for numerous sources, other than the operational absorption of the networking equipment (e.g., offices heating and lights). Notwithstanding, they give an idea of the general trend.

There is no significant difference in power consumption whether a port is running at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.

The switch power consumption is increased by connecting a new link, even if there is no data being transmitted on this link.

The difference in power consumption is quite low when a 1 Gbps link is fully utilized compared to when it is zero utilized.

GN3 Green Networking: Advances in Environmental Policy and Practice

Decomposing the Energy Consumption Energy wastes

Networks and devices are lightly utilized.

Often peak loads during rush hours are generally much lower than capacities of links and devices.

It is well known that the overdimensioning is the best design strategy for assuring QoS levels

Moreover, traffic loads follow well-known day & night fluctuations.

On the other hand, the energy requirements of network devices remain substantially flat according to their workload.

Furthermore, networks are highly overprovisioned /redundant to assure service availability.

GN3 Green Networking: Advances in Environmental Policy and Practice

The dynamic adaptation of network/device resources is designed to modulate capacities of packet processing engines and of network interfaces, to meet actual traffic loads and requirements.

This can be performed by using two power-aware capabilities, namely, dynamic voltage scaling and idle logic, which both allow the dynamic trade-off between packet service performance and power consumption.

In PC-based devices, the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) provides a standardized interface between the hardware and the software layers.

ACPI introduces two power saving mechanisms, which can be individually employed and tuned for each core:

Power States (C-states)

C0 is the active power state

C1 through Cn are processor sleeping or idle states (where the processor consumes less power and dissipates less heat).

Performance States (P-states)

while in the C0 state, ACPI allows the performance of the core to be tuned through P-state transitions.P-states allow to modify the operating energy point of a processor/core by altering the working frequency and/or voltage, or throttling the clock.

Sleeping/standby approaches are used to smartly and selectively drive unused network/device portions to low standby modes, and to wake them up only if necessary.

However,

since todays networks and related services and applications are designed to be continuously and always available,

standby modes have to be explicitly supported with special techniques able to maintain the network presence of sleeping nodes/components.

Scenario: networked hosts (PCs, consumer electronics, etc.);

Problem: when an end-host enters standby mode, it freezes all network services, and it is not able to maintain its network presence;

Idea: introduce a Network Connection Proxy (NCP), which is devoted to maintain the network presence of sleeping hosts.

Solution: they exploited two features already present in todays networks and devices:

network resource virtualization

modular architecture of network nodes.

This approach allows to:

Put physical resources to sleep (e.g., links, linecards, etc.);

Move the logical entities working on physical elements going to sleep, to other physical elements on the device.

If suitable L2 protocols are used, the complexity of standby management can be hidden from the IP layer, and totally managed inside traffic engineering procedures.

Standby states have usually much lower energy requirements than active states.

Network-wide control strategies (i.e., routing and traffic engineering) give the possibility of moving traffic load among network nodes.

When a network is under-utilized, we can move network load on few active nodes, and put all the other ones in standby.

Different network nodes can have heterogeneous energy capabilities and profiles.

Recent studies, obtained with real data from Telcos (topologies and traffic volumes) suggested that network-wide control strategies could cut the overall energy consumption by more than 23%.

Adoption of pure optical switching architectures:

They can potentially provide terabits of bandwidth at much lower power dissipation than current network devices.

But their widespread adoption is still hindered by technological challenges: problems mainly regard the limited number of ports and the feasibility of suitable buffering schemes.

Decreasing feature sizes in semiconductor technology have contributed to performance gains:

allowing higher clock frequencies

designing improvements such as increased parallelism.

the same technology trends have also allowed for a decrease in voltage that has reduced the power per byte transmitted by half every two years, as suggested by Dennards scaling law.

Modeling and control

Recently a simple model has been proposed by Bolla et al, which is based on classical queueing theory and allows representing the trade-off between energy and network performance in the presence of both AR and LPI capabilities.

The model is aimed at describing the behaviour of packet processing engines.

It is based on a Mx/D/1/SET queueing system.

Standardization efforts

The European Union already published a number of Codes of Conduct

covering different categories of equipment, including broadband equipment, data centres, power supplies, UPS. The Code of Conduct on Energy Consumption of Broadband Equipment has been defined by the EU, which sets targets in reducing energy consumption in the access network

IEEE has also ratified the Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) standard in October 2010, also known as IEEE 802.3az,

which is a set of enhancements to the twisted-pair and backplane Ethernet networking standards that will allow for more than 50% less power consumption during periods of low data activity, while retaining full compatibility with existing equipment.

ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy that has defined the ENERGY STAR Product Specifications.

IETF has recently established the Energy Management (EMAN) Working Group.

Different interesting issues are under consideration by the Environmental Engineering Technical Body in ETSI

The Home Gateway Initiative (HGI) launched an internal task force called Energy Saving with the objective of setting up requirements and specifications for energy efficiency in the home gateways

5.2.1.1 TELIT Testbed The chain that will be created in the TELIT test plant will reproduce a complete

telecommunication network from the backbone transport to the final customer devices.

In order to guarantee the correct devices configuration and the appropriate interconnection among them, the chain will be realized with the presence and the contribution of all the partners who have provided the nodes of the network.

The scheme of the test network is shown in Figure 32.

Figure 32: Scheme of the chain that will be used in the testbed.

The test will be performed by measuring the consumption of the entire network while the appropriate traffic (as defined in section 4.2) is generated and sent into the network. All the nodes will be fed by the same electrical source in order to collect all the absorbed power. At the same time the power consumption of single devices will be collected from the on-board monitoring system of each network component thus is will be feasible to make a fine analysis of the power absorbed by each part of the chain.

All consumption data will be collected and synchronized with the traffic analysis performed by the traffic generator and analyser.

The tests will be conducted in different ways in order to collect the consumption characteristics in several conditions. In particular, an initial measurement will be performed with all energy saving functionality (where possible) disabled in order to obtain a base comparison situation.

Then, the measurement will be repeated in different device configurations and by applying the different traffic engineering policies that will be developed in the project.
