FIGURE C-4. UA PROGRESSION FROM CIRCUIT BASED TO NET-CENTRIC COMMUNICATIONS.<br />
Themes<br />
The following “Communications Themes” set the tone for this section and are provided to guide new<br />
systems development and legacy system migration.<br />
� Implement an Internet Protocol (IP) based UA networking architecture<br />
� Migrate point-to point circuits to an IP based network<br />
� Register all data with the DISA metadata repository<br />
� Implement network access and connectivity via JTRS enabled terminals, evolutionary terminal<br />
acquisition<br />
� Provide timely, reliable, secure transmission <strong>of</strong> large quantities <strong>of</strong> data with eventual migration to<br />
SCA compliant CDL, JTRS and Family <strong>of</strong> Advanced Beyond Line-<strong>of</strong>-Sight Terminals (FAB-T)<br />
� Provide assured, direct connectivity into the Transformational Communications System (TCS) space<br />
backbone<br />
UA networking will incorporate the following major functional areas.<br />
� Routing. mobile ad-hoc routing, traditional routing, and global connectivity<br />
� Mobility and IPv6. mobility services for both user hosts and networks<br />
� Quality <strong>of</strong> Service (QoS)/Class <strong>of</strong> Service (COS). guaranteed and differentiated services for user<br />
networks<br />
� Network Management. management <strong>of</strong> mobile nodes and integration with other GIG network<br />
management systems<br />
� Information Assurance (IA). IP network security<br />
DOD INITIATIVES<br />
The DoD is transforming from a hierarchical, point-to-point (circuit switched) architecture to horizontally<br />
integrated, net-centric operational model. The highly successful, DoD mandated CDL program will<br />
contribute significantly to UA communications for the foreseeable future, transitioning to this net-centric<br />
configuration in the coming years. In addition, DoD has sponsored six key technology initiatives: JTRS,<br />
GIG Bandwidth Expansion (GIG-BE), Transformation Communications Architecture (TCA) SATCOM
