Enabled Capability and Security
in Military Federated Networks
NATO C4ISR Industry Conference & TechNet International 2014
Bucharest, 26 March 2014
AMN – Not a Federated Network
The Italian Case
•
The ISAF transportation network
has been implemented by NATO
prior to the deployment of the
national systems
•
IFTS (Interim Force Tracking
System) devices have been
assigned to Coalition Forces to
grant interoperability with US
Commands
•
At Brigade Command Post level,
interoperability with Italian FAS
(SIACCON) has been achieved
via NFFI gateways, standard
Ethernet connection and manual
procedures.
As a matter of fact, interoperability is obtained through system homogenization, not through
the integration of networks and orchestration of National Services

From a Provider Network to Federated Networks
Enterprise vs. Tactical
Enterprise Environment (Net-Centric Enterprise Services)
• Provides strategic and operational planning
• Unconstrained Bandwidth (>10Mbps)
• Stable Communications Infrastructure; no mobility
• Need to pass large amounts of data in a timely manner, QoS through bandwidth over-provisioning
• Need to discover and share data across disparate systems without developing new interfaces
• Works well for NCES enabling technologies (XML, HTTP, TCP/IP, SOAP, etc)
• Typically based on COTS Technology
Tactical Environment
• Provides operational execution
• Constrained by low bandwidth (< 10/100 kbps)
• Different radio technologies
A AA
• Constrained by unstable, dynamic
communications networks and connections
• Needs information security and transmission
protection
B.de HQ
• Only needs the relevant data for their Area of
Responsibility (AOR)
FOB
• Need to receive actionable information in a
timely manner that has immediate relevancy
• Based on military equipment and devices
