The Basic IPN Concept:Construct a “Network of internets”Deploy standard internets in low latency remote environments (e.g., on or around remote rocks)
Connect distributed internets via an interplanetary backbone that handles the high latency deep space environment.
Create gateways and relays to interface between low and high latency environments

The Good News Is ...Much of the ongoing work in terrestrial mobile ad hoc networking is interesting, relevant, and timely
We can probably apply these emerging terrestrial technologies to our in-situ space communications needs, rather than developing them from scratch
But…
Anything deployed on remote rocks is going to be slow to evolve

What’s a Backbone?A set of high-capacity, high-availability links between network traffic hubs
Terrestrial backbone links are between hubs like Lisbon and Paris.
Interplanetary backbone links are between hubs like Europa and Mars.
Availability is a matter of perspective...

On the Interplanetary Backbone:
Communications capacity is expensive
Bits count
Round Trips hurt
Interactive protocols don’t workInternet protocol suite doesn’t scale well with increasing latency Negotiation is impracticalReliable in-order delivery takes too longProtocols need to be connectionlessCongestion control and flow control are difficultReliance on forward coding versus retransmission for error recovery
Custody, store-and-forward data transfer is fundamental
“Chatty Telephony” gives way to “Bundled Mail” as the model of operations

Communication in a Micro-Power Environment:
It's a Full-Stack JobLink Layer:
• Effects of very low SNRs in conjunction with QOS Multiple simultaneous coding schemes needed?Resource reservation/interference avoidance
• Signaling of link status to upper layers: availability; capacity and congestion status; error status
Network Layer:
• MANETs with both fast- and slow-moving elements• Changing resource availability• Synthesis and propagation of link status• Resource allocation: integrated services?, adaptive• Self organization

Communicating in a Micro-Power Environment:
It's a Full-Stack JobTransport Layer:
• Power-efficiency requires careful balance between link layer coding and transport layer retransmission• Adaptive to changing network conditions
QOS-responsiveTolerant of link outages and mixed losses
Application Layer:
• Service location in infrastructure-free environment• Efficient network management and control• Health and status of mobile nodes (not just networking aspects)

While communications with distant
rocks can be exciting... The IPN is really about exploring the
evolutionary paths the Internet may take as the dynamic range of interconnected environments continues to increase...• Autonomy - functional and/or administrative
• Mobility - not just nodes, but entire networks
• Impedance Matching - keeping the backbone fair, but allowing subnets to be aggressive
While preserve the end-to-end semantics of communications

Inter-Internet Dialog: Design Principles
Names are the means of reference
Routing between domains based upon names
Late-Binding
Separate addressing domains for each internet; names converted to local addresses in destination domain
Indirection
Inherent dependence on intermediate relay agents
Custodial transfer
“Bundles” as a common end-to-end mailing mechanism

Bundled Data Transfers
Traffic is inherently non-interactive
• A single self-contained request generates a single
self-contained response • Distinctly taciturn, “non-chatty” dialog
Bundling Protocol lives above the local transport protocols, but below end-to-end applications
• Minimally, carries names end-to-end in “metadata”• Potential applicability to new Internet applications

IPN Security Requirements
access control to the IPN will be required because space-based assets will have limited available resources.
authentication will be required to perform access controls.
data integrity will be required to assure that what was sent is received.
data privacy will be required to assure that unauthorized users cannot obtain information.
![Page 25: The Interplanetary Internet Challenges for the Internet's Evolution TERENA Networking Conference 2000 24 May 2000 Scott Burleigh, Vint Cerf Bob Durst,](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110210/56649e755503460f94b76139/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• We can only have end-to-end security where there are end-to-end protocols, so:
- security cannot be performed in the IPN at transport or below IPSEC
• In the IPN, end-to-end protocols (e.g. TCP) are terminated at the IPN gateways
.• End-to-end like security can only be applied to the data (e.g.,TLS/SSL, S/email)
- is TLS/SSL the right answer (many round-trip negotiations)? NO!- is secure email model is a better fit? YES- key management - “PKI to the Planets?”
