RESTENA
RESTENA (Réseau Téléinformatique de l'Education Nationale et de la Recherche) is the high-speed network for the education and research community of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The network has been operational since 1989 and connected to the global Internet since 1992.
The network is operated by the Restena Foundation, which was established in 2000. The Restena Foundation brings together all types of research and teaching bodies and the Ministry of National Education and Vocational Training, the Ministry of Higher Education and Research and the Ministry of Finance
The foundation also coordinates national Internet resources including the domain name registry for the .lu domain and participates actively in the Internet exchange point (LU-CIX).
The Restena Foundation offers eligible institutions and establishments in the field of education, research, culture, health, administration Internet access, and connectivity to GÉANT and the Luxembourg Internet Exchange. A point-to-point connection service is available for institutions to interconnect remote sites via a virtual private network (VPN); those links are implemented via DWDM lambdas or Ethernet VLAN. Connected institutions can benefit from a range of network management services, such as data communications equipment configuration and monitoring of the connection facilities between the institution and the national backbone. A secure Web interface allows the institution's connectivity performance to be monitored and evaluated. Service availability (www, mail, etc.) is watched, and the status is notified by email or SMS.
The domain name service includes recursive, authoritative DNS servers for all domain names required by the institutions.
The Network Time Protocol service allows synchronizing the clocks of all computer and network equipment. This service is available to connected institutions and individual users.
A pool of public IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are available for allocation to connect institutions.
The ADSL service provides continuous, unlimited access at high speeds to all national RESTENA network services and the Internet and GÉANT. Dial-up access via ISDN or analog modem gives less demanding users access to network services.
