RCTS Plus is a connectivity service that provides a set of advanced functionality provided by the creation of Ethernet Virtual Private Networks (VPN).
It is a service especially intended for projects or applications that require high-performance circuit-switched connectivity, but that do not require an Internet connection.
It is especially intended for distributed applications, both in terms of computing and storage.
FEATURES
High data flowsrates can be exchanged over virtual private networks (VPN) under the RCTS Plus service, without passing through IP-switching equipment. Thus, it is possible to achieve better performance and isolation regarding RCTS IP traffic.
RCTS Plus may include entities from other European academic networks connected to GÉANT, through its equivalent service GÉANT Plus.
It also allows direct connections to the Spanish academic network RedIRIS.
The inclusion of entities external to RCTS always requires confirmation that the necessary network features exist.
RCTS PLUS is intended for the institutions eligible for subscription to the RCTS IP service.
