RESOURCE OPTION A--SATELLITE EARTH STATION ACCESS Sample Clauses

RESOURCE OPTION A--SATELLITE EARTH STATION ACCESS. The earth stations of the State satellite interconnect project that provides essential communication links to rural Alaska are aging and using older technology. Without transformation of these earth stations and the satellite delivery system many rural areas of Alaska will cease to be served. The intent of this Resource Option is to find a way to integrate the State's earth stations and the satellite delivery system that connects them into the fabric of the State's network services. Due to the complexity of the systems involved, the need to identify funding sources, and the requirement for systems testing prior to implementation, the Parties agree to the following progression of activities to identify a solution for upgrading the State's earth station infrastructure, and the improvement of telecommunications services in unserved or under-served rural Alaska communities. Not later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the Effective Date, the Parties shall identify and describe at least one solution for transforming the State's earth stations that shall include a description of the technologies to be used, estimated expenses for one-time-only and on-going costs for a transformed system, the services to be delivered, and how this can be integrated with the State WAN. This plan will result in a field trial. Not later than two hundred forty (240) days after the Effective Date, the Parties shall define a LDESP, including the specific technology to be implemented, the locations that will be targeted, the schedule for such deployment, the key personnel that will be involved in the testing, and the total budget for the project. The specific revenue and cost sharing arrangements, and other related business terms, shall also be developed according to this schedule. Further, the Parties shall continue to seek, both prior to and following the LDESP, such third-party funding sources as may be appropriate and reasonable, to further continue the deployment of upgrades to the earth stations not identified in the LDESP. Such funding sources may be capital contributions from public or private sources, additional revenues that may be used to recover capital investments, or other unique funding opportunities the Parties have not yet determined as of the Contract Signing Date. The Parties also agree that third parties may be incorporated into the LDESP, some of whom may have an interest in the deployment of candidate earth station technology in specific communities in Alaska...

  • Network Access Control The VISION Web Site and the Distribution Support Services Web Site (the “DST Web Sites”) are protected through multiple levels of network controls. The first defense is a border router which exists at the boundary between the DST Web Sites and the Internet Service Provider. The border router provides basic protections including anti-spoofing controls. Next is a highly available pair of stateful firewalls that allow only HTTPS traffic destined to the DST Web Sites. The third network control is a highly available pair of load balancers that terminate the HTTPS connections and then forward the traffic on to one of several available web servers. In addition, a second highly available pair of stateful firewalls enforce network controls between the web servers and any back-end application servers. No Internet traffic is allowed directly to the back-end application servers. The DST Web Sites equipment is located and administered at DST’s Winchester data center. Changes to the systems residing on this computer are submitted through the DST change control process. All services and functions within the DST Web Sites are deactivated with the exception of services and functions which support the transfer of files. All ports on the DST Web Sites are disabled, except those ports required to transfer files. All “listeners,” other than listeners required for inbound connections from the load balancers, are deactivated. Directory structures are “hidden” from the user. Services which provide directory information are also deactivated.
