- ILAN, the Israeli Academic Network, established in 1984, is
- dedicated to universities and academic, medical, and non-
- profit research institutes. The network is widely used for
- scientific, educational, academic, and research purposes:
- commercial and political use is not allowed, either directly
- or indirectly.
-
- ILAN has installed six 64kb lines to create a central high-
- speed backbone between Israel's seven major universities.
- ILAN has international connections to EARN and Nysernet.
-
- ILAN's former NJE traffic and all EARN/Bitnet network ser-
- vices now run on ILAN's TCP/IP backbone. We plan a 56kb
- link to Nysernet (the New York State Educational and
- Research Network), a regional network of NSFNET (the US
- National Science Foundation Network). In the interim, ILAN
- will connect to Nysernet via a 9.6kb IP link.
-
- Our backbone supports "Aleph," a project for the computeri-
- zation and interconnection of all university library card
- catalogs, which is near to completion. This system allows
- students and faculty to search card catalogs at local
- university libraries as well as libraries located at other
- universities within Israel. Since this system was developed
- long before the ILAN project, it was based on DECNET
