Description
The quite technical talk will give an overview of the actual network-setup for the operation of the German LOFAR antennafields in combination with correlators at Dwingeloo, Juelich and Bonn as well as for the operation of the LTA at Juelich. Information about operational issues as well as statistics covering the last 12 months of LOFAR observations and data-transfers will be given. In the 2nd part the talk will focus on the actual planning and design activities together with Astron, Surf and the DFN to cope with the upcoming demands of LOFAR 2.0 and even empower GLOW by a capable new high-bandwidth network to address new science-projects between the involved sites.
