Abstract

The research object is aiming to answer how to fix one of the problems of a region regarding global latency conditions. Telkom, as one of largest ISP in Indonesia, is having problem with the overall score regarding quality parameters, impact on their internet service products in the Bekasi area being below other operators. With this problem, an evaluation needs to be carried out to analyze in depth the current position and the possibility of network improvement. The core-to-core backbone initiation for the Batam - Bekasi area is the object of research, by optimizing efficient transport paths and designing an IP Backbone topology with a 1-hop router (bypass). The research began with brainstorming the topology of the transport system, IP system, finding gaps between these approaches, then initiating the implementation of integration and logic configuration, while maintaining the existing network conditions. As an addition, other parameters related to network traffic management are also considered. The results obtained from this study and its application to real networks are directly proportional to the objectives, marked by significant latency improvements for each PoP link from PoP Bekasi to PoP Batam by average 1 to 3 ms. Moreover, the results of the Bekasi based on network quality report have an impact, where there is improvement in latency with a delta of 2 to 4 ms in each subject area of Bekasi.
