LSST NET Meeting 2020

In 2017, as a consequence, from the AmLight SAACC Spring Engineering meeting, the LSST Network Engineering Team (NET) was formed to describe the requirements to interconnect the networks and operations towards a manageable, cost-effective, secure and scalable end-to-end network infrastructure to support LSST. LSST NET includes network engineers from every institution involved with the LSST end-to-end network provisioning and governance. The goal of the April 23rd meeting of the LSST NET team is to further clarify the requirements and interconnections to each of the networks that will be supporting LSST.
