NXS-NET
NXS-NET (network topology and continuity) covers connectivity and communications continuity: the networks that every other system and every response depends on, and how they behave when parts fail.

NXS-NET serves these platforms.
Every system assumes the network is there.
NXS-NET is defined in system profile NRS-S10 of the Nexus Standards. Data exchange, warnings and coordination all depend on connectivity that is itself exposed to power loss, cable cuts, congestion and attack. Continuity planning needs to know which paths exist, which are diverse and which are single points of failure.
- Path diversity and single points of failure.
- Continuity under power loss and congestion.
- Telemetry on network health.
The standards a design like this is read against.
| Reference | Relevance |
|---|---|
| ITU standards | Telecommunications |
| NIST CSF 2.0 | Resilience of networked services |
| ISO 22301 | Continuity planning |
What it exchanges with the other systems.
- Carries NXS-OPS (instruments, sensors and calibration) telemetry and NXS-EWS (multi-hazard monitoring and warning) messages.
- Spectrum and timing integrity from NXS-SIG.
The ten rooms of NXS-NET.
NXS-NET has the eight rooms every Foundry system shares, set to its own authority, and two specialist rooms, Topology and Continuity. Each is described by the work it is designed for; the public register records NXS-NET as declared, not deployed.
| Room | Kind | Designed to |
|---|---|---|
| Station | Shared | Operate, inspect and correct authoritative domain posture for network topology, connectivity, service intent, telemetry and resilience |
| Mission | Shared | Coordinate bounded objective-oriented intelligence and human handoff for network topology, connectivity, service intent, telemetry and resilience |
| Builder | Shared | Design, engineer and prepare governed changes and artefacts for network topology, connectivity, service intent, telemetry and resilience |
| Maps | Shared | Inspect and compose spatial, temporal and world-model intelligence for network topology, connectivity, service intent, telemetry and resilience |
| Data | Shared | Work with data, ontology, Chronotopes, graphs, scientific methods and risk for network topology, connectivity, service intent, telemetry and resilience |
| Commons | Shared | Work with policy, law, standards, clauses, obligations and assurance for network topology, connectivity, service intent, telemetry and resilience |
| Reports | Shared | Compute, model, synthesise and visualise governed analytical products and reproducible reports for network topology, connectivity, service intent, telemetry and resilience |
| Knowledge | Shared | Work with institutional memory, records, citations, runbooks and learning for network topology, connectivity, service intent, telemetry and resilience |
| Topology | Specialist | Maintain a governed network and service topology and analyse intended versus observed connectivity |
| Continuity | Specialist | Plan and manage communications continuity under outage, degradation, congestion or provider loss |

Where NXS-NET subjects are taught.
Risk Academy, led by the Nexus Consortium, teaches the subjects practised in NXS-NET in these disciplines; the Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI) links to the Academy as a partner and does not provide its courses.

Questions and answers.
Is the system available now?
Bring a method, a dataset or a question.
Information and enquiries are open today. An enquiry receives a reference and names the next step; applications, payments, compute allocations and registrations open only when their team, terms and review capacity exist.
