Research and Education (R&E) Network Backbone Integration
To access the scientific research network, institutions must connect to one of the 18 regional network centers across the country. Typically, institutions connect to these regional centers via dedicated lines from ISPs such as KT, SKB, LGU+, or through their own network infrastructure.
