California Government Enterprise Network (CGEN)
The California Government Enterprise Network (CGEN) services is comprised of all network services provided by CDT such as: Vendor Managed WAN, SDWAN, FRS, DNS, VPN, CPI, etc. These services provide statewide network access and deliver network traffic to CDT Customer headquarters sites, CDT hosting facilities, the Internet, other state agencies and departments, California counties, and external business partners.
To request additional CGEN services and view rates, see CGEN Services & Rates.
CGEN also provides a connection to CENIC – The Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California (CENIC) that operates the high capacity California Research and Education Network (CalREN).
CGEN (Vendor Managed WAN)
CGEN services provide the California State Government WAN connectivity through vendor-owned and managed equipment. The network access equipment is owned by CALNET vendors. The vendor will be responsible for the operation of these devices as well as the Wide Area Network (WAN). This is a “bundled” service and the vendor equipment includes the circuit, the router, and the telephone line with modem attached to each router for remote management (one measured business line). The vendor manages from the customer’s LAN to the vendor’s routers in the CDT iHubs. Customers can access the Internet, CDT facilities, customer servers, and applications hosted at CDT and other State departments. CDT is the owner-of-record and manages the provisioning of customer connectivity. Customers are still responsible for their own local area network (LAN).
CGEN employs Layer 3 advanced Multiple Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) which is any-to-any access and supports Quality of Service. Where applicable, Layer 2 transport can be used. CGEN is reliable, scalable, and secure and leverages the vendor’s ability to keep CGEN current with technology and industry standards.
CDT will continue to manage the network infrastructure that supports CGEN. This infrastructure includes two interface hubs (iHubs); each one being in a different geographic location and local access transport area (LATA) for diversity and fault tolerance. One is located in Sacramento and one in San Jose. The iHubs are the gateways to servers located at CDT and to the Internet.

Service Management Model
CGEN leverages CALNET vendor-managed service product offerings. The CGEN Service bundle is a shared responsibility model, offering end-to-end WAN connectivity using vendor-owned routers at the customer edge, and vendor-owned circuits connecting to 2 CDT iHubs. The diagram below illustrates the CGEN Shared Responsibility Model:
Application Protocols
Application protocol services are available from the CALNET vendors. The following list identifies the protocols that are currently available.

Internet Access
Most of the State’s Internet access service is provided by the iHubs. The iHubs work together to provide a central point that coordinates the State’s Internet access over multiple service providers. The Internet Access service includes fundamental security measures designed to protect the State networks. The following are included in the CDT Internet access service:
- Intrusion Detection Service
- Intrusion Prevention Service
- De-militarized Zone network segments
Generally, implementations that enforce Internet usage policy are implemented by CDT customers.
Security
CGEN includes the following security measures:
- Customer sites are connected to a Customer’s virtual network which is isolated from all other Customer networks.
- Virtual LAN technology used in the iHubs protects each Customer’s virtual network.
- Since the network access device is managed by the CALNET vendor, sites requiring firewall functions should implement a separate device for that purpose. The firewall device can be Customer provided or CDT-provided.
- CDT staff with access to Customer data receives appropriate background checks.
- CDT Security Operations Center (SOC) monitors internet traffic 24×7.
For more information, see Security Services.
