Partner Portal request TypeService TypeDescription and Examples 
GÉANT Plus CircuitGÉANT Plus circuitAny GÉANT Plus circuit between two clients or users, including a cross connect on the same router, but excluding MS ExpressRoutes and GEANT Open cross-connects
IP SubscriptionGÉANT member NREN Access Port

The addition (or potentially removal) of a GÉANT member NREN Access Port i.e. a port connected to the GEANT backbone routed network, for the use of that NREN. 
This would include ports which are being dedicated to services other than the R&E backbone e.g. LHCONE, Peering (because the port's capacity still counts towards the NREN's subscription).
However, if an NREN is requesting a port for the exclusive use of one of their users (such that it won't be available to their general user base), and the NREN therefore does not want the port to be counted towards their subscription, then this should not be used    

Lambda100G Lambda A point to point 100G service provided across the optical backbone.   
GBS10G Guaranteed Bandwidth Service The 10G Guaranteed Bandwidth Service introduced in 2020 to replace the 10G Lambda service.  10G GBS is always presented on a dedicate interface and this Request type includes that additional interface.
GWS SubscriptionGÉANT World ServiceAny change to to an Indirect or Brokered Direct GÉANT World Service (GWS) subscription.  Note, Independent Direct services are managed entirely by the user NREN and do not require an SRF
(although usage does need to be recorded to ensure that aggregate pricing is properly provided by supplies).  
Additional InterfaceA new physical  interface Any new physical interface without an associated BGP peering.  This therefore includes new GEANT Open Interfaces.    
ServiceA non standard bespoke requestsOnly to be used for a non-standard, bespoke request.
InterconnectAn R&E peering with partner  A new BGP peering (with or without a new interface) with a non-member REN on the R&E backbone network, or other network connecting for project or special purposes.  e.g. Cloud provider for CERN.
Open Exchange Cross ConnectA cross-connect between 2 existing GÉANT Open MembersA cross-connect between 2 existing GÉANT Open Members, where at least one party is not a GÉANT member NREN - if both parties are GÉANT members then it is a GÉANT Plus unless they specifically request it is recorded as a GEANT Open Cross Connect.
FoDFirewall On DemandA request to join (or modify or leave) the FoD service. Not to be used for a request for a rule to be applied (which is managed by OC and does not need an SRF). FoD is a security service.
