Define OpenFlow feature

Define OpenFlow feature

• Define OpenFlow feature

• Add OpenFlow to commercial switches and APs

• Deploy at Stanford

• Integrate with GENI Clearing House

• Deploy on many college campus networks

• We all create lots of open-source software so researchers can build on each other’s work

• (We’re part-way into Stage 2)

Exploit the flow table in switches, routers, and chipsets

• Exploit the flow table in switches, routers, and chipsets

Chip’s code:

• Chip’s code:

• Static “VLANs”
• His own new routing protocol: unicast, multicast, multipath, load-balancing
• Network access control
• Home network manager
• Mobility manager
• Energy manager
• Packet processor (in controller)
• IPvChip
• Network measurement and visualization
• …

Scalability of a controller

• Scalability of a controller

• Load-balancing over redundant controllers

• Federation, hierarchy and aggregation

• Protecting the controller against DDOS

• Our goal is to enable the research community to explore all these questions
