Time-based Updates in OpenFlow: A Proposed Extension to the OpenFlow Protocol
نویسندگان
چکیده
Software Defined Networking (SDN) defines a network architecture in which the control plane is managed by a logically centralized controller, and thus configuration updates occur frequently. We have recently introduced an approach that uses time-based configuration updates, allowing to simplify complex update procedures and to minimize transient effects caused by configuration changes. This paper proposes an extension to the OpenFlow Protocol that allows time-triggered configuration updates.

متن کاملOpenFlow: Extension for OpenFlow and its Implementation
The Internet has made great success and big progress. However, the network-layer of Internet and the network devices in Internet have been relatively stagnant. Few changes or improvements have been made in last forty years, which is a stark contrast to the prosperity of the application-layer of the Internet. OpenFlow aims to enable innovation for the network-layer and network devices, which dec...
متن کاملOpenFlow-based Link Dimensioning
In this demo we will demonstrate the possibility of using OpenFlow traffic measurements for link dimensioning purposes. Our solution runs on top of the Ryu OpenFlow controller and retrieves per-flow statistics metered at the OpenFlow switch. The statistics are obtained by using messages defined by the OpenFlow protocol. These statistics are then applied to a flowbased link dimensioning approach...

متن کاملChallenges and solution for measuring available bandwidth in software defined networks
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an emerging paradigm that is expected to revolutionize computer networks. Methods for measuring Quality of Service (QoS) parameters such as bandwidth utilization, packet loss, and delay have been recently introduced in literature for SDN-based scenarios, but they required almost invariably a completely different approach with respect to traditional network e...
