The emergence of 5G wireless and IoT (Internet of Things) technologies, as well as the continuous evolution of cloud computing is driving the need for easy and on-demand creation of end-to-end network services. We have developed an integrated system called the end-to-end network service orchestrator, which realizes seamless service orchestration across multiple on-premises and cloud infrastructures...
OpenFlow/Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a new networking paradigm that virtualizes network infrastructure by decoupling the control and data plane logic of traditional network devices. The controller of SDN has the overall look about network topology and hence provides flexibility to network operators to implement its own routing approaches. However, it could not control the way client works...
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a promising solution for addressing challenges of future networks. Despite its advantages such as flexibility, simplification and low costs, it has several drawbacks that are largely induced by the centralized control paradigm. Security is one of the most significant challenges related to centralization. In that regard, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks...
In this paper, we introduce a SDN(Software Defined Network) based DDoS(Distributed Denial of Service) Defense mechanism. Our mechanism employs SDN's flexibility to redirect packets. The traffic between clients and servers is relayed by a group of dynamic proxy node switches. After several shuffles, our mechanism can mitigate DDoS attack as well as quarantine attackers. The simulation results confirm...
In the traditional Publish/Subscribe (Pub/Sub) paradigm, most of the responsibilities lie with the broker, thus making it burdened. It also takes a considerable amount of time to first route the publications and subscriptions towards the broker, and then to further route the notifications to the subscribers. This leads to delays in data delivery. Besides delay and bandwidth consumption, the number...
Latest research in smart grid communications has advocated the aggregation of multiple traffic flows in order to achieve an improved throughput. While aggregation improves the overall throughput, the individual flows still suffer from unfair throughput performance. As a result, the enablers for time sensitive smart grid services such as load-shedding that require a timely report of data are the most...
In this paper we show an SDN controller implementation named Basebox that listens to Linux Netlink and translates commands into OpenFlow rules to control a domain of OF-DPA based switches in an OpenStack cluster.
This paper presents a research of applying software-based SDN network virtualization technology across data centers in a large enterprise. The development history of SDN was briefly reviewed at the beginning, followed by introductions to two SDN network virtualization solutions based on overlay network. An implement method in an enterprise is elaborated based on SDN solutions. This method is proved...
Virtual switches are a key elements within the new paradigms of Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV). Unlike proprietary networking appliances, virtual switches come with a high level of flexibility in the management of their physical resources such as the number of CPU cores, their allocation to the switching function, and the capacities of the RX queues, which...
This paper shows the effectiveness of the system that controls the network route based on social information. An automatic route control is performed with the network virtualization node FLARE that uses VLAN coupling between each base of the wide area network test bed called JGN-X as a platform.
In order to achieve dynamic load balancing based on data flow level, in this paper, we apply SDN technology to the cloud data center, and propose a dynamic load balancing method of cloud center based on SDN. The approach of using the SDN technology in the current task scheduling flexibility, accomplish real-time monitoring of the service node flow and load condition by the OpenFlow protocol. When...
Network Virtualization Overlays (NVO3) provides multi-tenancy services in cloud data centers with existing networking equipment. IP tunneling is an essential technology to logically separate each virtual traffic, in particular, Stateless Transport Tunneling (STT) is considered to achieve better performance using TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) feature. Currently, there is no openly available implementation...
Multicast is a technology that allows transmission of data efficiently from one server to multiple recipients at once. To use this technology, required devices and systems that support multicast such as router/switch that supports IGMP. Software Defined Networking (SDN) and OpenFlow has emerged as a new paradigm in networking. With SDN, network is no longer closed, proprietary, and difficult to program...
Under the OTT threat, a telecom call-based ICT integration approach is studied to alleviate the revenue shrinkage. The CT-initiated IT services are thereby proposed to maintain existing telecom call service while adding OTT-like communication features on Internet. To do this, an IMS-based ICT service infrastructure is developed and the OpenFlow Controller is incorporated. Under such infrastructure...
Cloud computing environments face many unique security challenges. Location-based firewalls with static policies require long provisioning times relative to other cloud data center components, and are not well suited to dynamic, virtualized workloads. In this paper, we discuss the use of virtual firewalls facilitated by software defined network overlays with forwarding graphs. Experimental results...
In this paper, we propose a platform named EmuCloud, aiming to provide a test environment for SDN with high fidelity and low cost. EmuCloud is based on IaaS cloud, and the key idea of the platform is to extend the abstract networking resources to provide virtual openflow switch, and combine this new abstraction with existing service (such as computing, storage, authentication, etc.) seamlessly. Compared...
Global research on B4G/5G is widely started. And software enabled wireless network evolution is largely impacted by IT industry — cloud computing, SDN, and CCN. However, most research on cellular network from academia is hard to deploy on real cellular network due to closed ecosystem and licensed spectrum. We propose an open source wireless switch as a research platform for B4G/5G network. Through...
Lately enhancing the capability of network services automatically and dynamically through SDN and CDN/CDNi networks has become a recent topic of research. While, in one hand, these systems can be very beneficial to control and optimize the overall network services that studies the topology, traffic paths, packet handling and such others, on the other hand, the servers in such architectures can also...
The scale and expense of modern data centers motivates running them as efficiently as possible. This paper explores how virtualized data center performance can be improved when network traffic and topology data informs VM placement. Our practical heuristics, tested on network-heavy, scale-out workloads in an 80 server cluster, improve overall performance by up to 70% compared to random placement in...
Novel approaches for network virtualization at Layer 2 which are not based on VLAN have became a real possibility since the appearance of Software Defined Networking and OpenFlow in particular. We have deployed our own network virtualization facility based on Layer 2 prefixes using OpenFlow: the EHU OpenFlow Enabled Facility (EHU-OEF). We have implemented a solution that allows research and production...
