Virtualization Revisited Diversified Internet Project (Wash U)Cabo Project (GaTech, Princeton, UMass)Ambassadors from Reality (AT&T, Google)
Network Virtualization The main requirement of a future network architecture is the ability to run multiple virtual networks in parallel. • Subdivide/share physical components • Nodes • Links • Forwarding tables • Why this is a good idea • Pluralism • Isolation • Customization • Amortization • Two related questions • How to support it (metarouter, VINI) • What to do with it once we have it (splicing, UFO, HORN)
What is Virtualization? • Parameters include • Resource Isolation • Customization • Different application constraints,different hardware support • Are there a common set of features • … to support virtualization? • … to support scalable, highly available routing? • … to support scalable, incrementally deployable, secure routing? ResourceIsolation L2 circuits UFO L3 VPNs HORN Splicing Overlays Customization
