A survey of SDN: Past, Present and Future of Programmable Networks Speaker : Yu-Fu Huang Advisor : Dr. Kai-Wei Ke Date: 2014/Sep./30
Outline Current internet architecture Software Defined Network (SDN) OpenFlow architecture SDN application via OpenFlow architecture Research Challenges and Future Directions References
Internet Ossification • Internet is built from a large number of network devices: • Routers, switches, numerous types of middleboxes and many complex protocols • Simplified best-effort distributed network functions are implemented in vertical-integrated black boxes. • Network management &performance tuning are quite challenging.
Internet Evolvement SDN & (HSN & Digital Convergence) Cloud Services Smart Devices (IOT)
Software Defined Network Forwarding hardware (data plane) is decoupled from control decisions (control plane). Data plane can be programmed via an open interface like OpenFlow. So, SDN is a Programmable network. Network resources virtualization. Controller can be viewed as a Network Operating System.
SDN Architecture 3’rd party applications API NOS Network Resources (Virtualization like) (PC memory & Storage) Commodity Like PC
Benefits of SDN Centralized control Simplified algorithms Commoditizing network hardware Eliminating middleboxes Enabling the design & deployment of 3’rd party applications
Capabilities of OpenFlow Centralized control of the network Software-based traffic analysis Dynamic updating of forwarding rules Flow abstraction
Difference between SDN & OpenFlow SDN abstracts the whole Network-wide state like OS to PC. OpenFlow abstracts a Network component like Diver to OS.
SDN Applications via OpenFlow • Ease of configuration • Network management • Security • Availability • Load balance • Fault tolerance • Network virtualization
SDN Applications via OpenFlow Ease of configuration Data center virtualization Wide area network application Wireless application Other application
Research Challenges and Future Directions Controller and Switch Design Software-Defined Internetworking Controller-Service Interaction Virtualization and Cloud Services Information-Centric Networking Heterogeneous Network Support
