FlowVisor At A Glance NETWORK HYPERVISOR SOFTWARE FOR ANY OPENFLOW INFRASTRUCTURE Demonstrations Support Via Stanford general OpenFlow discussion forum Showcased at ONS in 2012, GENI GEC9 in 2010 Usage Distribution • Stanford production network, GENI – Multi-tenancy • NEC & Ericsson research labs • Hundreds of network slices in production networks • Available on Githubwith Debian/Ubuntu binary and also Red Hat RPM • 900 downloads per quarters Development • Available today – Stanford license • 100,000 flow space entries FlowVisor is a special purpose OpenFlow controller that acts as a transparent proxy between OpenFlow switches and multiple OpenFlow controllers. FlowVisor creates rich ''slices'' of network resources, isolates them and delegates control of each slice to a different network operating system.
