Carrier/WAN SDN Demo overview

Carrier SDN / WAN

Goals and motivations

Goals

• Create a global SDN network

• Let entities communicate at L3 without legacy routers in the network core

Demonstrate that ONOS can work

• in real network scenarios

• providing high performance, HA and scalability

Agile deployment model

• Improve partners network, improve ONOS

• Fundamental feedback from production translated into requirements

Conclusions

Summary

• 48 OpenFlow switches, 12 institutions connected over 3 continents

• Two ONOS applications has been validated: SDN-IP and ICONA

Insights

• ONOS needs features for production use

• Network operators need to use an agile process for deployment

• Vendors need to improve OF support and guarantee resources isolation

Future work

• More RENs and partners joining the testbed from Q3 2015

• Focus on stability, performances and scalability
