SESSION OpenFlow and MPLS |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
11.40 |
OpenFlow/SDN Use Cases in Service Provider's Domain |
|
| |
|
  |
The first use case relates to the implementation of a 'Metro Network
Fabric' with IP MPLS VPN services for LTE Backhaul. The second one relates to a 'Service Delivery Fabric' for residential broadband networks.
The talk will summarize the role of OpenFlow in SDN networks based on the lessons learnt from these prototypes.

Intersection of MPLS and OpenFlow in Next Generation Access Networks
Presenting how Openflow can provide traffic engineering requirements of service providers and network operators in next-generation access networks. Our analysis includes support for Quality-of-Service (QoS) monitoring and Service Level Agreement (SLA) assurance and evaluates whether there is an intersection between OpenFlow and MPLS that needs to be considered by the wider community.

SDN for MPLS Networks: Recommended Improvements and Extensions
|
|
| |
|
 |
Proposing some enhancements to OpenFlow so that SDN could do more and better for MPLS networks. Recommending globally-significant labels for MPLS switching and forwarding, especially for multicasting. Recommending to expand the label space after examining the EXP bits and the BOS bit. Re-defining a new semantics for MPLS labels to support network abstraction and network virtualization.

SESSION SDN Impact on MPLS |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
14.30 |
SDN as a Control Plane for Seamless MPLS |
|
| |
|
 |
Covering several reasons that Seamless MPLS is compelling, the service provider pain points it could address, and how to actually make this a reality.
One view of SDN is a centrally managed, distributed control plane that orchestrates network services. Showing how such an SDN applied in the WAN can address the service requirements stated above.

Segment Routing: Technology and Use Cases |
|
| |
|
 |
Introducing a novel routing technique we refer to as segment routing. Showing how it can be applied to MPLS to resolve problems such as multi-path, disjoint path and traffic engineering without requiring RSVP-TE. Highlighting its benefits in the context of SDN.

Requirements for Scalable and Interoperable Solution for Network Virtualization
Demonstrating how MPLS/BGP IP VPN technology can provide a solution for network virtualization controller function that manages the forwarding state of network devices. Presenting scale, connectivity, and interoperability requirements for such solution.

BGP-LS, Foundation for Application-level Topology intelligence |
|
| |
|
 |
The lack of topological visibility beyond the local IGP area is one of the major shortcomings for applications who need to compute forwarding state for the network. The BGP-LS protocol is a unified API for applications to learn about the L2/L3 networktopology.

Carrier Ethernet and SDN |
|
| |
|
 |
Carrier Ethernet has become the dominant market choice for the delivery of predictable, secure, business class services and for mobile backhaul transport. Two of the drivers of this market are business-class Private Cloud Service delivery to the Enterprise and Data Center to Data Center interworking both of which are enabled by Carrier Ethernet. This provides the context for the discussion of how Carrier Ethernet fits in an SDN framework.
