Abstract

OpenFlow switching enables flexible management of enterprise network switches and experiments on regular network traffic. We present in this paper a complementary design to OpenFlow's existing reference designs. We apply network processor based acceleration cards to perform OpenFlow switching. We describe the design options and report our experiment results that show a 20% reduction on packet delay and the comparable packet forwarding throughput compared to conventional designs.

Performance Analysis of SDN/OpenFlow Controllers: POX Versus Floodlight

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is an emerging network architecture that is adaptable, dynamic, cost-effective, and manageable. The SDN architecture is a form of network virtualization where the network controlling functions and forwarding functions ...
Runtime Resource Allocation Model over Network Processors
IC2E '14: Proceedings of the 2014 IEEE International Conference on Cloud Engineering

Delivering high performance when several virtual nodes share the same physical resources requires finding the optimal resource allocation between them. In the context of Software Defined Network (SDN) and Network Virtualization, data plane requires the ...
OpenFlow data planes performance evaluation
Abstract
Software-Defined Networks, in its essence, are the separation of the data and control planes of switching devices. The OpenFlow (OF) protocol is the most popular SDN protocol today, being available in many switches. This is due to the ...
