Introduction of MininetMininet is a powerful network simulation platform, through this platform, we can easily simulate the real environment of the network operation and architecture. Current Sdn/openflow development in full swing, but in the real network can not carry out related network experiments, natural need a simulation platform can to this new network architecture, and Mininet came into being, undertook this glorious and arduous mission.The mi

large-scale network. In this way, if anything goes wrong, you will not affect the entire production network. After the process goes smoothly, you can gradually put the SDN test on the production network and build another small network for the transition. Then, SDN can combine the development and operation networks into a single DevOps environment. New features can be quickly used in the production environment after development and testing. 6) Evaluate the products of different vendors: understa

. Shared Memory: Provides shared memory space accessible to all ports for port buffering. This method saves all received data frames in the shared memory pool until the device is ready to forward them to the network. In this way, the vswitch can dynamically allocate shared memory and set the buffer size based on the port traffic. 4. Data Forwarding Whether it is a hardware or software-implemented SDN switch, the switch must make forwarding decisions when data frames are transmitted from the devi

According to the OpenFlow contract [ofp1.0-38], when the physical port OvS DataPath added, changed or deleted. Will run the detailed action first. The controller is then informed by Ofp_port_status asynchronous messages, such as when we run a command such as Ovs-vsctl Add-port br0 eth0, the OVSDB database is updated. The global variable reconfiguring becomes true at one polling time, and this OvS is configured again.if (reconfiguring) {///CFG entries

solutions (such as SR-Iov, Openflow, DPDK, Serverswitch, etc.), and discusses the trend of network development on some technical issues."Cloud computing network Zhu Ji Nanxiong" covers every aspect of Ethernet and TCP/IP network technology, and selects a large number of examples for detailed description, each technology point and instance is carefully selected, both to take into account the network technology development sequence, but also follow the

What exactly is SDN? Although the concept has been fired for many years, no one has yet given a clear idea of it. On the internet also emerged a lot of excellent articles on Sdn thinking, adhering to the "do high-quality content porter" idea, Sdnlab June collected some of the following articles to share with you. Make it possible to have a more stereoscopic understanding of SDN from a number of different perspectives.1. Think deeply about the core nature of SDN: Back to the software-defined netw

Introduction to docker openvswitch Network What isOpenvswich Openvswich network:BelongThird-party network project,It can be understood as a standard switch protocol. Openvswich: openvswitch is a multi-layer software switch based on the Open Source apache2.0 license. It manages multi-Tenancy cloud computing network environments and supports KVM, xen, and other Virtualization Technologies. The following functions are supported: 1.Supports the trunk and access port modes of t

An SDN controller based on the OpenFlow protocol written in the Java language.The basic architecture, like webserver, has an underlying module that maintains the switch connection information, and when a switch is connected to the controller, Floodlight saves the connection to the connection pool and communicates with the switch by NIO.The controller also contains other switch packet storage processing modules, such as the Network topology module (Com

economical way to expand the carrier's Ethernet coverage and facilitate rapid deployment at the network edge. As a supplement to the Brocade CER router, the new Brocade NetIron CES switch is also available today. Brocade also released NetIron software updates to enhance high-performance routing and SDN functions. The new version supports the OpenFlow Hybrid Port Mode technology to help customers deploy both OpenF
