SoNIC Software defined Precise Measurement in GENI

Software defined Precise Measurement in GENI

Demo participants: Han Wang

Affiliation: Cornell University

We will demonstrate SoNIC, which enables real-time access to 10Gbps Ethernet physical layer in software. By implementing the creation of the bitstream in software and the transmission of the bitstream in hardware, SoNIC provides complete control over the entire network stack in realtime. SoNIC utilizes commodity-off-the-shelf multi-core processors to implement part of the physical layer in software, and employs a FPGA board to transmit optical signal over the wire. As an example of SoNIC's fine-granularity control, it can perform precise network measurements at the pico-second scale, accurately characterizing network components such as routers, switches, and network interface cards. We will demonstrate the capability of SoNIC to performance long distance network measurement over GENI between sites at NY and CA.
