Scope

Internet2 will implement Stage 0 of the Internet2 OpenFlow test network by creating a five node OpenFlow test network using small enterprise switches (HP ProCurve 5406 switches proposed, pending evaluation). The initial design has 10GE WAN interfaces, but that is subject to negotiation of the MOU Internet2 has with GENI for wide-area connectivity. Stage 0 comprises the appropriate OpenFlow controller(s), interfaces to connect several enterprise OpenFlow campuses, and interfaces to connect other projects such as ProtoGENI and SPP. The Stage 0 network will allow members and non-members of Internet2 to connect to GENI OpenFlow services.

Internet2 will create OpenFlow nodes in five cities: Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, New York, and Salt Lake City. Internet2 will also explore integrating the OpenFlow nodes with OpenFlow deployments on ProtoGENI nodes. In this second, complementary-to-ProtoGENI scenario, Internet2 will create OpenFlow nodes in five cities: Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and Seattle.

Current Capabilities

5 NEC OpenFlow switches deployed as shown in diagram, along with FOAM and FlowVisor.
