Scope

This project will deploy an OpenFlow testbed throughout the University of Wisconsin campus. This project will develop OpenFlow extensions focused on the creation of flexible, heterogeneous slices, the development of a generic load balancer and a captive portal for authentication. This work is a precursor to the deployment of OpenFlow into campus production networks.

Current Capabilities

Intial CS deployment

• One admin domain
• Three HP switches
• FlowVisor with two slices (one production, one research)
• NOX, SNAC, LAVI, and STP

Milestones

• MilestoneDate(OFUWI: S4.a Complete on-campus experimental and production deployment plans for Spiral 4)?
• MilestoneDate(OFUWI: S4.b Upgrade and integrate OpenFlow and GENI aggregate software and firmware)?
• MilestoneDate(OFUWI: S4.c Support regular multisite experiments)?
• MilestoneDate(OFUWI: S4.d "Document, monitor and support the University of Wisconsin aggregates")?
• MilestoneDate(OFUWI: S4.e Demonstrate at least one unique University of Wisconsin contribution)?
