Networking: From Projects to Platforms: Networking: From Projects to Platforms
- Claudio Allocchio (GARR)
Description
Production Services quite often originate from projects where they have been developed, tested, and taken to maturity level. In this session we will describe 3 cases, all originated from GN4-3 activities, which are now approaching their readiness to become services that available for the GÉANT community. We will highlight different approaches to service delivery from toolsets, to labs to full service.
The talk plans to report the outcome of our more systematic evaluation of INT-based UDP flow monitoring on NRENs networks. A summary of the overall experience in data plane programming and challenges will be reported.
The cost and complexity of buying or developing and integrating in-house network management solutions may be too high for many organizations. GÉANT Network Management as a Service (NMaaS, https://nmaas.eu) aims to support smaller NRENs, campuses, organisations or distributed research projects by providing an effective, efficient, and secure cloud-based network and service management platform....
GP4L stands for GÉANT P4 Lab. As its name implies, it is a lab infrastructure that encompasses vanilla P4 switch hardware interconnected by path provided by GÉANT network. GP4L has 2 objectives:
- It is primarily used to validate the software code inherently part of RARE/freeRtr open source routing stack
- It is a service that is under development with the aim to provide experimental...
