Folks, I am sorry for spamming all these lists. You are being spammed because you are a cousin of ForCES.
We are planning to have a ForCES based NFV/SDN PoC demonstration at the Bits and Bites event on Thursday night (1845-2100 at the Concert Hall). Given it is very hard to give a lot of details in the demo, Evangelos Haleplidis will present more details at the ForCES meeting Monday 15:20 at the Manitoba room. The official blurb is as follows: ------ SANA will demonstrate the proof-of-concept of the applicability of IETF's ForCES framework for both NFV management and SDN control. The ForCES data model will be utilized to describe VNFs, services and the infrastructure definition in a clear, formal and concise approach. The protocol will illustrate SDN control and NFV management of all modelled elements. The setup includes various NFV/SDN entities controlled and managed by the ForCES architecture execute under a singular simple programmatic API regardless of whether they are virtual or physical. The separation of hardware and software is illustrated by the same NF LFB data models implemented in: a)KVM virtual machines, b) Linux containers, c) linux kernel proper and d) ASIC based L2/3 (Broadcom chipset) in white box switches all working in unison. Infrastructure orchestration includes instantiating VMs, containers, applications and setup of basic network connectivity using appropriate ForCES LFBs. Service orchestration is again modelled by ForCES LFBs and both control and management activities for the services are driven by the ForCES protocol. We will illustrate 3GPP S/PGW simple connectivity (NAT-based) service and the advantages gained from (SDN) separating the datapath components of S/PGW from the control as well as (NFV) separation of hardware from software. This PoC is further illustrated in: http://nfvwiki.etsi.org/index.php?title=ForCES_Applicability_for_NFV_and_integrated_SDN -------- Apologies again for the mass email. cheers, jamal _______________________________________________ i2rs mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/i2rs
