Service Providers are also keen on solving
scaling, migration issues with SDN and
introducing SDN control in their WAN
networks.
We built two other use cases based on
these requirements:
• SDN-IP
• SDN-based WAN control with segment
routing

Our Goal
Demonstrate SDN control of packet optical networks using ONOS
 Add support for multi-layer networks in ONOS
 Write core functions to control multi-layer networks
 Demonstrate a couple of app scenarios
Target Use Case: Prototype BW on Demand using ONOS
 Multi layer topology and resource utilization
 Multi layer Packet and Optical layer control
 Handling of optical layer failures
New Functionality Needed

Implementation on ONOS
ONOS GUI:
• Visualization of Intents
• Visualization of Topology
• Portal Calendaring APP
Topology:
• Multi layer abstraction
• Resource Utilization
Intents:
• Path Computation
• Reservation and
Resource Management
• Path Re-compute on
Failure events
SB API
• Discovery
• OF using experimenter
messages

ONOS used to be confined in his wonderful world,but
wasn’t able to communicate with the outside
ONOS and SDN-IP
One day, SDN-IP came and gave the ability to ONOS
to speak to the rest of the world. ONOS was finally
free!
ONOS and SDN-IP
IP

ONOS started to communicate with IP components
similar to it, speaking a widely used old language, called
BGP.
ONOS and SDN-IP
ONOS “Clusters” started also to “peer” together to be
more efficient and scalable using BGP
SDN-IP for external networks
SDN-IP to connect ONOS clusters

Planned Internet2 deployment
● Provide L3 connectivity between 6 universities around US
o SDN switches in the core
o ONOS and SDN-IP will control the network
● Universities will advertise through a BGP peer a /32 network to the SDN-IP
application
● SDN-IP and ONOS will translate routes into “intents”`
