Virtual Networks
Pluralistic Approach for the Next Generation of Internet
herausgegeben von Otto Carlos M. B. Duarte und Guy PujolleThe first chapter of this title concerns virtualizationtechniques that allow sharing computational resources basically, slicing a real computational environment into virtual computationalenvironments that are isolated from one another.
The Xen and OpenFlow virtualization platforms are then presented inChapter 2 and a performance analysis of both is provided. Thischapter also defines the primitives that the network virtualizationinfrastructure must provide for allowing the piloting plane tomanage virtual network elements.
Following this, interfaces for system management of the twoplatforms are proposed in Chapter 3. To control and manage virtualnetwork elements, five primitives that the network virtualizationinfrastructure must provide are defined: instantiate, delete, migrate, monitor and set.
The book then moves on to survey existing control algorithms forvirtual networking. It also describes the main challenges forpacket forwarding using Xen as a virtualization tool and describes, in more detail, a proposal for local control of virtual networks. Within each physical node, this proposal guarantees the servicelevel acquired by each virtual network, even in the presence ofmisbehaving virtual networks.
