OpenFlow/SDN Activities

• Deploying OpenFlow on AmLight– Switch selection: Coordinating with Internet2, IU,

GPO, RNP and ANSP• Procurement expected in December

• Connecting AmLight to GENI and NDDI initiatives

• Recruiting OpenFlow network engineer• Opportunity for international collaboration

through ACE and other IRNC awardees9

Monitoring of Hybrid Network Services

• Deploying CAIDA’s Coral Reef at AMPATH– Data Collection and Analysis servers ordered– DAG cards ordered– Network engineer assigned

• Working with CAIDA to adapt Coral Reef for AmLight operations environment– Monitoring and reporting hybrid network flows– Adding support for OpenFlow
