On 29th of April 2022, TeraFlow was presented at the 2nd IFIP/IEEE International workshop on Fully-Flexible Internet Architectures and Protocols for the Next-Generation Tactile Internet (FlexNGIA 2022), collocated with IEEE/IFIP Network Operations and Management Symposium (NOMS2022).
Abstract: Scenarios related to 5G and beyond give rise to a high degree of heterogeneity in terms of applications, services, and user expectations as well as more demanding QoS requirements with an end-to-end scope that can cover multiple operator domains. In this work, we design an inter-domain component that addresses the control plane challenges of establishing such end-to-end connectivity in a scalable, efficient, and automated way.
Demonstration of Zero-touch Device and L3-VPN Service Management Using the TeraFlow Cloud-native SDN Controller
Speakers: Lluis Gifre and Ricard Vilalta, CTTC
Abstract: TeraFlow exploits the IETF L2VPN OSM WIM connector to integrate OSM with the TeraFlow SDN Controller to establish E2E connectivity services.
The OSM Ecosystem Day allowed organizations in the OSM Ecosystem to share about their Open Source MANO experience and how OSM was helping them to achieve their goals. Presentations and demos covered a wide range of aspects from research activities in academia to production deployments and commercial initiatives, many of them focused on 5G and MEC use cases.
Raul Múñoz from CTTC presented the paper "Dynamic Reconfiguration of WDM Virtual Network Topology Over SDM Networks for Spatial Channel Failure Recovery With GRPC Telemetry" at the Optical Networking and Communication Conference & Exhibition - OFC2022.
The paper focuses on demonstrating the dynamic reconfiguration of WDM VNTs in response to SDM spatial channel failures. We present an SDN control architecture with gRPC-telemetry and analytics to detect failures and restore failed virtual WDM links.
In this video, we demonstrate zero-touch device bootstrapping, monitoring, and L3-VPN service management using the novel TeraFlowSDN controller prototype. TeraFlow aims at producing a cloud-native carrier-grade SDN controller offering scalability, extensibility, high-performance, and high-availability features.
The demo was presented at the OFC Demo Zone at the Optical Networking and Communication Conference & Exhibition - OFC2022.
Ricard Vilalta from CTTC and TeraFlow Project Coordinator presented the paper "Architecture to Deploy and Operate a Digital Twin Optical Network" on the 9th of March at 9:45CET at the Optical Networking and Communication Conference & Exhibition - OFC2022.
