Openflow

Josef Ungerman, CCIE

Stanford Clean Slate led to the development of…

Four parts to Openflow

Central Administra.on and Opera.ons point for Network Elements Openflow Controller

Openflow Device Agent Agent runs on the network device Agent receives instruc.ons from Controller Agent programs device tables

Openflow Protocol Openflow Protocol is… “A mechanism for the Openflow Controller to communicate with Openflow Agents…”

Important lesson for today…

Openflow does not equal SDN Openflow So\ware Defined Networking Openflow is one flavor of SDN

Openflow Protocol Versions

  • Openflow 1.

Openflow v1. Data Data Data

FLOW
TABLE
SWITCH FORWARDING
ENGINE

Fields from packet header used for lookup key ** CPU **Openflow 1.0 supports a lookup into a single flow table Lookup Key Header fields used to build lookup key

Switch

Openflow v1.

ENGINE
OPENFLOW CONTROLLER

If no match, Controller programs switch flow table CPU Data Data Data
