A new open and flexible way to test next-generation (OpenFlow) switches
- 👤 Speaker: Gianni Antichi (University of Cambridge)

Abstract
Despite network monitoring and testing being critical for computer networks, current solutions are both extremely expensive and inflexible. This talk proposes an architecture for an extensible Open-Source Network Tester (OSNT), running on the NetFPGA-10G open-source hardware platform. It also describes the effort to enhance the measurement capabilities of the OFLOPS switch performance evaluation framework. OSNT enhances OFLOPS with sub-μsec precision and 40 Gbps full bi-directional traffic generation and capturing, providing a highly flexible and open platform for OpenFlow experimentation at high data rates.
Series This talk is part of the Computer Laboratory Systems Research Group Seminar series.
