1 ENOS: a Network Opera/ng System for ESnet Testbed Eric Pouyoul (lomax@es.net) Technology Exchange Cleveland, Ohio, September 2015

2 Is ESnet really developing Yet Another Network Opera:ng System (YANOS)? Well, yes, sorry, but we had to! Focus on: Security Resource sharing (mul/- applica/ons) design panerns ODL, ONOS, other were not available at the /me. ESnet traffic is not typical. Not a controller (does not implement one) Will leverage any WAN, produc/on quality controller Co- design with hardware and network 2

3 ENOS Architecture REST API, Portal Layer 2 services MulEPoint L2 VPN Layer 3 SDX Netshell security, core services, API, SSHD Network Services Drivers Topology, NSI, OSCARS, Stats, Tests perfsonar, SNMP, Sampling Controller Drivers ODL, ONOS, 3 Database Immediately or eventually consistent VM Driver Linux containers (libvirt)

4 Netshell Design ENOS Services ENOS Modules Netshell Bundles, Python Karaf OSGi Java Virtual Machine 4

5 ENOS and SoKware Technologies Java Virtual Machine (JVM) for a produc/on- ready environment ENOS security leverages Java Security Manager Performance Python for rapid so^ware development Useful for experiments, quick prototyping The natural language of ENOS ENOS integrates Jython, a Python 2.7 interpreter running in the JVM. OSGi, Karaf for module, applica/on management. OpenDaylight for controlling SDN devices 5

12 ESnet SDN Testbed Node Logical View Services VM So^ware switch and Services VM paired with every hardware switch. Most flows only pass through hardware switch (green) Flows requiring special handling go through so^ware switch (blue), possibly to Services VM (red). Hardware switch provides performance, stability So^ware switch and service VM provide flexibility, without compromising reliability

14 ENOS Roadmap Year 1 ( ) Ini/ally only a proof of concept Focus Future ScienceDMZ Year 2 ( ) LBL funding (LDRD) Working prototype Mul/ple point VPN for high performance flows Year 3 ( ) Deploy semi- produc/on mul/point VPN with traffic engineering. Support research projects: security, intent based networking, Open Source by Spring

15 Lessons Learned and Summary Java + Python + SSHD is very powerful and yet simple combina/on. Aggrega/ng, grooming and normalizing data such as topology simplifies greatly network aware applica/ons. OSGI/Karaf allows us to painlessly change ODL version, ONOS, other OSGi based controller/applica/ons. Security is not trivial, especially when using third party so^ware: we needed to turn off security in order to use ODL. Will be open sourced very soon. A network operaeng system does really look like a computer operaeng system. Perhaps Linux itself could be the execueon environment for network policies. 15
