1 Why Do We Need Open Router Platforms? Panel at ANCS Workshop, Dec 3-4, 2007 Charles R. Kalmanek Kobus van der Merwe Internet & Network Systems Research AT&T Labs
2 Page 2 What do we mean by an Open Router.. Network programmability Any change in network layer functionality or in the way the network is operated Co-location of third-party functions on blades integrated in routers ( edge intelligence ) Platform allowing third party code to be executed on the router Programming bare metal? API s for standard libraries? Both control plane and data plane? What degree of protection?
3 Page 3 Is there a case for network programmability? Haven t we tried this before and failed? Open Signaling initiative in ATM community DARPA Active Networking program in late 90 s Why? Divergent viewpoints of problem to be solved Technical challenges too hard (poor performance, security risks, etc.) Business model Position: Single most pressing problem facing service providers: Difficult to quickly and safely deploy new services Will open routers help?
4 Page 4 Why is service deployment hard? Lack of vendor support Specialized needs falling off the implementation roadmap Impact on existing services Networks are inherently shared Protocol dependencies Stringent availability and reliability requirements Support systems Ordering and provisioning systems Including change management Billing systems Network/service assurance systems Alarming and rules engines Performance monitoring Capacity management tools Customer databases/portals
5 Page 5 Can Network Programmability help? Lack of vendor support Network programmability could help significantly Opportunity for service provider differentiation Impact on existing services Third party code might make things worse Partitioning through virtualization? Support systems Potential to simplify some development / deployment challenges E.g., adaptation functions E.g., measurement data
6 Page 6 What Do We Mean by Virtualization? Slices and slivers Subset of network resources (links/nodes/subnets) plus management framework Commercial network virtualization solutions already exist Network / link virtualization E.g., Cisco MPLS Carrier in Carrier Control plane virtualization E.g., Each Juniper logical router performs independent routing tasks Transport substrate E.g., dynamic bandwidth services Etc. 6PE VPLS Service Manager MPLS EoMPLS MPLS L3VPN IPv4/v6 Border Router
7 Page 7 Example Network Services Network Aware Server Migration Example cross-layer-aware service Control plane Service Aware Network Monitoring Support system Data plane (monitoring) Many Other Ideas Robust framework for hitless upgrades and incremental deployment Meta-management plane Application/customer specific control planes Application Load Balancing Etc.
8 Page 8 MigrationNet - Operation Data Center A PSa VSa Migration Software Data Center B PSb VSa Physical Server (PS) Virtual Server (VS) PEa PEb PEc PEd Server virtualization technologies have made live server migration a reality Approach currently limited to local area environment because no network support exist in wide area Potentially valuable tool for handling planned/unplanned outages
9 Page 9 MigrationNet - Operation cont Data Center A PSa VSa Data Center B PSb VSa Physical Server (PS) Virtual Server (VS) PEa PEb PEc PEd Once server migration is complete, optimize routing Network Programmability: Needed for the real-time, application controlled switchover of traffic to new data center
10 Page 10 Service-aware network monitoring E.g., IPTV National Backbone Probe Regional Network Metro Network Fiber Node Probe Central Office Greenfield FTTP Super Hub Ofices (SHO) Video Hub Office (VHO) Fiber Center Or Intermediate Office Copper Node IPTV is bandwidth intense service that is sensitive to network impairments Commercial deployments involve many moving parts Ensure end-to-end service and/or root cause analysis, need flexible monitoring anywhere along the path E.g., what is the video quality for a particular stream when it enters/leaves/traverses the north-east regional network? Overbuild FTTN State of the art: statically deploy flexible (programmable) probes in network Problems: slow (deployment), expensive, coverage (always in wrong place)
11 Page 11 Service-aware network monitoring B A C D What is the video quality for a particular stream when it enters/leaves/traverses the north-east regional network? Being able to deploy custom network monitoring code at relevant node(s)/interface(s) in the network E.g., suppose flow of interest traverse A-D-C Network monitoring application: Determine appropriate nodes (A,D,C) Instantiate appropriate monitoring software Report video quality per probe point Network Programmability:Need per-interface, programmable, Might require more than one probe point per device E.g., say node D is problematic, deploy probe on incoming and outgoing interfaces network monitoring capabilities
12 Page 12 Summary There is a case for open routers to allow service providers to customize network functionality, independent of vendor implementation roadmap There is more to it than just adding new protocols and functions: Because networks are shared, strong support for virtualization is needed to protect existing services Right abstraction (or abstractions) remains an open question Should make some problems with support systems easier Vendor support is needed to make this a success Open routers is a different business model (selling an SDK rather than a box) This is an opportunity for differentiation for router vendors
