Public and Private Clouds Obscure your View of the Network. For Better or Worse? |
|
|
|
Discussing requirements and challenges placed on the network and the service providers that offer these services, as well as some possible solutions requiring shifts in network operations and management, as well as possible network (re)design.

Empirical Analysis of Multicast Applications in MPLS/BGP Virtual Private Network |
|
|
|
Presenting the results of an empirical analysis of MPLS/BGP Multicast Virtual Private Networks (MVPNs) in an existing production deployment. Due to the growth of VPN multicast traffic, it is extremely important to understand how organizations and enterprises are using multicast. Without this information, it is impossible to know how the multicast transmission in VPN will impact service provider networks over the years.

MPLS as an Enabler of Cloud Computing? |
|
|
|
Gartner forecast that “through 2013 at least 60% of enterprises will experience slow or inconsistent application performance issues from externally hosted applications, due to improper network design.” As they embrace the cloud, large enterprises need to evolve their MPLS VPN to a cloud-ready network using new design options and more intelligent, application aware, technologies.

Using Entropy Labels with RSVP-TE |
|
|
|
MPLS tunnels come in two flavors: single-path point-to-point or point-to-multipoint tunnels with traffic engineering (signaled using RSVP-TE), and multi-path multipoint-to-point tunnels signaled with LDP. One offers TE, the other Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP). Why can't one have both?
Introducing the idea of « Entropy labels », and showing how they can be used in conjunction with multi-path RSVP-TE.

Cloud Aware IP/MPLS Networking |
|
|
|
Describing how new technologies, such as ALTO, are enabling application and service aware IP/MPLS networks to meet the challenges of service such as cloud computing, with use cases illustrating how they are practically used in Service Provider networks to ensure SLAs can be met, whilst making efficient use of network capacity.

Path Computation Elements, OpenFlow and the Centralized Control Plane |
|
|
|
Examining the technical challenges in detail, and highlighting how a centralized control plane based on PCE and/or OpenFlow can help operators to solve many of their real-world problems. Giving an update on the standards and the state of current implementations.

Virtual Subnet (VS): A Scalable Data Center Interconnection Solution |
|
|
|
Describing the Virtual Subnet solution using BGP/MPLS IP VPN technology [RFC4364] with some extensions, together with some other proven technologies including ARP proxy [RFC925][RFC1027] to provide a much scalable IP-only L2VPN service across a MPLS/IP backbone, which can be used for interconnecting data centers in a much scalable way.
