IETF and IRTF Sample Clauses

IETF and IRTF. 3.4.1 Target Working and Research Groups Standardization activities around the SDN topics are very active in IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) and IRTF (Internet Research Task Force), mostly related to SDN architectures, use-cases and standardization of protocols applicable at the south-bound interface of SDN controllers, beyond the OpenFlow protocol under specification in ONF. IRTF has chartered a Software-Defined Networking Research Group (SDN-RG) [11] in 2013, with the objective of investigating SDN key issues from various perspectives and identify suitable SDN solutions for the short term as well as future research challenges in areas like network modeling and abstraction, scalability and security. Several SDN-based Internet Drafts and RFCs have been recently submitted in IETF, and the activities of several Working Groups are now focusing on a variety of SDN aspects. Some Working Groups (WGs) have been established in the last couple of years with the explicit objective of targeting specific SDN-related areas. Examples are the Interface to the Routing System (I2RS) WG [12] or the Service Function Chaining (SFC) WG [13]. The I2RS WG has the objective of standardizing the interaction with the routing system for programming the Routing Information Base (RIB) in the network devices and extracting information about the network topology following an abstract multi-layer information model including both virtual and physical elements. This is an interesting approach to allow the device programmability with a higher level of granularity if compared to the OpenFlow solution, where the network controllers operate at the routes and policies level instead of the per-flow level. On the other hand, the SFC WG is focusing on architectures and protocols for the instantiation of Service Function Chains. Service functions like firewalls, load balancers or IDS, whether physical or virtualized, are deployed in the network and the traffic is steered along the required Service Function Path. This approach may be of interest at the Data Centre level for the provisioning of cloud services integrating dedicated service functions, as well as for managing the internal traffic. Other less recent WGs are moving their attention to the applicability and the required evolution of the originally targeted technologies to allow their integration in SDN environments. An example is the progress done in the Path Computation Element (PCE) WG [14] towards the definition of a stateful and ...
