Abstract:
Software Defined Networks (SDN) provide a way to virtualize and
abstract the network in order to present virtual or abstract
resources to third-party applications running in software.
Applications can utilize a programmable interface to receive these
virtual or abstract resource descriptions in a form that allows
monitoring or manipulation of resources within the network. The
Interface to the Routing System (I2RS) provides an interface directly
to the routing System to monitor best paths to any destination or
change routes in the routing information base (RIB) or MPLS Label
Information Base (LIB). The I2RS interfaces may be combined with
other interfaces to the forwarding plane (ForCES (RFC3746)), device
configuration (NETCONF), or mid-level/peer-to-peer (ALTO, draft-ietf-
alto-protocol) system to create these virtual pathways.
This document outlines how SDN networks can use the I2RS interface to
implement an automated set of network services for the Virtual
Connection on Demand (VCoD) and Virtual Network on Demand (VNoD).
These systems provide service routing a better way to create paths
within a hub and spoke environment, and provide service routing the
ability to create pathways based on service.
