Trema's OpenFlow Northbound APIs

The Sliceable Network Management API

The Sliceable Network Management API is Trema's OpenFlow Northbound API to provide an interface for managing virtual layer-2 network slices on OpenFlow.

• [The API specification] (https://github.com/trema/apps/wiki/The-Sliceable-Network-Management-API) ([pdf] (https://github.com/trema/apps/wiki/the_sliceable_api_spec_1.0.pdf))

Implementations

• [Trema sliceable switch] (https://github.com/trema/apps/)

  Trema sliceable switch is an implementation of an OpenFlow controller to provide virtual layer-2 network slices. This is configured by the sliceable network management API.

  • [tutorial] (https://github.com/trema/apps/wiki/sliceable_switch_tutorial)

• Quantum OpenFlow Plugin

  Quantum OpenFlow Plugin provides a function to mediate between OpenStack and OpenFlow controller (Trema sliceable switch, NEC's ProgrammableFlow controller, etc).
