Virtual routing platforms allow carriers to take advantage of virtualization benefits while supporting SDN and NFV initiatives. They aim to provide carrier-grade routing functions with performance comparable to physical routers, using the same management systems and consistent behaviors. Virtual platforms are well-suited for new applications where physical routers cannot meet needs, and allow flexible, on-demand scaling and lower costs than physical routers. Both physical and virtual platforms have strengths and can form blended networks, with services placed based on requirements. Virtual platforms open new approaches to network design and service delivery.

Disrupting Telecom: the Evolution of NFV - by Sean Chen @ IEEE Mobile Cloud 2015Sean Chen
*** Presented at IEEE Mobile Cloud 2015 ***
It might still be debatable on how much NFV (Network Functions Virtualization) can save on the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO); however, the disappearing hardware barrier is undoubtedly offering tremendous opportunities that lead to innovations thought impossible just a few years ago. In addition to the benefits of elasticity and flexibility, NFV empowers network operators with mobility of networks infrastructure. The more interesting challenge is how NFV can be leveraged to deliver more economic value and richer options to enterprise and end users like you and me, and how it can open a door to vast amount of ingenious ICT developers that will help monetize the challenge. We are going to share some of our findings in this presentation.

Intel Network Builders Summit: Key Lessons from an advanced multi-vendor NFV ...Kiran Sirupa
A leading Tier-1 Operator in APAC was evaluating new technologies to deliver enhanced managed network services for its Enterprise customers. With the growth in the demand for these services driven by the region’s growing consumption of web-based content and applications, the full-fledged telecommunications company embarked on an initiative to enhance the capacity and capabilities of its managed network services, with the aim of positioning itself as the best-in-class provider of next-generation cloud data center services.
As part of this transformation, the Operator identified NFV-based intelligent service orchestration, leveraging SDN and NFV technologies to pioneer the development of a portfolio of managed network services and invited vendors to participate in a Proof of Concept (PoC) to validate solutions that will be able to deliver these capabilities.
In response to the initiative, Anuta Networks in collaboration with the Tier-1 Operator, HPE and Logicalis, a leading IT solutions and managed services provider, conducted a PoC that saw the company validating the first end-to-end Managed Network Service Delivery using the IETF YANG Modeling Framework.
The PoC saw the deployment of Anuta Networks' NFV Orchestrator and VNF Lifecycle Manager - Anuta NCX - which provides carrier-grade NFV orchestration for instantiating, managing, and chaining Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) in accordance to IETF’s Management and Orchestration (MANO) guidelines. HPE provided the NFVI including Helion OpenStack, HP Compute, HPE Virtual Router (VRS) and HPE DCN SDN (OEM version of ALU Nuage VSP) controller.
First of its kind, the highly successful PoC demonstrated capabilities of Anuta Networks via its NCX solution to deliver carrier-grade NFV orchestration while dynamically and intelligently provisioning computing, storage and networking resources to enable the Tier 1 Operator to efficiently deliver next-generation cloud services to clients across the region.

Tech Talk by John Casey (CTO) CPLANE_NETWORKS : High Performance OpenStack Ne...nvirters
OpenStack is HOT! No doubt about it. A recent survey by The New Stack and The Linux Foundation shows OpenStack as the most popular open source project ahead of other hot projects like Docker and KVM. OpenStack is now taking its rightful place as the open source cloud solution for enterprises and service providers.
To date OpenStack networking has not yet achieved the performance, scalability and reliability that many large enterprises demand. CPLANE NETWORKS solves that problem by delivering secure multi-tenant virtual networking that overcomes the limitations of the standard Neutron networking service. By making all networking services local to the compute node and achieving near line-rate throughput, CPLANE NETWORKS Dynamic Virtual Networks (DVN) delivers mega-scale networking for the most demanding application environments.
In this session John Casey will cover the basics of DVN and explain how CPLANE NETWORKS achieves "at scale" network performance within and across data centers.

Come sfruttare al meglio la sinergia tra Kemp LoadMaster e il prodotti VMware
http://vinfrastructure.it/it/2015/10/webinar-kemp-lm-e-vmware-vsphere-la-sinergia-perfetta/
Faced with the dual threats of rising operating costs and declining revenues, network service providers are increasingly turning to network functions virtualization (NFV) to help them keep up with constantly changing market conditions.
In a virtualized Telco environment, service providers can deploy and deliver new network functions, services and capacity on demand—reducing normal rollout time from months and weeks to just hours.
Leveraging the principles of cloud computing, network service providers can deliver a level of responsiveness never before available, easily scaling capacity up or down to meet the evolving needs of their subscribers.
The result is a highly agile system that allows new revenue-generating services to be quickly developed, exhaustively tested and selectively rolled out to targeted groups in a fraction of the time and at a much lower cost than previously thought possible.
In this session, the speaker will present how the solution from Juniper networks look like and how it can be deployed by service provider to improve their agility in delivering services to their customers.
Network operators’ networks comprises of wide variety of hardware appliances. In a big and globally distributed network; the network would comprise of multi-vendor equipment and variety of proprietary services offered by the vendor.

Carrier-grade-virtual-platform-use-case
1. Physical or Virtual?
Carrier grade virtual routing platform use cases
Sheryl Zhang, Juniper Networks
March. 20, 2015
2. Motivations
• Classical carrier routing platforms get virtualized with motivations of:
• Taking advantage of the benefits from virtualization
• Sharing the vision and supporting the key industry initiatives of SDN & NFV
3. Expectations
Goals
Share vision of SDN/NFV
Support for traditional services
Co-exist and easy integration in a
hybrid network (physical & virtual)
Operational simplicity

Highly available
Execution
Comply with the SDN/NFV solution and architecture specification;
Carrier grade routing functions & maximum performance possible
with x86 server;
Supported by existing EMS/NMS/OSS&BSS, protocol support &
interoperability across network elements (multi protocols, multi-
vendors)
Minimum change in functions and behaviour between physical &
virtual platform, to reduce optional overhead like training or
operation system adjustments
Leverage decade of network SW development experience, apply
mature network software and standardized protocols to ensure
Apply carrier grade routing SW and proven network HA practice,
plus resilience/availability defined in NFVI specification
4. Virtualized carrier grade routing platforms
• Carrier grade routing features:
• Sophisticated routing, IP/MPLS, service support
• Complete feature parity and function consistency
between physical and virtual platforms;
• Leverage the same EMS/NMS
• Scalability and performance:
• High throughput 100M~100Gbps, &beyond?
• High control plane plane scale & performance
• Mature software
• Minimize the change in network software
development to maximize the benefit of
leveraging decade of SW development experience
5. Virtual platform is a new tool to the providers
• Physical and virtual are two options to the providers
• Common way of thinking regarding use cases is to look at the existing functions in the
network and try to place the virtual in the role where the physical platform stands, but
wait..., is that all?
• Before we draw conclusion on where and how to use the tools, or even think of
replacing one with another, it is important to first have a close look at the tools’
characteristics & capabilities

7. Physical vs. Virtual
Physical Virtual
High throughput, high density Flexibility to reach higher scale in control plane and
service plane
Guarantee of SLA Agile, quick to start
Low power consumption per throughput Low power consumption per control plan and service
Scale up Scale out
Higher entry cost in $ and longer time to deploy Lower entry cost in $ and shorter time to deploy
Distributed or centralized model Optimal in centralized cloud-centric deployment
Well development network mgmt system, OSS/BSS Same platform mgmt as Physical, plus same VM
mgmt as a SW on server in the cloud
Variety of network interfaces for flexibility Cloud centric, Ethernet-only
Excellent price per throughput ratio Ability to apply “pay as you grow” model
Each option has its own strength, and it is
created with different focus

• Carrier grade VPN service on virtual &
physical
• Quick to start a value-added service, no
dedicated HW, one click to launch
• Shorten service qualification time w/
independence from established infra
• On-demand instant scale w/ scale out model
• Lower TCO with cloud centric approach
• Expect service w/ different
service SLA tier
• Increase service coverage to
large number of users
• Scale service without scarifying precious
resource (like VRF) on physical box
• No service touch point on HW PE which
carries important VPN customers
• Lower risk in error, improve SLAL3 CPE

Choice of Service
placement point
• Virtual or Physical, you can have both, and two platforms can form a seamless
blend to provide the same service but for different purpose;
• You can get the best of two worlds by using them wisely based on the strength
of each platform;
• The placement of services can be directed by higher level service orchestration
controllers based on the service requirements; It can be an one-time initiation
or dynamically changed on-demand;
• Virtual platform is a new tool, allow us to think differently & build the
network differently to solve a technical or business issue in a whole new
approach
12. Virtual DC GW overlay for service scaling
Scale Service chaining with a DC GW overlay when VRF(s) are mapped to service chains
With a overlay model using virtual platform, along w/ cloud centric scale-out model, there is a new
way to scale the services

• Service chains are
mapped to VRF(s)
• Typically there is a limit
of the # of vrf per box
Overall service chain (VRFs)
are distributed across vGW
for large scale
Physical GW handles high
volume traffic to DC, along
with specific VRF traffic for SLA
or throughput reason;
13. Improve operational efficiency & accelerate
service delivery time
Proof of concept, lab validation & SW certification • 100% mirroring between physical &
virtual platform (control plane, data
plane, AND software releases)
• Ideal to support
• Proof of Concept lab
• New service configuration/operation
preparation
• SW release validation
• Training lab for operational team
• Troubleshoot environment
• Immediate benefit to current network
deployment, significantly shorten the
service delivery time
• CAPEX or OPEX reduction for lab
• Quick launch & scale

14. Virtual Route Reflector
• vRR can be used as Route Reflector and deployed the same way as the physical RR in the network
• vRR can act as both vRR or any typical router function with forwarding capability

15. More use cases? The limit is our imagination
• Virtual platform is one more tool for network provider, and the use cases
are up to users to define
VPC GW for private,
public and hybrid cloud
Virtual Route Reflector
NFV plug-in for multi-
function consolidation
SW certification, lab validation, network
planning & troubleshooting, proof of concept

16. Summary
• A carrier grade virtual routing platform allows the continuous support of revenue-
generating services and network innovations down the road through
• Comprehensive network functions, superior performance, consistent function & behaviour with
physical platform, plus mature software
• In terms of deployment cases, virtual or physical, we can have both; to get the best of
two worlds, we should use them wisely based on the strength of each platform;
• Virtual platform is a new tool, and it allows us to think differently & build the network
differently to address both technical issues & business demands;
