FIBRE on AmLight
The document discusses the evolution and current state of FIBRE, a large-scale Future Internet testbed spanning Brazil and Europe. FIBRE originally aimed to design, implement, and validate a shared testbed for experimentation. It now includes 10 nodes in Brazil and 3 in Europe. The testbed is federating internationally and within Brazil to support more experimental projects. It interconnects to networks in Europe and the US through virtualized slices on production OpenFlow backbones at RNP in Brazil and AmLight in the US. This allows experimental facilities while maintaining production network stability and availability.

- 2. Evolution of FIBRE:a large-scale Future Internet testbed facility • Original objective: design, implement and validate a shared large-scale testbed to support experimental research in Future Internet. • Studies began in 2008, inspired by GENI (USA) and by the FIRE (Future Internet Research and Experimentation) program of the EU • Funding provided 2011-2014 through the 2010 1st Coordinated Call in ICT between Brazil and the EU, supporting a single FI testbed project, FIBRE (FI testbed/experimentation between Brazil and Europe). • FIBRE includes 10 nodes in Brazil and 3 in the EU. The follow-on FIBRE2 project is being funded in Brazil to support the operation, maintenance and expansion of the existing testbed, for use by the approved project on “experimental platforms” selected in the 2014 3rd CC. • On-going conversations were initiated in 2013 to promote the international federation of the FI testbeds, including FIBRE.

Technical details andissues • Interconnection solutions • RNP backbone: slice of dedicated OpenFlow switches interconnected through L2VPNs (MPLS+QinQ) over a non-OpenFlow backbone • AmLight backbone: slice of a production SDN backbone of virtualized Brocade OpenFlow switches • Production vs Experimentation mindset • How to provide the same features and experience of a dedicated experimental facility but keeping the stability and availability of a production environment? • FIBRE slices on production OpenFlow Switches • Packtins (Reactive mode) are disabled on AmLight switches • Specific flows wre installed per slice to restore reactive behavior • FlowVisor Topology Discovery service required untagged LLDP packets using reactive mode of OpenFlow • Layer 2 Tunnels vs SDN virtualization • Moving the overhead from the data to the control plane
