    加州桑尼維爾 - 2014年10月14日 - 思博倫通信公司將在10月14-17日在德國杜塞爾多夫進行的SDN&OpenFlow世界大會的ONF SDN解決方案展示區進行現場演示,與SDN/ OpenFlow的業界成員共同來驗證OpenFlow的基礎設施的規模和性能。  思博倫將測試SDN/OpenFlow的拓撲以確認其是否可以提供部署基於SDN服務的規模,而讓最終用戶不用擔心網絡的服務質量(QoS)或體驗質量(QoE)。

     

    思博倫通信的的雲計算和IP解決方案總監,Neil Holmquist說軟件定義網絡,簡化了網絡管理,提高了服務質量,提供了前所未有的靈活性來管理和開通新服務。不過,它使用單一集中控制器也引入了漏洞,而且新的虛擬交換機也使網絡管理員對SDN感到不安,如果沒有在最高的網路流量下進行測試。為了驗證SDN控制器和交換機是否支持最終用戶所需要的真實世界的規模,思博倫(Spirent)正領先在幾個ONF測試平台上進行真實的高性能,高規模的檢測。

     

    思博倫與Real-Status公司合作來模擬SDN交換機,以便檢驗SDN控制器的規模和性能,並提供了一個高擴展性的,多維的,360度的可目視的畫面來檢視網絡拓撲和性能狀態。使用Spirent TestCenter和Real-Status公司的Hyperglance管理工具來檢測其擴展性能力,並同時輕鬆地標示擁塞鏈路。思博倫與Real-Status公司聯手通過OpenFlow交換機,以提供必要的大規模和雲端級流量的實際測試。這將提供容易地可目視、監視和調整網絡基礎設施以便在部署上線之前了解其在最大規模的即時的能力。

     

    思博倫也參與了Netronome公司和Advantech公司對於OpenFlow在高速和高容量的能力的展示。使用思博倫的OpenFlow控制器仿真工具和East/West流量的產生,Spirent將展示Netronome的FlowNic的Flow Capacity, 以及Advantech的OpenFlow交換機的性能。 Spirent TestCenter將被用於模擬大型SDN網絡的流量模式,同時產生大量Flows到Switch的Flow Table。

     

     

    Spirent puts SDN/OpenFlow Performance and Scale to the Test

    Oct 14, 2014

    Spirent joins industry experts to test OpenFlow switches and controllers at the ONF SDN Solution Showcase at SDN & OpenFlow World Congress

     

    Sunnyvale, Calif. – October 14, 2014 – Spirent Communications has teamed with members of the SDN/OpenFlow ecosystem to validate the scale and performance of an OpenFlow infrastructure. Live demonstrations will be conducted at the ONF SDN Solution Showcase during the SDN & OpenFlow World Congress, October 14 – 17 in Düsseldorf, Germany. Spirent will be testing the readiness of SDN/OpenFlow topologies to see if they can deliver the scale needed to confidently deploy SDN based services without risking the Quality of Service (QoS) of the network or Quality of Experience (QoE) for end users.

     

    “Software-defined networking simplifies network management, improves quality of service and offers unprecedented agility to manage and turn-up new services,” said Neil Holmquist, Senior Director of Product Marketing and Management for Cloud and IP Solutions at Spirent Communications. “However, it introduces vulnerability with a single centralized controller, and the new virtual switches make network managers uneasy about going live with SDN without testing at full scale with heavy traffic. To validate the readiness of SDN controllers and switches to support real-world scale needed by end-users, Spirent is leading the way in realistic high performance, high scale testing in several ONF test beds.”

     

    Spirent is partnering with Real Status to emulate the SDN switches in order to test the scale and performance of the SDN controller and provide a highly scalable, multidimensional, 360-degree visualization of the network topology and performance status. Using Spirent TestCenter and the Real Status Hyperglance management tool, the test measures the controllers ability to scale while easily identifying the congested links. Spirent and Real Status have teamed up to provide the necessary massive scale and realistic testing of cloud level traffic via OpenFlow switches. This will provide the ability to easily visualize, monitor, and tune how the network infrastructure performs at full scale, in real-time, prior to deploying in production.

     

    Spirent is also joining forces with Netronome and Advantech to demonstrate OpenFlow’s ability to work at high rates and capacity. With Spirent’s OpenFlow Controller Emulation and East/West traffic generation, we will show how the FlowNic from Netronome will aide in Flow Capacity and Performance of the Advantech OpenFlow switch. Spirent TestCenter will be used to simulate the demanding traffic patterns of a large-scale SDN network while pushing a large volume of flows to the switches flow-table.
