SDN Shim: Controlling Legacy Devices

Document Type

Conference Proceeding

Abstract

We propose a design to aid experimentation with SDN architectures using legacy network equipment. We implement a portion of the design on an FPGA and evaluate throughput and latency. Results indicate viability for testbed and research environments, especially with proposed additions to further reduce latency in broadcast- and multicast-heavy traffic.
