4. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 4 Accomplishments 1: Advancing GENI Spiral 2 Goals This work supports the Meso-scale deployment described in Section 7.4 Specifically, we are upgrading key parts of our infrastructure to give researchers connectivity to OpenFlow-enabled switch ports. At GEC8, we participated in the Aster*x demo from Stanford University. Stanford researchers were able to use OpenFlow-connected resources at Princeton as part of a multi-campus demonstration. 08/25/2010

6. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 6 Issues –Concern is the lack of long-term support and commitment to OpenFlow by mainstream vendors. There is a great deal of interest in the vendor community However, we still don't see OpenFlow in deployed product offerings –Current SNAC release only uses lower 48-bits of datapath ID. Consequence is only one OpenFlow entity per HP switch managed by a given instance of SNAC. Developers are aware and working the issue 08/25/2010

7. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 7 Plans What are you plans for the remainder of Spiral 2? –Continue to support the Aster*x demo for GEC9 –Continue to deploy additional OpenFlow-capable switching in our production infrastructure –Continue to develop expertise in OpenFlow so we can migrate existing home-grown tools to OpenFlow. –Continue to grow number of users on our OpenFlow network. The GPO is starting to formulate goals for Spiral 3. What are your thoughts regarding potential Spiral 3 work? –For us, Spiral 3 work will be a continuation of Spiral 2: Continued growth and deployment 08/25/2010
