On-Demand Allocation of Control Plane Functions via SDN/NFV for Monitoring-enabled Flexi-grid Optical Networks with Programmable BVTs

  • 1. Centre Tecnològic de Telecomunicacions de Catalunya (CTTC)

Description

A modular SDN architecture for flexi-grid networks, relying on the NFV framework, allows on-demand allocation and composition of virtualized control plane functions into instances, in a cost effective way. We demonstrate its use in the adaptive control of BVTs.
