    VRP(Versatile Routing Platform):high reliable Network OS

    VRP (Versatile Routing Platform) is a network OS running in IP devices, similar to iOS and Windows.

    VRP is the brain of IP devices which constructs the global network.

    VRP has high reliability which ensures IP network secure and stable operation.

    faster rate of 66 percent CAGR, or twelvefold

    growth between 2010 and 2015

    In 2011, increase rate of e-commerce and video market exceeded 60%.

    By 2015, the global Internet traffic volume will be 4 times the current value and reach

    966EB.

    Traditional NSF

    Disadvantages: Long blackout period, can not

    respond to topology changes

    Need neighbors support GR

    Unable to respond when

    neighbor is busy

    Generally, NSR/NSB

    just support part of

    services

    VRP support full-

    service NSR/NSB

    Disadvantages: If devices need to support

    NSR / NSB, deployment

    of the services which dont support NSR/NSB will be limited

    The services will not be

    protected by NSR/NSB, If they

    dont support NSR / NSB

    So only supporting part of the

    service NSR / NSB will

    reduce the reliability

    Installing a lossless patch can reclaim all leaked

    resources through NSP. All services are not affected

    in the whole process.

    A4NSP for resource leak recovery without any service interruption

    Installing a traditional patch removes only the bug

    itself and cannot reclaim leaked resources because

    of a software error. You need to reset the whole

    service to reclaim the resources, which leads to a

    service interruption.

    Reduce the number of cold patches

    which effect services.

    resources, which affects services.

    Software Defined Network (SDN) Principles

    Centralized control of multi-vendor devicesSDN controller can control any OpenFlow-enabled devices of any vendor. Simplicity and fast development of new featuresProvides a flexible network automation and management framework and API,

    deploys automatically new services, and simplifies the complexity.

    Improved reliability and securitySDN Controller with the entire network view can effectively implement access control, traffic engineering, Qos, security, and other policies.

    More elaborated network controlMulti-tuples-based flow control mode supports multi-tenants and isolates user traffic. Better user experienceResponds to user needs rapidly with open API.

    Long-Term Evolution of SDN/OpenFlow

    Network hardware and software coupled highly and complexly. It was difficult to decouple; Thousands of complex RFC

    formed the industry barriers

    SDN/Openflow need to transform the control mode of existing network.

    Centralized controller need to further enrich and validate functionalities in terms of compatibility/ service abundance/

    reliability / scalability (currently the main controller in industry can only support simple functionalities)

    Openflow protocol itself is immature, still in the stage of rapid development

    Compatible problem with commercial chip, Forwarding performance / capacity / cost is not satisfied

    OF 1.1 : Adds tags/tunnels, multipath, multiple-tables

    OF 1.2 : Wire protocol, IPv6, basic configuration, extensible expression

    OF 1.3 : Topology discovery, test processes, test suites...

    OF 1.4 : Capability discovery, test labs...

    OF 2.0: Revised forwarding model...
