A key feature of Software Defined Network is the decoupling of control pane and data plane. Although delivering huge benefits, such a decoupling also brings a new risk: the data plane states (i.e., flow tables) may deviate from the control plane policies. Existing data plane testing tools like Monocle check the correctness of flow tables by injecting probes. However, they are limited in four aspects:...
The OpenFlow paradigm embraces third-party development efforts, and therefore suffers from potential attacks that usurp the excessive privileges of control plane applications (apps). Such privilege abuse could lead to various attacks impacting the entire administrative domain. In this paper, we present SDNShield, a permission control system that helps network administrators to express and enforce...
Software-defined network (SDN) is deemed to enable more dynamic management of data center networks that promptly respond to network events with changes in network policies. Although the SDN controller architecture is increasingly optimized for swift policy updates, the data plane, especially the prevailing TCAM-based flow tables on physical SDN switches, remains unoptimized for fast rule updates,...
Software defined networks provide new opportunities for automating the process of network debugging. Many tools have been developed to verify the correctness of network configurations on the control plane. However, due to software bugs and hardware faults of switches, the correctness of control plane may not readily translate into that of data plane. To bridge this gap, we present VeriDP, which can...
