Network Function Virtualization in Software Defined Optical Transport Networks Yongli Zhao State Key Laboratory of Information Photonics and Optical Communications, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), Beijing 100876, China Tel : +86-10 Email: yonglizhao@bupt.edu.cn; Web: ipoc.bupt.edu.cn Group Meeting, June 17, 2016 Outline  NFV enabled software defined multi-domain optical networks  Procedure of vNF call and return  NFV enabled optical transport node architecture  Parallel processing method for NFV enabled OTN nodes  Conclusion Page 2 What is Network Functions Virtualization (NFV)? Network Functions Virtualization aims to transform the way that network operators architect networks by evolving standard IT virtualization technology to consolidate many network equipment types onto industry standard high volume servers, switches and storage, which could be located in Datacenters, Network Nodes and in the end user premises. Network Functions Virtualization – Introductory White Paper Page 3 Benefits of Network Functions Virtualization  Reduced equipment costs and reduced power consumption through consolidating equipment and exploiting the economies of scale of the IT industry.  Increased velocity of Time to Market by minimizing the typical network operator cycle of innovation.  Targeted service introduction based on geography or customer sets is possible. Services can be rapidly scaled up/down as required.  Enabling a wide variety of eco-systems and encouraging openness.
