Data Center Agile Controller Agile Controller is a core component of Huawei's cloud network data center. It provides automatic mapping, resource pooling and visual operation and maintenance from the application to the physical network based on the hierarchical decoupling capability of the industry SDN architecture. Business-centric network business dynamic scheduling capabilities, while supporting the mainstream cloud platform with the industry seamlessly through the standardization of the North-South open and highly reliable cluster load sharing and flexible scalability, allowing customers to their business development, flexible deployment and Scheduling network resources, so that the data center network for cloud services more agile service.
Technical specifications
characteristic | description |
Open architecture |
Based on the model of MD-SAL (Model-Driven Service Abstraction Layer) of the middle adaptation layer, to achieve the north-south interface decoupling; The static binding of the north-south API is released, and the data interaction is completed by the Yang Model defined by the north application and the south device.
|
Multi-scenario fabric network | VLAN networking automatic deployment capability and business automation arrangement; Rich VXLAN deployment capabilities, providing hardware VXLAN centralized / distributed gateways, hardware and software mixed VXLAN centralized gateway and pure soft VXLAN gateway solution; Supports VXLAN Layer 2 interworking, Layer 3 interworking, VXLAN and traditional network interworking.
|
Network automation deployment and business choreography | To provide industry mainstream OpenStack cloud platform docking capability, through the standard Neutron interface, network services from the cloud platform for unified distribution and arrangement, to achieve synergy; Support independent interface network service distribution and arrangement, decoupling with cloud platform; Supports Neutron interface interfacing with OpenStack and extends port security, port QoS and ARP rate limiting. Providing the industry mainstream computing platform VMware vCenter, Microsoft SystemCenter VMM docking, when the virtual machine state changes (such as on-line, off-line, migration), network service resources automatically on-demand dynamic adjustment;
|
Operation and maintenance management | Provide multi-tenant management and management; Providing the network topology based on the physical, logical and application of the tenant; Provide VXLAN scenario, based on VTEP and host real path display; Provide network loop intelligent detection; Provides packet and traffic statistics; Provide ARP-Flood attack defense.
|
Openness |
The northbound interface supports the Restful protocol. South interface supports OpenFlow protocol, OVSDB protocol, NetConf protocol, SNMP protocol;
|
Reliability |
It provides horizontal scalability of up to 64 controller clusters, dynamic expansion of service control nodes and management, and uninterrupted services. The use of distributed database to achieve data slicing storage, data storage on different hosts to synchronize backup;
