Modern research and education networks need to solve two major tasks: (1) providing seamless access to their users, and (2) support new scientific and collaborative applications that are becoming increasingly complex and dynamic in their scale, use of distributed resources, and required advanced networking services. Rapid deployment and automation of new network services provisioning is becoming difficult in large networks that incorporate different technologies and solutions. The task of…

ZeroTouch Provisioning (ZTP) Model and Infrastructure Components for Multi-provider Cloud Services Provisioning
TLDR
The paper refers to the previous and legacy research by authors, the Open Cloud eXchange (OCX), that has been proposed to address the last mile problem in cloud services delivery to campuses over trans-national backbone networks such as GEANT.
Network Functions Virtualization: The Long Road to Commercial Deployments
TLDR
This survey provides a detailed background of NFV to establish a comprehensive understanding of the subject, ranging from the basics to more advanced topics, and offers a comprehensive overview of the NFV main concepts, standardization efforts, the benefits, and discussions of theNFV architecture as defined by the European telecommunications standardization institute.
Automation of Network Device Configuration Using Zero-Touch Provisioning - A Case Study
  • I. Šimunić, I. Grgurević
  • Computer Science
    Lecture Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering
  • 2021
TLDR
A case study of implementing the ZTP model on the example of Cisco CSR1000v network device in the local area network and review of the results shows the potential that enables such a solution in networks of much larger scales is evident.
Time-to-Provision Evaluation of IoT Devices Using Automated Zero-Touch Provisioning
TLDR
This paper proposes software-enabled access point (Soft-AP)- and Bluetooth-based ZTP solutions relying only on a single mediator device and evaluates their performances using LOG-A-TEC testbed against manual provisioning in terms of the time required for provisioning (time-to-provision, TTP).
Zero-Touch Provisioning of Distributed Video Analytics in a Software-Defined Metro-Haul Network with P4 Processing
TLDR
Zero-touch provisioning of distributed computing resources at the edge and central office is validated with a video analytics use case and automated network service provisioning and virtual network function orchestration with P4-based VNF acceleration are demonstrated.
AI-Governance and Levels of Automation for AIOps-supported System Administration
TLDR
Several important sub-aspects of the AI-Governance with focus on IT service and infrastructure management are addressed and a set of rules and levels of automation that precisely describe the shared responsibility between human operators and the AIOps-controlled administration are provided.
Automatic provisioning in multi-domain software defined networking
Multi-domain Software Defined Networking (SDN) is the extension of the SDN paradigm to multi-domain networking and the interconnection of different administrative domains. By utilising SDN in the…
Transforming silos to next-generation services
TLDR
The first steps of this transformational process for the research and educational networks are discussed, which provides a new wave of services in a multi-domain partner environment.

Bringing Optical Networks to the Cloud: An Architecture for a Sustainable future Internet
TLDR
An integrated approach is proposed: realizing the convergence of the IT- and optical-network-provisioning models will help bring revenues to all the actors involved in the value chain and ensure a sustainable future Internet/Cloud enabling demanding and ubiquitous applications to coexist.
Open Cloud eXchange (OCX): Architecture and Functional Components
  • Y. Demchenko, J. Ham, E. Escalona
  • Computer Science
    2013 IEEE 5th International Conference on Cloud Computing Technology and Science
  • 2013
TLDR
The proposed OCX concept will leverage the existing Internet eXchange and GLIF Open Light path Exchange solutions and practices, adding specific functionality that will simplify inter-CSP and customer infrastructure integration when supporting basic cloud services provisioning models, in particular Trusted Third Party (TTP) services to allow federated infrastructure and access control.
Open Cloud eXchange (OCX): A Pivot for Intercloud Services Federation in Multi-provider Cloud Market Environment
TLDR
The paper reports about results and experiences learnt from the recent OCX demonstrations at the SC14 Exhibition in November 2014 that demonstrated the benefits of an OCX enabled Intercloud infrastructure for running data intensive real-time cloud applications on top of the advanced GEANT multi-gigabit network.
Intercloud Architecture Framework for Heterogeneous Multi-Provider Cloud based Infrastructure Services Provisioning
TLDR
The proposed architecture is intended to provide an architectural model for developing Intercloud middleware and in this way will facilitate clouds interoperability and integration.
Federated Access Control in Heterogeneous Intercloud Environment: Basic Models and Architecture Patterns
TLDR
The proposed federated access control model uses Federated Identity Management (FIDM) model that can be also supported by the trusted third party entities such as Cloud Service Broker and/or trust broker to establish dynamic trust relations between entities without previously existing trust.
Challenges of Implementing Network Management Solution
  • U. Rao
  • Computer Science, Engineering
  • 2011
TLDR
The tools and solutions available for network management, challenges involved in implementing network management solutions and also a simple solution for a pro-active network management solution is proposed that was tested by implementing in a large enterprise.
Future Network Architectures
TLDR
The document is meant to serve as an introduction for NRENs to possible new solutions and technologies and to provide guidelines as to how these could be implemented from an architectural point of view, and does not intend to propose or advocate for a single “fit-all” solution for the GÉANT/NREN network as a whole.
