Opportunistic resilience embedding (ORE): Toward cost-efficient resilient virtual networks

摘要

Network Virtualization promotes the development of new architectures and protocols by enabling the creation of multiple virtual networks on top of the same physical substrate. One of its main advantages is the use of isolation to limit the scope of attacks - that is, avoiding traffic from one virtual network to interfere with the others. However, virtual networks are still vulnerable to disruptions on the underlying network. Particularly, high capacity physical links constitute good targets since they may be important for a large number of virtual networks.
