NVLAN:A Novel VLAN Technology for Scalable Multi-Tenant Datacenter Networks

摘要：

　　Nowadays,cloud providers of “Infrastructure as a service require datacenter networks to support virtualization and multi-tenancy at large scale,while it brings a grand challenge to datacenters.Traditional network technologies of datacenters and common commodity devices of network can not meet these new needs.In this paper,we present NVLAN,a novel VLAN technology for scalable multi-tenant datacenter networks.NVLAN eliminates the quantity limitation of logic isolated networks on VLAN through a slight modification.NVLAN can be applied to very large-scale datacenter networks,without the need of expensive and dedicated switches.Through encapsulation of tenants packets,NVLAN provides tenants with full address space virtualization to configure their own logic network.We implemented NVLAN on a testbed,and demonstrated that it can be scaled up to large numbers of multi-tenant networks with negligible overhead.
