Design and Deployment of Federation Testbed in EU-KR for Identifier-based communications

SmartFIRE is the first intercontinental testbed, federating multiple small-scale testbeds in South Korea and Europe, which exploits the benefits and building blocks of an OpenFlow-based infrastructure. As a part of SmartFIRE, both ETRI and UMU designs and develops a federation testbed for Identifier-based communications that all of communication services are achieved by Identifier not by IP address. In order to manage and control the testbed, we deploy a Measurement and Management Framework (OMF), further we will deploy SFA aggregate manager to federate with other SmartFIRE testbed. In this paper we introduce the federation testbed for ID-based communications including network connectivity, architecture configuration, and federation architecture. Moreover, to exploit the testbed, we design and implement two mobility use cases that we show seamless network connection service under host's mobility, such as intra-domain handover and inter-domain handover. Thus we can show result of the experimentation that the communication session wouldn't be cut off even though communication entity moves to a different network. Finally we refer future works for federation to cooperate with other SmartFIRE testbeds and additional ID-based communication scenario.
