Abstract
The demonstration will show the live access to the control framework of a pan-European OpenFlow testbed. The testbed spans five islands all over Europe, allowing experimenters access not only to virtual machines but to the switches interconnecting them. This extends the control of networking experiments beyond best-effort overlays to a real control of the network, its routing and forwarding functions itself. A first video explaining the registration process and the setup of a slice for a new network experiment can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p482T9O9HOg .
A tutorial explaining (in short video sequences) the registration and use of the testbed is online on http://www.fp7-ofelia.eu .
