We present an architecture for software-defined multicast that provides scalable and reliable multicast services. We consider the Bit Indexed Explicit Replication (BIER) architecture and Traffic Engineering for BIER (BIER-TE) for packet transport to mitigate scalability concerns of traditional IP multicast. We briefly discuss the advantages of an SDN-based multicast architecture leveraging BIER and discuss implementation options: OpenFlow and the P4 language. We present our prototype based on P4. We implement traditional IP multicast and several BIER variants that may be deployed simultaneously with the prototype. We present various demo scenarios that show the feasibility and the advantages of this architecture. |
