Abstract

Network programmability has always been a topic of interest to researchers. After introducing the concept of SDN, control-plane programmability is achieved. However, data-plane programmability remains a challenge in the context of network programmability. We propose an autonomous SDN-based framework that achieves flexible parsing of arbitrary protocol header fields in real-time using software switches based on the NFV concept.
