Abstract
The idea of VDE is very effective but straightforward simple and can be applied in very many configuration to provide several services. It is a sort of Swiss knife of emulated networks. It can be used as a general virtual private network as well as a support technology for mobility, a tool for network testing, a general reconfigurable overlay network, a layer for implementing privacy preserving technologies and many others. A prototype VDE has been implemented and released as free software under the GPL licence.

Extending Networking into the Virtualization Layer.

TL;DR: This work describes how Open vSwitch can be used to tackle problems such as isolation in joint-tenant environments, mobility across subnets, and distributing configuration and visibility across hosts.

Distributed logical l3 routing

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for logically routing a packet between a source machine in a first logical domain and a destination machine that is in a second logical domain is described, which configures a router in a host that includes the second-level managed switching element.

Method and apparatus for implementing and managing virtual switches

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a virtual platform in which one or more distributed virtual switches can be created for use in virtual networking, which can support integration with traditional IP networks and support sophisticated IP technologies including NAT functionality, stateful firewalling and notifying the IP network of workload migration.

Exploiting Dynamic Resource Allocation for Efficient Parallel Data Processing in the Cloud

TL;DR: Nephele is the first data processing framework to explicitly exploit the dynamic resource allocation offered by today's IaaS clouds for both, task scheduling and execution.
Patent

Network operating system for managing and securing networks

TL;DR: In this article, a view of current state of the network is maintained where the current state characterizes network topology and network constituents, including network entities and network elements residing in or on the network.

Security Architecture for the Internet Protocol

R. Atkinson
TL;DR: This document describes an updated version of the "Security Architecture for IP", which is designed to provide security services for traffic at the IP layer, and obsoletes RFC 2401 (November 1998).

The IP Network Address Translator (NAT)

K. Egevang, +1 more
TL;DR: The two most compelling problems facing the IP Internet are IP address depletion and scaling in routing and the short-term solution is CIDR (Classless InterDomain Routing).

Privacy Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration in IPv6

TL;DR: An extension to IPv6 stateless address autoconfiguration for interfaces whose interface identifier is derived from an IEEE identifier is described, causing nodes to generate global-scope addresses from interface identifiers that change over time, even in cases where the interface contains an embedded IEEE identifier.

User Mode Linux

Jeff Dike
TL;DR: New applications of UML involving integration of the virtual and host environments, along with other possibilties such as using UML as a clustering platform are discussed.

Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol

TL;DR: This document specifies a protocol which allows the Point to Point Protocol (PPP) to be tunneled through an IP network and describes a new vehicle for carrying PPP.
