  2. Background: What is Interdomain Routing • Determine routes for source-destination pairs that span multiple ASes • Ideally, allow policy-routing, flexible traffic engineering and etc. • De facto interdomain routing protocol: Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) 2

Background: What is Interdomain Routing • Determine routes for source-destination pairs that span multiple ASes • Ideally, allow policy-routing, flexible traffic engineering and etc. • De facto interdomain routing protocol: Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) • BGP in a nutshell : Each AS makes and executes its own policy to select routes and export the selected routes in terms of path vectors (i.e., AS path), to its neighbor ASes 3

  11. Goal of This Paper • A systematic formulation of the software-defined internetworking (SDI) model, extending intradomain SDN to generic interdomain SDN to support flexible, end- to-end interdomain route control • Conceptually program every single packet end-to-end in an interdomain network • Save users from the trouble of configuring and reasoning low-level details of interdomain routing (e.g., AS-path prepending, offline negotiation with different ASes and tunnel management) 11
