An experimental evaluation of lightweight virtualization for software-defined routing platform

Network virtualization is one of the foundations for Future Internet architectures, able to catalyze technologies for the solution of classical problems in the IP layer. The work here gives a step forward in that direction, evaluating the performance of different virtual network tools under the perspective of a virtualized IP routing control plane. Two lightweight container-based virtualization systems, OpenVZ and LXC, were selected based on specific criteria and evaluated in the context of virtual routers. Obtained results allow for a comparative analysis about the convergence of the routing protocol and give insights about the adoption of these tools on a routing as a service platform.
