Demo: Towards Software Defined Layer 4.5 Customization

We demonstrate a system prototype of a new software framework [1] for orchestration and continuous management of protocol customization of selected devices in an enterprise or data-center network. The prototype mainly consists of a network-wide customization orchestrator (NCO) that deploys sample customization modules to a pair of client-server hosts for insertion between the application and transport layers, termed Layer 4.5, and a device customization agent (DCA) installed at each host. In this demo, we show how our system can be used to customize multiple protocols on a client to match different network and server requirements.
