The document summarizes a 2014 global transport SDN demonstration conducted jointly by the OIF and ONF. It describes the goals of demonstrating the current state of SDN in the transport industry using REST APIs and OpenFlow. It provides an agenda that includes an overview of tests, deep dives into OpenFlow CDPI and CVNI tests, and a summary. The demonstration involved participation from 17 companies across 5 carriers and 9 vendors.

on “East-West” interfaces
• Google: 4+ times more traffic than North-South
• Inter-cluster interface
• VM Migration, Dataset synch/relocation
• Duration needs to be as short as possible
• High-bandwidth connectivity, short-lived connections
