摘要

摘要

En 中文
Modern networks urge agility, flexibility, and capacity to cope with the growing demand for media content and applications increasingly oriented toward data consumption. The Central Offices (CO) of telecommunication providers, being a vital aggregator of different access networks, such as optical and mobile, need to be prepared to deal with these demands. The Open Broadband-Broadband Access Abstraction (OB-BAA) architecture fits into the initiative to modernize the Information Technology (IT) components of broadband networks, more specifically the COs. This paper discusses the development of a Virtualized Network Function (VNF) in the context of network security to be integrated as a component of an OB-BAA architecture guided by the Software-Defined Network paradigm. More specifically, the authentication and authorization of network equipment within the IEEE 802.1X protocol are applied to Next Generation Passive Optical Networks. The VNF development is based on the Golang language combined with gRPC programmable interfaces for communication between the various elements of the OB-BAA architecture, and then the components were containerized and inserted in the Docker and Kubernetes virtualization frameworks of a multinational telecommunications operator. Finally, performance metrics such as computational resource usage (CPU, memory, and network I/O) and execution time of VNF processes were analyzed in usage tests with multiple supplicants and distinct operational modes, to attest to the most promising virtualization scenarios.
