Separating the network into logically separated networks
Network Slicing, Campus Slicing, Secured Enclaves, Micro-
Segmentation, Virtual Routing and Forwarding, etc.
Done by adding a slicing layer between the control plane and
the data plane, policies are slice-specific
Enforce strong isolation between slices - actions in one slice
do not affect another (Flowspace)
Examples: Cisco XNC with Networking Slicing application,
FlowVisor is a special purpose OpenFlow controller that acts
as a transparent proxy between OpenFlow switches and
multiple OpenFlow controllers
