Problem

  • Need to check RINA functionality on its network design
  • Develop own RINA policy
  • Education of RINA Concepts
  • Develop security policies in RINA
  • Flow and congestion control policies in RINA
  • RINA DIF and Policy testing

Need to check RINA functionality on its network design

Need a way to check RINA functionality on their own network design in the closed and secure environment.

Develop own RINA policy

Needs a way to develop their own RINA policy supporting its business requirements.

Education of RINA Concepts

Company wants to educate its employees about RINA concepts.

Develop security policies in RINA

Develop authentication, key agreement, encryption and integrity verification policies for the RINA implementation.

Flow and congestion control policies in RINA

A modular RINA implementation in which he can load different plug-ins for flow and congestion control.

RINA DIF and Policy testing

To quickly setup a test environment to validate his implementation of certain RINA policies.

Solution

Unique Value Proposition

  • RINASim: Design Validation and Verification tests
  • RINASim: Test out new policies
  • RINASim: GUI to visualize complex behaviour
  • SDK: Quickly develop RINA policies
  • SDK: Select a number of policies form the local catalogue
  • Demonstrator: Validate scenario specifying the number of systems

RINASim: Design Validation and Verification tests

RINASim allows basic validation and verification tests of native RINA networks

RINASim: Test out new policies

RINASim offers a quick way how to integrate and test brand new policies in the frame of the whole RINA stack

RINASim: GUI to visualize complex behaviour

RINASim employs a good GUI which easily visualizes the complex behaviour of RINA networks.

SDK: Quickly develop RINA policies

SDK enables policy developers to quickly develop the policies by just focusing on the APIs that are relevant to the functionalities that the customer wants to develop. All the other codebase can be safely ignored.

SDK: Select a number of policies form the local catalogue

SDK enables RINA network operators (e.g. multi-tenant DC providers, operators running NFV infrastructure in private DCs) to select a number of policies form the local catalogue installed in his system and configure them into the DIFs indicated by the customer. The SDK takes care of instantiating and plugin-in the policies into the adequate levels of the RINA stack.

Demonstrator: Validate scenario specifying the number of systems

Demonstrator allows network designers to define a test scenario specifying the number of systems, connectivity between them, DIFs available at each system and policies available at each DIF. With this input the demonstrator executes a number of Virtual Machines connected as the user specified, instantiates the DIFs designed by the customer and executes the enrollments as required. Customer A just needs to focus on testing his policy, not in setting up complex test involving a few tens of machines.
