Abstract
Although the Service Function Chains (SFCs) embedding problem is broadly investigated in the literature, few works address it in a sliced multi-administrative network federation. In this work, we provide several insights into the problem. First, we describe a new federated-level topology abstraction. Second, we introduce a novel optimization model and heuristic (for large scale), which solve SFC embedding. Third, we conduct experiments on various multi-domain topologies and compare the algorithms regarding resource allocation efficiency and runtime. We analyze the trade-off between slice deployment costs and link utilization. Finally, we emulate two security scenarios on Containernet, Docker, and Open vSwitch architecture.
