Overview
What this challenge is about.
Design SDN slicing with ONOS in Mininet, run a contention experiment, and deliver your code plus a verifiable certificate.
The scenario
The telco (regulated under IMDA, competing with 2 other operators on enterprise 5G) needs slicing live before the manufacturing-customer SLA contracts are signed.
The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Design and prototype SDN-based network slicing that enforces 3 distinct customer SLAs under contention on an ONOS-controlled transport network.
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Implement an SDN application against a real controller's northbound API
- Translate customer SLAs into concrete flow rules + meter configurations
- Validate slice isolation under contention with reproducible experiments
- Communicate slicing trade-offs to a network-engineering audience
