Abstract(in English) In OpenFlow, a controller handles flows, defined by the switch port number and the value of packet headers (called the flow space), on a network. For efficient physical resource use, enabling multiple users (i.e., a controller and end-hosts connecting the controlled network) to share physical OpenFlow switches and links is necessary. Because existing mechanisms provision just slices of a physical OpenFlow network, complicated physical connection management or limited use of the flow space is enforced. This paper proposes a mechanism to virtualize the flow space by translating flows handled by users and physical OpenFlow switches. Our mechanism provides virtual OpenFlow networks where users can enjoy the flow space freely.
