摘要：

Software-Defined Wireless Networking (SDWN) is being considered an appealing paradigm to design and operate wireless networks through higher-level abstractions and programmatic interfaces such as the Open Flow protocol. Identified benefits include cost savings, service velocity and customization, resource optimization through novel approaches to user mobility, traffic offloading, multi-layer and multi-path routing, and so on. This demonstration features Mininet-WiFi as a SDWN emulator with the ability to run realistic experiments in hybrid physical-virtual environments, where users attending the conference are able to experience first hand by connecting their devices and interacting with virtual WiFi stations in a wireless mesh network or reach the Internet through the emulated SDWN infrastructure. OpenFlow 1.3 metering and IP header re-writing actions will showcase HTTP flow redirection and rate limitation of real users' wireless traffic.
