Simulation of a Corporate Network Based on Software-Defined Infrastructure and Network Function Virtualization

There is a problem of creating the models of modern software-defined and software-configurable infrastructure components. Many simulation platforms do not have tools for implementing such models. This paper describes the features of corporate virtualized network infrastructures. The approach to creating an abstracted model of a part of the infrastructure based on virtual prototype studies is considered, a simulation scheme for a switch and a controller for software-defined infrastructure is proposed.
