Abstract

Virtualizacija mrežnih funkcija je nova ideja koja je brzo privukla pažnju pružatelja telekomunikacijskih usluga i akademske zajednice. Osnova te ideje je instanciranje mrežnih funkcija u virtualiziranoj okolini kako bi se postigla neovisnost programske podrške o sklopovlju te fleksibilnije upravljanje i implementacija mrežnih funkcija. Zbog velikog interesa dostupno je mnogo platformi otvorenog koda za virtualizaciju mrežnih funkcija, kao što su vatrozid, usmjeravanje, prevođenje mrežnih adresa i druge. U ovom radu proučen je koncept virtualizacije mrežnih funkcija te je dana usporedba platformi otvorenog koda za virtualizaciju tih funkcija. Dodatno, demonstriran je rad platformi VyOS i pfSense u laboratorijskom okruženju, gdje se programski upravljalo instancama mrežnih funkcija.

Abstract (english)

Network functions virtualization is a new idea that is getting more and more attention from telecommunication service providers and academia. Its basic idea is to instantiate network functions in a virtualized environment in order to decouple software from hardware and achieve more flexible management and implementation of network functions. Because of high interest, there is a lot of open source platforms for virtualizing network functions, such as firewall, routing, network address translation and others. In this thesis, the concept of network functions virtualization has been studied and a comparison of open source platforms for virtualization of these functions has been presented. Moreover, operation of platforms VyOS and pfSense has been demonstrated in a laboratory environment, where network functions instances were managed by a software.
