METHODS AND APPARATUS TO PROVIDE A DISTRIBUTED FIREWALL IN A NETWORK |
| 摘要 |
Methods and apparatus to provide a distributed firewall in a network are disclosed. An example method includes identifying, at a control plane, a network traffic rule to implement in a network; determining, at the control plane, a distributed firewall for a first firewall in the network to enforce the network traffic rule; instructing, using the control plane, a first software-defined networking node to instantiate the first firewall of the distributed firewall; configuring a second software-defined networking node to route network traffic through the first firewall; and instructing the first software-defined networking node to enforce the network traffic rule. |
