COMPUTER SYSTEM AND VIRTUAL NETWORK VISUALIZATION METHOD

摘要

A computer system according to the present invention includes a managing unit which outputs a plurality of virtual networks managed by a plurality of controllers in a visually perceivable form with the plurality of virtual networks combined, on the basis of topology data of the virtual networks, the topology data being generated based on communication routes. This enables centralized management of the whole of a virtual network controlled by a plurality of controllers which use an OpenFlow technology.

主权项

1. A computer system, comprising:
a plurality of controllers, each of which calculates communication routes and sets flow entries onto switches on said communication routes; switches which perform relaying of received packet in accordance with said flow entries set in flow tables of the switches; and a managing unit which outputs a plurality of virtual networks managed by said plurality of controllers in a visually perceivable form with the plurality of virtual networks combined, based on topology data of the virtual networks, the topology data being generated based on said communication routes.
