Tutorial: Practical verification of network programs

Nate Foster, Arjun Guha, Mark Reitblatt, Cole Schlesinger

Abstract: In this tutorial, we will show participants how to program software defined networks (SDN) in a modular way, using Frenetic's abstractions. We will build several realistic network applications from the ground up, and also learn to use more sophisticated modules, such as NAT and MAC-learning, which are part of the Frenetic standard library. We will also look under the hood to see how the Frenetic compiler and runtime system work.
