LOFT — Verified Migration of Linux Firewalls to SDN

Julius Michaelis and Cornelius Diekmann

Abstract

We present LOFT — Linux firewall OpenFlow Translator, a system that transforms the main routing table and FORWARD chain of iptables of a Linux-based firewall into a set of static OpenFlow rules. Our implementation is verified against a model of a simplified Linux-based router and we can directly show how much of the original functionality is preserved.
