Research on Security Technologies for Open Reconfigurable Routing and Switching Platforms

The dynamic development of network services puts forward higher requirements for traditional information networks. In order to adapt to the development, the concept of "reconfigurable network" is proposed to improve the robustness and expansibility of network service support. However, the reconfiguration of the routing switching platform represented by the upgrading of the architecture hardware system will bring great cost pressure to users. In order to reduce the operation and maintenance cost of the network system and improve the reliability of the network system, the reconfiguration of the routing switching platform gradually transits and develops to the direction of retaining hardware equipment, upgrading software system and updating some equipment. In this paper, it analyses and design the security architecture of the open reconfigurable routing and switching platform to meet the demand for high speed, high capacity and high efficiency processing of network information, especially the demand for secure data transmission and exchange. For the prominent and critical security issues and matters in the reconfigurable routing and switching platform, the security reconfiguration method of platform components and components is constructed, and the system of components is analysed and modelled. Finally, the effectiveness and necessity of security techniques applied in the open reconfigurable routing and switching platform are verified.
