“…As envisioned by Conti et al [71], the Internet of the future will be polymorphic, i.e., it will allow various specific networking environments to coexist, thanks to virtualization and federation. The extended concepts of NVE presented in this paper clearly embrace those two properties.…”

Computer Communications, Elsevier, 2016, 80, pp.33-44. 10.1016/j.comcom.2016 AbstractExperimentation is typically the last step before launching a network application on a large production scale. However, it is often difficult to gather enough hardware resources for experimenting with a reasonably sized distributed application inside a controlled environment. Virtualization is thus a handy technique for creating such an experimentation testbed. We propose a tool called NEmu designed to create virtual dynamic networks by using emulation for testing and evaluating prototypes of networked or distributed applications with a complete control over the network topology and link parameters. NEmu leverages system emulators such as QEMU for virtualizing the hosts and the routers. It uses vnd for virtualizing components such as links and switches. In addition, NEmu allows users to create such customized topologies with limited hardware resources and without any administrative rights. We validate NEmu by replicating two network experiments and by showing that NEmu gives results very similar to the original ones.

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks exhaust victim's bandwidth or services. Traditional architecture of Internet is vulnerable to DDoS attacks and an ongoing cycle of attack & defense is observed. A recent attack report of year 2013 -'Quarter 1' from Prolexic Technologies identifies that 1.75 percent increase in total number of DDoS attacks has been recorded as compared to similar attacks of previous year's last quarter. In this paper, different types and techniques of DDoS attacks and their countermeasures are surveyed. The significance of this paper is the coverage of many aspects of countering DDoS attacks including new research on the topic. We survey different papers describing methods of defense against DDoS attacks based on entropy variations, traffic anomaly parameters, neural networks, device level defense, botnet flux identifications, application layer DDoS defense and countermeasures in wireless networks, CCN & cloud computing environments. We also discuss some traditional methods of defense such as traceback and packet filtering techniques, so that readers can identify major differences between traditional and current techniques of defense against DDoS attacks. We identify that application layer DDoS attacks possess the ability to produce greater impact on the victim as they are driven by legitimate-like traffic, making it quite difficult to identify and distinguish from legitimate requests. The need of improved defense against such attacks is therefore more demanding in research. The study conducted in this paper can be helpful for readers and researchers to recognize better techniques of defense in current times against DDoS attacks and contribute with more research on this topic in the light of future challenges identified in this paper.
