Access Control Lists (ACLs)

Globo Network API enables deployment of Access Control lists on OpenVSwitch through the OpenFlow controller OpenDaylight.

To do it, Globo Network API exports HTTP urls to manage flows of ACLs. Using the abstraction of a environment, we segment the ACLs.

When a controller is inserted as a new equipment in the API we must inform for which Environment that controller belongs. This way we segment which Environment will use ACLs based on SDN.

If you run a set of OpenVSwitches and control them with the controller you should use the following HTTP Urls to manage ACLs flows inside the virtual switch:

• GET
• POST
• PUT
• DELETE
