Grafnet: Using Graph Neural Networks to Create Table-Less Routers

Grafnet, a Graph Neural-Network (GNN)-based scheme learns IP-address-to-port mapping, leading to forwarding table-less routers. GNNs allow mapping network-wide features like adjacencies and addresses to generate new representations. Grafnet converts network-wide IP addresses to a feature space using GNNs. GNNs extrapolate node adjacencies onto a feature matrix, whose output tells which address/sub...
