Since OpenFlow was launched to global community, many researchers in the world plunged in this idea to contribute with improvements. The OpenFlow enables networks to evolve, by giving a remote controller the power to modify the behavior of network devices, through a well-defined "forwarding instruction set". The growing OpenFlow ecosystem now includes routers, switches, virtual switches, and access points from a range of vendors. [1]

In Brazil, also there was a mobilization to participate in this endeavor. However, perhaps for the coverage, or the distance from actual campus backbones, the Brazilian research community has a large difficulty in accessing Openflow-based infrastructures. The project EDOBRA came to facilitate for the local researchers to run experimental protocols in the networks they use every day. These experiments include developments with the FINLAN, DTS-based tests, energy efficiency, and integrated multicast and mobility experiments providing a common test infrastructure.
