Keywords: IOT, MUD, Network Access Control

Abstract:
A Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) is a generalized network Access Control List that allows manufacturers to declare intended communication patterns for devices. Such devices are restricted to only communicate in the manner intended by the manufacturer – thus reducing their potential to launch Distributed Denial of Service attacks. We present a scalable implementation of the MUD standard on OpenFlow-enabled Software Defined Networking switches.
