NIST Soft MUD: A reference implementation of a Manufacturer's Usage Description (MUD) manager using Software Defined Networking (SDN).

The goal of the MUD (Manufacturer Usage Description) specification is to provide a means for manufacturers of Things to indicate what sort of access and network functionality they require for the Thing to properly function. A manufacturer associates a MUD file with a device which specifies an ACL for the device to within deployment specific parameters. The MUD standard is defined in RFC 8520 This repository publishes a public domain scalable implementation of the IETF MUD standard. MUD is implemented on SDN capable switches using OpenDaylight as the SDN controller.
