    OpenFlow-based dynamic routing

  2. 2.in general

  3. 3.in particular

    A centralized SDN controller doing dynamic, QoS-aware traffic routing over OpenFlow.

  1. 1.in brief

    a network where one controller decides every route

  2. 2.in general

    One controller deciding where every packet goes.

  3. 3.in particular

    A central controller adjusting network routes as traffic changes.


note

A Python1 SDN2 controller that monitors traffic and adjusts routing tables in real time for QoS and congestion response, developed and tested against complex topologies in Mininet4.

note

Normally every switch in a network decides for itself where to send things. Here one controller watches all the traffic and rewrites those decisions as conditions change, prioritising what matters and routing around congestion. Developed and tested against complicated simulated networks running on a single machine.
