Limitations of OpenFlow Topology Discovery Protocol [PDF]
OpenFlow Discovery Protocol (OFDP) is the de-facto protocol used by OpenFlow controllers to discover the underlying topology. In this paper, we show that OFDP has some serious security, efficiency and functionality limitations that make it non suitable ...

Arbitrary Packet Matching in OpenFlow [PDF]
OpenFlow has emerged as the de facto control protocol to implement Software-Defined Networking (SDN). In its current form, the protocol specifies a set of fields on which it matches packets to perform actions, such as forwarding, discarding or ...

Unconvinced, Unreconstructed, and Unrepentant: A Reply to Professor Friedman’s Response [PDF]
Software defined networks are poised to dramatically simplify deployment and management of networks. OpenFlow, in particular, is becoming popular and starts being deployed. While the definition of the “northbound” API that can be used by the new services

Mechanism to prevent the abuse of IPv6 fragmentation in OpenFlow networks.
OpenFlow makes a network highly flexible and fast-evolving by separating control and data planes. The control plane thus becomes responsive to changes in topology and load balancing requirements.

Software-Defined Networking Using OpenFlow: Protocols, Applications and Architectural Design Choices
We explain the notion of software-defined networking (SDN), whose southbound interface may be implemented by the OpenFlow protocol. We describe the operation of OpenFlow and summarize the features of specification versions 1.0–1.4. We give an overview of

OpenFlow Deployment and Concept Analysis
Terms such as SDN and OpenFlow (OF) are often used in the research and development of data networks. This paper deals with the analysis of the current state of OpenFlow protocol deployment options as it is the only real representative protocol that ...

SDN-OpenFlow Topology Discovery: An Overview of Performance Issues [PDF]
Software-defined networking (SDN) is an innovative architecture that separates the control plane from the data plane to simplify and speed up the management of large networks. This means the control logic has been moved from the network hardware level to

Extending Openflow In Virtual Networks
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a novel technology that has become a prominent topic in the last years. In any research is essential to have emulators and simulators in order to test new applications or protocols. In this context, we present the integration of OpenFlow protocol with Virtual Networks over linuX (VNX) tool, as new alternative for ...

Advancing SDN from OpenFlow to P4: A Survey [PDF]
Software-defined Networking (SDN) marked the beginning of a new era in the field of networking by decoupling the control and forwarding processes through the OpenFlow protocol.
