Automatic bootstrapping of OpenFlow networks [PDF]

2013 19th IEEE Workshop on Local & Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN), 2013
OpenFlow decouples the control plane functionality from switches, and embeds it into one or more servers called controllers. One of the challenges of OpenFlow is to deploy a network where control and data traffic are transmitted on the same channel (in-band mode). Implementing such an in-band mode is complex, since switches have to search and establish

Energy‐Aware Controller Placement With Delay Guarantees for In‐Band SDN

International Journal of Network Management, Volume 36, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Software‐defined networking (SDN) enables flexible, programmable networks, but in large deployments, poor controller placement can raise latency and energy use. This paper presents a practical in‐band SDN model and an optimization method that jointly accounts for control‐plane delay and device power consumption to place controllers and ...

SDN in the home: A survey of home network solutions using Software Defined Networking

Cogent Engineering, 2018
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an important paradigm shift of computer networking in the last 10 years. The concept of SDN is so powerful that the potential of applying it can easily be perceived beyond the initial use case of large data centre ...

Lightweight Mutual Authentication in VANETs: A Software‐Defined Networking and Edge Computing Approach

IET Communications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper presents a lightweight mutual authentication protocol for VANETs that integrates SDN, edge computing, and ECC to achieve low‐latency, scalable, and privacy‐preserving vehicle communication. The proposed system reduces authentication delay and computational overhead while supporting batch verification and conditional identity traceability ...

OFTEN Testing OpenFlow Networks [PDF]

2012 European Workshop on Software Defined Networking, 2012
Software-defined networking and OpenFlow in particular enable independent development of network devices and software that controls them. Such separation of concerns eases the introduction of new network functionality, however, it leads to distributed responsibility for bugs.

Centralised Key Management System Architecture for Topology‐Aware and Quantum‐Resilient Security in QKD‐Integrated SDN Control Planes

IET Quantum Communication, Volume 7, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper was not transferred from another journal. ABSTRACT Software‐defined networking (SDN) consolidates network control at a centralised controller, making the southbound TLS‐protected channel between the controller and OpenFlow switches the principal security boundary of the entire network.

OMNI: OpenFlow MaNagement Infrastructure [PDF]

2011 International Conference on the Network of the Future, 2011
Managing computer networks is challenging because of the numerous monitoring variables and the difficulty to autonomously configure network parameters. This paper presents the OpenFlow MaNagement Infrastructure (OMNI), which helps the administrator to control and manage OpenFlow networks by providing remote management based on a web interface.
