Architecture of SDNHow it look like
In the SDN architecture, the control and data planes are decoupled, network intelligence and
state centralized, and the underlying network infrastructure is abstracted from the applications.

The HPE VAN SDN Controller provides a unified
control point in an OpenFlow-enabled network,
simplifying management, provisioning, and
orchestration and enabling delivery of a new
generation
of application-based network services.

Path Diagnostics
Topology Manager
Topology Viewer
The HPE VAN SDN Controller includes a default set of core network service applications that
are installed as modules on the controller.
List of controller embedded applications
20SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORK
The OpenFlow Link Discovery application pushes flow-mods to steal
discovery packets, injects discovery packets to all ports on all datapaths,
and discovers links on the controlled network by
listening for PACKET_IN messages. It discovers two types of links:
 direct links
 multi-hop links
The OpenFlow Link Discovery
The OpenFlow Link Discovery application distinguishes the link type by injecting
two packets to each port in an OpenFlow instance. These packets have the same
Ethernet type (0x8999), but are sent to different destination MAC addresses
21SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORK
The OpenFlow Node Discovery application pushes
flow-mods to controlled devices that copy ARP
packets or DHCP packets to the controller for
processing and listens for PACKET_IN messages that
contain the ARP or DHCP protocol.
OpenFlow Node Discovery
22SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORK
The Path Diagnostics application determinates and verify the path
taken by trace packets from a source host to a destination host. The
application finds an existing flow that matches with description of
the trace packet, clones it with higher priority, and adds an
additional action toinstruct the selected switch to send this packet
back to the controller for status tally.
Path Diagnostics
23SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORK
The Path Daemon application is responsible for
pushing end-to-end flows for all ARP and IPv4
flow misses that arrive at the controller. By default,
Path Daemon is responsible for Layer-2
forwarding only. This component depends on other
network service components like the Node
manager and the Path Selection manager.
Path Daemon
24SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORK
The Topology Manager provides topology information of the
control domain. It also facilitates
shortest path traversals through the control domain by
computing low cost next-hops or link edge
weight between any two datapaths in the control domain.
Topology Manager creates the clusters
and broadcast tree to avoid loops and broadcast storms.
Topology Manager

CONCLUSIONS and FUTURE SCOPE
With its many
advantages and
astonishing industry
momentum, SDN is on
the way to become- the
new approach for
networking.
promises to transform
today’s static networks
into flexible ,scalable,
programmable
platforms with the
intelligence to allocate
resources dynamically.

Editor's Notes

  • #14 the benefits of an SDN could lead to: -the ability to purchase inexpensive switches that have very little resident software and processing needs -Centralization of the forwarding information base allows optimum routes to be calculated deterministically for each flow. end-to-end across the topology -SDN dynamically respond to application requirements -SDN optimize the utilization of the network without sacrificing service quality -SDN can filter packets as they enter the network and hence these switches can act as simple firewalls at the edge of the network -SDN switches can redirect sertain suspicious traffic flows to higher layer security controls .such as IPS systems ,application firewalls and data loss prevention devices. -SDN switches that support the modification of packet headers will also be able to function as a simple cost-effective load-balancing device
