Background
The current internet runs on a core architecture designed years ago, which presents more and more problems with the rapid expansion of network size and the increasing abundance of application types. The functions carried by the network are continuously expanded, so that a router serving as a network core becomes overstaffed; due to lack of global scheduling, the utilization rate of network resources is not high, the capacity expansion pressure of the network is increased, and the network resources are seriously wasted; the continuous complication of the structure and the function of the internet enables the network management and control capability to be weakened continuously; the traditional network is difficult to effectively deal with network attacks such as distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) which are continuously developed and evolved.
A Software Defined Network (SDN) is a novel network model, which separates forwarding and control functions, thereby simplifying network management, providing a new space for network optimization, quality of service improvement, and security enhancement through network programmable characteristics, and effectively coping with security problems in a conventional network, such as denial of service attacks. In recent years, software defined networking has received much attention and interest from both academic and industrial circles and has been rapidly developed. Google announces that the backbone network of google runs on OpenFlow (software defined network southward interface) completely, and links 12 data centers distributed in various parts of the world through a 10G network, so that the utilization rate of a wide area line is improved from 30% to nearly saturation; major network operators such as china mobile have developed research on SDN technology and started to deploy gradually. The high-efficiency management and scheduling of network resources and the system safety are two key basic problems in a software defined network, the former directly influences the utilization capability of the software defined network resources and the network service quality, and the latter is related to the protection of a system and a system user.
Although software-defined networks have significant advantages over traditional networks, they have not yet been deployed on a large scale, mainly because: the software defined network uses different network devices, and replacing the existing network devices involves many factors such as commercial benefits, etc., so that large-scale network device updating is difficult to complete in a short time.
Therefore, how to overcome the difficulty in deploying the conventional software-defined network and how to overcome the instability of the data forwarding performance of the application is a technical problem to be solved at present.
