The core technology OpenFlow separates the control surface from the data surface of the network equipment, so that flexible control of network flow is realized, the network becomes more intelligent as a pipeline, and a good platform is provided for innovation of the core network and application.
The whole framework of the SDN is divided into a data plane, a control plane and an application plane from bottom to top (from south to north), wherein the data plane consists of network general hardware such as a switch and the like, and all network devices are connected through SDN data paths formed by different rules; the control plane comprises a logically centered SDN controller which grasps global network information and takes charge of controlling various forwarding rules; the application plane contains various SDN-based network applications, and a user can program and deploy new applications without concern for the underlying details. The control plane and the data plane communicate through SDN Control Data Plane Interface (CDPI) and have unified communication standard, which is mainly responsible for transmitting the forwarding rule in the controller to the forwarding equipment, and the most mainly applied is OpenFlow protocol.
The interface in SDN has openness, takes the controller as a logic center, the southbound interface is responsible for communicating with a data plane, the northbound interface is responsible for communicating with an application plane, and the eastbound interface is responsible for communicating among multiple controllers. The most popular southbound interface CDPI employs the OpenFlow protocol. The OpenFlow is most basically characterized in that forwarding rules are matched based on a Flow (Flow) concept, each switch maintains a Flow Table (Flow Table), forwarding is performed according to the forwarding rules in the Flow Table, and establishment, maintenance and issuing of the Flow Table are completed by a controller. Aiming at the northbound interface, the application program invokes various required network resources through northbound interface programming, so that quick configuration and deployment of the network are realized. The east-west interface enables the controller to have expandability, and provides technical support for load balancing and performance improvement.
At present, in the prior art, only interface call monitoring is performed on an interface of an SDN controller, state monitoring cannot be performed on a service, and the situation that an empty flow table or an incomplete flow table possibly issued by the SDN controller cannot be monitored, so that an SDN switch cannot work according to expectations is caused.
In the operation process of the SDN controller, an effective means is lacking in judging the operation state of the controller, the integrity of the service state issued to the switch by the SDN controller, the issuing efficiency and other related parameters cannot be checked through the conventional means, and meanwhile, the concurrent connection capability of the SDN controller for connecting the SDN gateway lacks effective supporting means in the aspects of deployment, operation and management.
