Effective and efficient management of the Software-Defined networks (SDN) requires that
the controller has the current or detailed information on the network, and its topology. The …

Abstract In Software Defined Networks (SDNs), the global view of the underlying network
topology is created and maintained at the logically centralized controller. SDN achieves it by …

Software‐defined networking (SDN) already has an established presence in the networking
industry as an emerging paradigm for designing network architectures, decoupling the …

Networking (SDN) is a new paradigm for configuring, controlling and managing computer
networks. In SDN's logically centralized approach to network control, a reliable and accurate …

Topology discovery is one of the most critical tasks of Software-Defined Network (SDN)
controllers. Current SDN controllers use the OpenFlow Discovery Protocol (OFDP) as the de …

In Software Defined Networking (SDN), it is crucial for the controller to manage the data
plane and provide basic services with creating and maintaining a real-time abstract topology …

Topology discovery is one of the most critical tasks of Software-Defined Network (SDN)
controllers. Current SDN controllers use the OpenFlow Discovery Protocol (OFDP) as the de …

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 …

Software‐defined networking simplifies network management by decoupling the control
plane from the data plane and centralizing it to the controller. As the brain of the network, the …

Since a key advantage of Software Defined Networks (SDN) is providing a logically
centralized view of the network topology, the correctness of such a view becomes critical for …
