Abstract:
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an evolving networking technology concept that enables
advancement about how to maintain and design network systems. Due to the separate data plane
and control plane, consolidated management is assisted in a Software defined Network. In this
thesis we did a compulsive study on SDN.
Another important term is OpenFlow which is an SDN approach, presenting the inherent
OpenFlow switches with such a centralized controller. OpenFlow switches are designed with flow
tables that the controller can handle to use the OpenFlow protocol interface. An evaluation of an
SDN emulation tool called Mininet is performed in this thesis. In Software Defined Networking
(SDN) and OpenFlow, Mininet had been created to enable research. In this thesis we have used
Mininet network emulator to create a virtual SDN network for OpenDaylight to control. A tree
topology is created over OpenDaylight using mininet, which is a simple demonstration of SDN
and understandable to everyone.
