DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF SECURE AND SUSTAINABLE SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORKS

Abstract

Nowadays the technological advancements have made the internet ubiquitous and linked a wide group of people to be through it, paving way for a network transferal, causing the applications to be shifted from its local servers to the cloud ecosystem. The shifting of the computer applications led to entailment of enormous network connectivity that caused difficulties in the operations of the network. The software defined networks emerged as capable solution for the managing the difficulties arising due to the paradigm shift, and enriched the network operators with high flexibility programming in accessing as well as controlling the multiple routing paths. However the security and the sustainability in the SDN is still an open issue. So the paper looks forward to design and develop a secure and a sustainable software defined networks. The proposed method is simulated with the NS2 to verify the enhanced quality of service provided in terms of security, throughput and the Packet drop rate.
