ResilientFlow: Deployments of distributed control channel maintenance modules to recover SDN from unexpected failures
Watanabe Takuma, Takuya Omizo, Toyokazu Akiyama, Katsuyoshi Iida · 2015
To protect SDN-enabled networks under large-scale, unexpected link failures, we propose ResilientFlow that deploys distributed modules called Control Channel Maintenance Module (CCMM) for every switch and controllers. The CCMMs makes switches able to maintain their own control channels, which are core and fundamental part of SDN. In this paper, we design, implement, and evaluate the ResilientFlow.
