Information-centric networking (ICN) and software defined networking (SDN) are two novel network paradigms that the networking community is actively investigating. Because of their salient features, there are increasing attempts to integrate ICN and SDN. In this paper, we show how a recently proposed future Internet architecture (called CoLoR) makes it efficient to integrate SDN and ICN. In particular, we show how CoLoR reduces the flow setup delay, the number of flow setup requests, and the number of flow entries.
