ISD-WiFi: An intelligent SDN based solution for enterprise WLANs
Daikai Tu, Zhifeng Zhao, Honggang Zhang · 2016
With the development of SDN(Software-Defined Networking) and WiFi, it is very important and useful to integrate them under one unified architecture. SDN controller can manage routers, switches and WiFi's APs with standard OpenFlow protocol and provide end-to-end control, by which flexible management strategies can be achieved to satisfy various requirements of future network. In this paper, we propose an intelligent SDN based solution for enterprise WLANs and put forward an unified management architecture in the solution. New mobility and interference management schemes are designed under this architecture. Simulation results show that our solutions perform better than current solutions in mobility and interference management.
