New solutions based on SDN has been proposed for substations. SDN has represented a significant gain in network configuration and dynamic management. Despite the advantages of using SDN technology, security mechanisms to prevent substation attacks are needed. In order to avoid Denial-of- service attacks, this work proposes an IED authentication mechanism. The proposal was implemented with Mininet and RYU controller. Results indicate the effectiveness of the mechanism and also it shows the need for security implementation in substations.
