The increasing need for service providers makes the performance of network management must also be improved. In this study, the author builds a clustering controller using the Open Network Operating System (ONOS) controller on an Software Defined Network (SDN) network. ONOS has a cluster feature that allows it to distribute traffic loads to other controllers to increase performance. The performance of clustering controller is compared with single controller and multi controller without clustering by measuring Quality of Service (QoS) on delay, jitter, and throughput parameters for data, voice, and video services. The test is done by adding background traffic. After being tested and analyzed, the performance of the clustering controller has the most superior QoS with an average delay in data services of 0.047026667 ms, jitter of 0.015414943 ms, throughput of 37.56360736 kbit/s. In the voice service, the delay value is 0.03909 ms, the jitter is 0.01828 ms, the throughput is 72.79049 kbit/s. In the video service, the delay value is 0,12072 ms, the jitter is 0,042013 ms, and the throughput is 5314,059 kbit/s. While in single and multi controller the average value obtained is not much different from the clustering controller. This is due to the single controller architecture, the network control center is only centered on 1 controller, as well as multi controllers, so that it affects the performance of service distribution.
