Software-Defined Network (SDN) is the new paradigm in the computer network architecture. The concept is based on the decoupling of the data plane from the control plane. Such decoupling creates the possibility for central traffic management, hence offering the potential to improve the network’s performance and monitoring capabilities. We use those capabilities to perform extensive testing of the communication system for the fleet of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV). First, we present the configuration of our testbed, the methodology of performing such testing, and a framework for experiment design. Finally, we present our results based on the presented approach.
