  • Migration of hosts
    Patent number: 10158705
    Abstract: When monitoring that a host migrated, a software defined network (SDN) controller may actively detect a port located by the host. Besides, when detecting the port located by the host, the SDN controller may bind the host to the port where the host is located, so as to limit migration of the host. When not detecting a port located by the host, the SDN controller may also block packets from the host.
    Type: Grant

  • Forwarding Data Packets In Software Defined Networks
    Publication number: 20170237655
    Abstract: A software defined network (SDN) controller may configure a Layer-three gateway for a network segment in a hybrid network device within a SDN network, receive a Packet-in message encapsulated with a Layer-three data packet from a SDN network device, calculate an optimum path from source media access control (MAC) address of the data packet to destination MAC address of the data packet, and issue a flow entry to each network device in the optimum path. Subsequently, each network device may forward the data packet based on the flow entry.
