  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MODIFYING FORWARDING STATES IN A NETWORK DEVICE OF A SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORK
    Publication number: 20170070416
    Abstract: A method in a network controller coupled to a network device of a software defined network (SDN), of modifying forwarding table entries of the network device is described. The method includes constructing a first message including a flow profile associated with a plurality of flows and an install profile command, where the flow profile includes a flow profile identifier, and a set of default parameter values that are common for the plurality of flows. The method continues with causing the network device to install the flow profile associated with the plurality of flows.

  • Method and system to optimize packet exchange between the control and data plane in a software defined network
    Patent number: 9590898
    Abstract: A method in a network controller of a control plane in a software defined network (SDN) coupled to a plurality of network elements (NEs) of a data plane in the SDN is described. The method includes causing the plurality of NEs to install one or more packet handling rules for a selected type of packet so that the NEs forward only a subset of data for each packet of the selected type to the network controller. The method further includes receiving the subset of data for each packet of the selected type and composing a whole packet of the selected type that includes the subset of data.
