SDN is one of the most important trends for the future Internet and regional networks. You do not need to program, configure, or troubleshoot each network device individually. Instead, you can just sit in a centralized management office and customize your network based on the different needs whether it be scientific experiments, business management, home networks control, and local community communications.<\/p>\n
SDN is a cutting edge technology. SDN can dynamically model and shape traffic depending on what is required. Essentially what happens is SDN separates Networking into a control plane and a data plane. The data plane contains all hardware such as switches, routers, bridges that allow packets to go from point A to point B. The control plane is a set of management servers that communicate with the different networking equipment in the data plane and determines how the data should move on the data plane.<\/p>\n
