Abstract

Background and Objective: Software-Defined Networks (SDN) decouple the responsibility of data plane, control plane and aggregates responsibilities at the controller. The controller manages all the requests generated from distributed switches to get the optimal path for sending data from source to destination using load balancing algorithms. The guarantee of packet reachability is a major challenge in real time scenario of a SDN which depends on components of network infrastructure as switches, a central controller, channel capacity and server load. The success of this aggregation and packet reachability demand is a high Quality of Service (QoS) requirement in terms of throughput, delay and packet loss due to high traffic volume and network size. This QoS has two perspectives one is required other is a computation of real QoS value.

Methods: In this paper, we have presented the QoS based formal model of SDN to compute and to investigate the role of the real QoS value. This formal model includes QoS on the basis of packet movement hop by hop which is a real-time QoS. The hop by hop packet movement reliability has been computed using channel capacity and server load which is an abstraction of throughput, delay, and packet loss. The effect of channel capacity and server load can be varying using different values of the weight factor. We have also considered an equal role of channel capacity and server load to compute reliability. This QoS helps to the controller to match with required QoS to decide the better path.

Conclusion: Our results finds the reliable path based on channel capacity and server load of the network. Also, results showed that the reliability of the network and controller which are based on the reliability of the packet delivery between two nodes.

Keywords: Open flow, quality of service, software defined networks, data plane, control plane, high traffic volume.
