摘要：Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an emerging architecture in the field of networking in which the control plane andforwarding plane of traditional networking devices (e.g. Switches, Routers) are decoupled. The network-wide traffic flow can be directlyprogrammed. SDN plays an important role in today’s enterprises and applications with drastically changing requirements which aremonitored and adapted by the change in traffic flows through the networking devices. This survey paper on SDN provides an outline on thestandard communication interface, characteristics of SDN and the pros and cons that are associated with SDN architecture
