Abstract

The Software Defined Networking (SDN) is currently one of the most promising technologies in mobile backhaul networks based on the OpenFlow protocol. OpenFlow provides a specification to migrate the control logic from a switch into the controller. In this paper we apply Mininet software with Floodlight controller to verify the OpenFlow controller to perform its function.
