Implementation of Protection Protocols for Security Threats in SDN

Abstract

Software-defined network (SDN) is designed to make the central network more efficient and improve the control network. Its architecture is fully controlled designed and configured as programmable. The controller of SDN controls the entire network of SDN. In this chapter, some SDN protocols are implemented to reduce security risks. So many devices are launched in the market with the new technology as per the requirement of the new era. SDN gives more benefits due to centralized control and network control programmability. The simple network uses switch and routers to manage all the client requests as a centralized network. To identify the fake links and requests by sending SPV (Stealthy Probing Verification) packets. Sometimes, it detects the fake links but does not detect them all the time.
