  Abstract

Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a new network paradigm that can reorganize Internet-centric networks to provide the integrated service platform and environment. However, it is a challenge to provide network connectivity and reachability for SDN-based inter-domain networks. In order to figure out this problem, in this paper, we propose an SDN inter-domain federation system in the distributed manner to provide network connectivity between individual SDN domains. For this, the abstracted federation information is exchanged using REST-API calls between SDN domains, and then the related configurations are automatically completed by the proposed system. Furthermore, in order to guarantee the independence and transparency of data transmission on inter-domain SDNs, we setup the border switch recognized as the proxy for end hosts in the peer SDN domain. Finally, the proposed system has been implemented and verified not only on the local testbed but the physical SDN-WAN infrastructure deployed between Korea and China in terms of feasibility and performance of the proposed system.
