Description
Summary:In software-defined networks (SDN), proactive and reactive response procedures to line or node outages or failures are used, often not reflecting the escalating demands of deployed applications. With the expanding deployment of SDN in the IoT, medical equipment, and military infrastructure, the requirements for stable data transmission are increasing. This also includes fast network recovery, thus minimizing the time-of-service unavailability. When designing the SDN topology, considering the scale, it is necessary to choose suitable mechanisms that guarantee stable availability and restoration of the connection after its interruption. Many of the mechanisms have their basis in IP networks, where they are already successfully deployed. This paper presents advanced fast network recovery techniques that show good statistical characteristics in their adaptation in an SDN environment. Some of them are designed to complement existing network recovery techniques in an OpenFlow environment.
