SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROL TRAFFIC BALANCING IN IN-BAND SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORKS

摘要

An apparatus is configured to perform a method for in-band control traffic load balancing in a software defined network (SDN). The method includes generating one or more Markovian traffic statistics for one or more control traffic and data traffic statistics. The method also includes constructing a queueing network system based on the Markovian traffic statistics. The method further includes determining a control traffic load balancing problem based on the Markovian traffic statistics. In addition, the method includes solving the control traffic load balancing problem using one or more primal-dual update rules.
