Cupid: Congestion-free consistent data plane update in software defined networks
Abstract
With the popular applications of SDN in load balancing and failure recovery, the controller schedules affected flows to redundant paths to avoid network congestions and failures by updating flow tables in data plane. However, inconsistent flow table updating may lead to transient incorrect network behaviors or undesired performance degradation. Therefore, the consistency imposes dependencies among updates, so that the order of updates must be …
