Title:
分離した制御デバイスおよび転送デバイスを備えるネットワークでの制御デバイス検出
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6576006
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A Software Defined Network (SDN) includes a plurality of forwarding devices and a routing control device located separate from the forwarding devices. The routing control device, establishes paths to and from the network forwarding devices. Using such paths, forwarding devices send the routing control device information reflecting the topology if the network.
