Provided is a method of address resolution in a software-defined network. An Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request message is received on a network device. The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request message from the network device is forwarded to an OpenFlow controller. A determination is made whether the OpenFlow controller includes information to identify a Media Access Control (MAC) address corresponding to an IP address of a receiving device from the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request message. A response is generated depending on whether the OpenFlow controller includes said information.
