Abstract

See full text

Propagating a flow policy within a software defined network (SDN) includes sending a route path request for a flow from a first forwarding node to an SDN controller of the SDN, receiving route path information specifying a route path for the flow from the SDN controller, and generating, using a processor of the first forwarding node, a control packet including the route path. The control packet is communicated from the first forwarding node to a second forwarding node.
