Simulation of network migration to software-defined network: Case study: ITB Ganesha campus

Abstract

Internet networking's growing lead to complexity in the design, management, and operations. Software Defined Network (SDN) is the answer to all the challenges of the complexity of today's networks. By conducting the separation between the control plane and the data plane, SDN administrator facilitate the network in the process of optimization, perform network management and has better scalability in its provisioning. This is the basis for this paper to be able to implement it at ITB network that still use the conventional network. Implementation of network migration is tailored to the specifications of the network needs at ITB.
