Implementasi Konsep Software Defined Networking (SDN) Wide Area Network (WAN) Pada Mikrotik Dengan Python 3

Abstract


 Software Defined Networking (SDN) is the latest network technology to address the challenges that exist in TE. The concept of Software Defined Networking (SDN) uses a centralized and more flexible way of working, SDN can significantly cut the use of communication network resources needed for the utilization of network resources as a whole. When a company wants to expand its computer network to a wider area, including connecting branch offices in remote areas with data at the head office and other offices, it is necessary to setup tens to hundreds of Routers and switches which take a long time and are expensive, not to mention if something goes wrong. human (Human Error). Therefore, virtualization technology is needed so that configuration/setup on many Routers can be done simultaneously for this reason by adopting the working concept of Software Defined Networking (SDN) which will be applied to Network Automation technology. Later this Network Automation will be applied to Mikrotik which is combined with Linux Ubuntu Server and also uses the Python 3 language. So that in handling many Routers you don't need to have trouble configuring/setting up one by one on many Routers. The result of the analysis of the implementation of the Software Defined Networking (SDN) concept in Network Automation technology is that the Jogja and Bandung Mikrotik Routers are configured simultaneously in terms of adding IP addresses
