Abstract
Since the current Internet is only able to provide best-effort services, the quality of service (QoS) for many emerging businesses cannot be well guaranteed. Meanwhile, due to the privatization of networks management, multi-vendor heterogeneous networks are difficult to provide end-to-end QoS assurance on demand. Therefore, heterogeneous devices from different vendors also bring new challenges to the flexible control of network equipment. Software defined network (SDN) is an emerging paradigm which separates the network’s control logic from the underlying routers and switches. In this paper, we design a monitoring loop of link latency by using both LLDP and Echo probing modules. Then, a dynamic routing algorithm is proposed to select optimized transmission path based on the information of link latency. In addition, we develop a routing application assorted with the monitoring mechanism by extending the RYU controller. We implement our solution in a semi-practical SDN testbed. Finally, the overall feasibility and efficiency of the proposed solution are experimentally verified and evaluated.
