Abstract

A network is usually developed by several devices such as router, switch etc. Every device forwards data package manipulation with complicated protocol planted in its hardware. An operator is responsible for running configuration either to manage rules or application applied in the network. Human error may occur when device configuration run manually by operator. Some famous vendors, one of them is MikroTik, has also been implementing this OpenFlow on its operation. It provides the implementation of SDN/OpenFlow architecture with affordable cost. The second phase research result showed that switch OF software-based MikroTik resulted higher latency value than both mininet and switch OF software-based OpenWRT. The average gap value of switch OF software-based MikroTik is 2012 kbps lower than the value of switch OF software-based OpenWRT. The average gap value of throughput bandwidth protocol UDP switch OF software-based MikroTik is 3.6176 kBps lower than switch OF software-based OpenWRT and it is 8.68 kBps lower than mininet. The average gap throughput jitter protokol UDP of switch OF software-based MiktoTik is 0.0103ms lower than switch OF software-based OpenWRT and 0.0093ms lower than mininet.

Highlights

  • Network is developed by some devices such as router, switches, etc which function is forwarding data package manipulation in complicated protocol planted inside every single part

  • Software-Defined Network (SDN)/OpenFlow is controller architecture with special application which can be implemented for specific need in a network

  • The implementation of OpenFlow agent on MikroTik OS Router is worth to have performance testing compared to the test of switch SDN/OpenFlow software-based OpenWRT [3]⁠which was conducted previously by the writer

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Network is developed by some devices such as router, switches, etc which function is forwarding data package manipulation in complicated protocol planted inside every single part. SDN/OpenFlow is controller architecture with special application which can be implemented for specific need in a network. It can lead data directly and dynamically based on data type, data traffic and available data track. OpenFlow was a new protocol designed and implemented by Stanford University in 2008 It can control data plane switch, which physically has been separated with control plane using controller software in a server. The types of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) allow researchers, administrators, and operators to control their network using specific software and to provide switch with Application Programming Interface (API) on forwarding table from different vendor [1]⁠. The implementation of OpenFlow agent on MikroTik OS Router is worth to have performance testing compared to the test of switch SDN/OpenFlow software-based OpenWRT [3]⁠which was conducted previously by the writer
