【 摘 要 】

Control Path Management is an important component in the Distributed SDN Controller, and plays a key role in Software Defined Networking (SDN). Testbed simulations are done with an implementation of several controllers are deployed to improve the scalability and reliability of the control plane framework by employed network clustering into several subdomains with separate controllers. This paper investigates the deployment of distributed SDN controller but logically centralized systems for decouples control plane using Distributed Traffic Engineering mechanism. The results obtained show that the proposed mechanism can achieve controller load balancing with better performance.
