Abstract

Software defined networking (SDN) with OpenFlow-enabled switches operate alongside traditional switches has become a matter of fact in ISP network paradigms which are known as a hybrid SDN (H-SDN) network. When the centralized controller of SDN introduced into an existing network, significant improvement in network use as well as reducing packet losses and delays are expected. However, monitoring such networks is the main concern for better traffic management decision making which can lead to a maximum throughput performance. There is, to our knowledge, only one actual article proposed for H-SDN monitoring scheme so far. Thus, this paper surveys several monitoring methods/techniques for both networks, then propose taxonomy criteria to evaluate the various monitoring methods. The survey includes discussing the design concepts, accuracy and limitations for each, eventually summarize the future research directions for integrated perspective of monitoring in H-SDN networks.
