The present invention relates to a method 100, 110 and SDN controller 301 for routing data packets in a Software Defined Network (SDN) 300. The SDN controller 301 configures a plurality of routes between any two edge switches in the network over all non-edge switches. A new data packet received at a source edge switch 302, or a header of said data packet, is forwarded to the SDN controller 301. The SDN controller 301 then selects one of the routes according to a destination edge switch 302 of the data packet, and configures only the source and destination edge switch 303, respectively, for sending the data packet along the selected route. |
