A method for communicating between a plurality of Software-Service-Defined-Networks (SSDNs) comprising transmitting a data packet from a Network Element (NE) in a first SSDN domain to a component in a second SSDN domain by using an Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP), wherein the data packet comprises a destination address indicating an address of a XMPP server in the second domain. Also disclosed is a method of federating a plurality of SSDN domains implemented in a first XMPP server comprising receiving a login message from a first component positioned in a first SSDN domain, and in response to receiving the login message, advertising the first SSDN component to a second XMPP server positioned in a second SSDN domain via a first XMPP message. |
