METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR HASH ROUTING IN SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORKING

摘要

This disclosure relates enhancements to a SDN system including the controller, southbound interface, and OpenFlow devices, to enable hash-routing, and describes SDN applications making use of this feature. More specifically, the application relates to Software Defined Networking (e.g., OpenFlow) enhancements to facilitate the deployment and usage of Distributed Hash Tables, for example as part of Information Centric Networking (ICN).
