By decoupling the control plane from the data plane, SDN offers increased flexibility and programmability, enabling rapid adaptation to changing user requirements. However, this new approach poses significant challenges in terms of security, fault tolerance, and interoperability. This paper highlights these challenges and explores current strategies to ensure the resilience and reliability of SDN networks in the face of threats and failures.

文摘This article examines the architecture of software-defined networks (SDN) and its implications for the modern management of communications infrastructures. By decoupling the control plane from the data plane, SDN offers increased flexibility and programmability, enabling rapid adaptation to changing user requirements. However, this new approach poses significant challenges in terms of security, fault tolerance, and interoperability. This paper highlights these challenges and explores current strategies to ensure the resilience and reliability of SDN networks in the face of threats and failures. In addition, we analyze the future outlook for SDN and the importance of integrating robust security solutions into these infrastructures.
