Description
Summary:Internet of Things (IoT) becomes a very important area for providing various services on connected smart devices. For isolation of different services in IoT, software defined networking (SDN) based virtual networks will be a scalable and flexible solution. However, in a large-scale IoT, as smart devices will move long distance between different positions, virtual network management becomes very difficult in providing network services. In this paper, we propose LS-SDV, an efficient virtual network management framework in large-scale software defined IoT (SDIoT). In this framework, we design a two-layer distributed control plane to manage devices and virtual networks in a large-scale environment. To the best of our knowledge, LSSDV is the first work to apply distributed control plane for virtual network management in softwarized networks. Moreover, based on the novel structure of LS-SDV, we also provide a solution for network flow scheduling through network analysis. We evaluate the performance of our framework and virtual network management by extensive simulation and experiment in an open SDN framework.
