POX CONTROLLER PERFORMANCE FOR OPENFLOW NETWORKS.

OpenFlow is an open platform that manages flow tables and packet forwarding in the network switches and other network components. The OpenFlow controller, connected network switch's control path with secure channel that is basically flow control software. This paper focused performance of newly adopted OpenFlow controller POX in a simple network controlled by a HP network switch. Jitter values analyzed with different size of packets and three distinct state of OpenFlow protocol. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
