A proposal of SDN based mobility management in multiple domain networks

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a mobility management architecture based on Software Defined Network (SDN) for multiple domain networks. In this architecture, each SDN controller cooperates with each other to optimize communication route covering multiple domain networks for seamless IP services even when the mobile devices move to other domain. This paper presents the basic design of the architecture and protocol to cover wide area for mobility management. We also show the initial experiments to confirm the behavior of our proposed architecture.
