Abstract.
As a transition from Traditional Networks to Software Defined Networks, Hybrid Software Defined Networks(SDN) shows significant research value. Hybrid SDN successfully faces the challenges that SDN comes with, such as robustness and scalability. In this paper, we describe the network architecture of flow-based hybrid software defined networks. We show how to distribute different flows in flow-based hybrid SDN to realize optimization of the entire network, using models of bi-level programming and stochastic user equilibrium.
