“…Another example of the island-based model is the application of SDN in the BGP interdomains communications to ease and improve its control. Lin et al [67] propose a practical transition to SDN, called BTSDN. The key idea in this approach is to integrate the border BGP routers, which have high price and performance, with SDN.…”

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is an evolutionary networking paradigm which has been adopted by large network and cloud providers, among which are Tech Giants. However, embracing a new and futuristic paradigm as an alternative to well-established and mature legacy networking paradigm requires a lot of time along with considerable financial resources and technical expertise. Consequently, many enterprises can not afford it. A compromise solution then is a hybrid networking environment (a.k.a. Hybrid SDN (hSDN)) in which SDN functionalities are leveraged while existing traditional network infrastructures are acknowledged.Recently, hSDN has been seen as a viable networking solution for a diverse range of businesses and organizations. Accordingly, the body of literature on hSDN research has improved remarkably. On this account, we present this paper as a comprehensive state-of-the-art survey which expands upon hSDN from many different perspectives.

As a global community, the Internet is comprised of thousands of administrative entities that operate and interact with each other. Transferring data among these entities is possible due to the process of routing, which is challenging due to the lack of centrality. Consequently, the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) can play a vital role in the routing process as a central hub for disseminating routing information to the various autonomous systems. Yet, the BGP poses security vulnerability due to the difficulty of validation and authentication. Recent studies argue that it would be beneficial to apply the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) approach to address some of the BGP problems. The SDN can help handle BGP-based networks at a low cost and with minimal complexity. However, there are still many scientific and operational problems in this field of study. The main objective of this paper is to identify the challenges that the BGP facing with respect to the adoption of the SDN. The findings revealed that most researchers focused on improving convergence time, while other essential features such as scalability and privacy were overlooked.

“…BTSDN [36] proposes a practical solution by integrating SDN network to the current Internet with BGP [151], [152]. Using BTSDN, SDN and traditional network can co-exist by using Internal BGP (iBGP) and External BGP (eBGP) so that SDN can be incrementally deployed to the Internet and finally replace traditional networks.…”

Software Defined Networks has seen tremendous growth and deployment in different types of networks. Compared to traditional networks it decouples the control logic from network layer devices, and centralizes it for efficient traffic forwarding and flow management across the domain. This multilayered architecture has data forwarding devices at the bottom in data plane, which are programmed by controllers in the control plane. The high level application or management plane interacts with control layer to program the whole network and enforce different policies. The interaction among these layers is done through interfaces which work as communication/programming protocols. In this survey, we present a comprehensive study of such interfaces available for southbound, northbound, and east/westbound communication. We have classified each type into different categories based on their properties and capabilities. Virtualization of networks devices is a common practice in Software Defined Networks. This paper also analyzes interface solution which work with different virtualization schemes. In addition, the paper highlights a number of short term and long term research challenges and open issues related to SDN interfaces.
