Abstract

Flow Management is a key concern to ensure the Quality of Service in Software-Defined Network (SDN). This paper introduces an analytical model using M/M/c/K queueing where the arrival of flows is governed by Poisson process forming a single queue and there are ‘c’ number of controllers whose service times are exponential having a finite buffer ‘K’. The loss due to Reneging and Retention of flows in a Multi-Controller SDN is initially evaluated. A Cost model has been formulated to estimate the effect of Retention of Reneged flows on Total Expected Cost per unit time. The results are simulated which validates that the Total Expected Cost per unit time is a function of service rate of the controller and M/M/c/K queueing model have significant influence on the performance of a Multi-Controller SDN.
