Description
Software Defined Network (SDN) provides a solution to traditional network architecture's drawbacks, where closed equipment like switches and routers have tightly coupled hardware and software. SDN allows the creation of virtual networks controlled by software, providing benefits like rapid topology creation, enhanced security and performance isolation for different traffic types. It offers networking and management opportunities with programmability and flexibility by operating on a centralized control plane, separating data and control planes. The centralized controller, directs information flow through the interfaces to network elements. Despite advantages, SDN faces security threats like DoS attacks and intrusions. One of SDN's most promising aspects is its potential to enhance network security through Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS). IDS integration within SDN enables effective threat detection to safeguard devices and data. The chapter briefly outlines IDS implementation in SDN and demonstrates SDN's capacity to revolutionize modern network management and security. 2026, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
