Hi All, "Many vendors are rolling out a controller because it is the core of an OpenFlow-enabled network. It sits between network devices at one end, and a set of applications at the other. Applications communicate with the controller to request network services. The controller uses the OpenFlow protocol to configure network devices and choose the optimal path through the network for application traffic" --*networkcomputing.com*
Up to my knowledge Controller is a software not a protocol. I feel there should be a means of standardizing the control design if so, "*what are the minimum information required by the controller to configure the traffic or implement traffic flow policies ?* * * Openflow/SDN Geeks please shed your knowledge on this! Thanks, Shashaa *(Shashaankar)*
