Abstract

In this paper, we are going to investigate the attack-aware link assignment for the connectivity of switches to SDN controllers under DDoS attacks. The infected or broken link of switch to controller will create disconnection in network and interruption in services. As a result, such as reliability and availability will be impaired. Therefore, on the basis of the analysis, we are going to highlight the importance of the attack-aware link-assignment for SDN switches to controllers.
