Software defined networks architecture enhances the security potential of adaptive networks
Main Article Content
Abstract
The software can have autonomous configuration and secure network operations thanks to Software- Defined Networks (SDN) architecture. The present paper aims to present a software-defined networks architecture that enhances network security. Four themes are presented: The foundation of SDN is creating a network system so that programs can be written to manage network resources effectively in terms of time and security. The second issue outlines the three layers and two links that make up the architecture of a software-defined networks. The third issue explains the importance of SDN to the network. This topic outlines and addresses the availability, reliability, security, and performance issues network explicitly described in a secure network's system design. The final section guides creating an SDN that maximizes the network's security capabilities. The research findings that help network systems in terms of security and high efficiency from the infrastructure level to reducing maintenance costs on networking are extended in the final portion provided. Thus, research into software-defined networks designs is necessary to provide a safe network appropriate for dynamic networking technologies.
