Abstract:
   This document defines the methodologies for benchmarking control
   plane performance of SDN controllers. SDN controller is a core
   component in software-defined networking architecture that controls
   the network behavior. Terminology related to benchmarking SDN
   controllers is described in the companion terminology documentI-D
   sdn-controller-benchmark-term. SDN controllers have been implemented
   with many varying designs in order to achieve their intended network
   functionality. Hence, the authors have taken the approach of
   considering an SDN controller as a black box, defining the
   methodology in a manner that is agnostic to protocols and network
   services supported by controllers. The intent of this document is to
   provide a standard mechanism to measure the performance of all
   controller implementations.
