As a global community, the Internet is comprised of thousands of administrative entities that operate and interact with each other. Transferring data among these entities is possible due to the process of routing, which is challenging due to the lack of centrality. Consequently, the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) can play a vital role in the routing process as a central hub for disseminating routing information to the various autonomous systems. Yet, the BGP poses security vulnerability due to the difficulty of validation and authentication. Recent studies argue that it would be beneficial to apply the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) approach to address some of the BGP problems. The SDN can help handle BGP-based networks at a low cost and with minimal complexity. However, there are still many scientific and operational problems in this field of study. The main objective of this paper is to identify the challenges that the BGP facing with respect to the adoption of the SDN. The findings revealed that most researchers focused on improving convergence time, while other essential features such as scalability and privacy were overlooked.

“…Una variante de las redes SDN son las Wireless Software Defined Networking o por sus siglas WSDN, las cuales también tienen su fundamento en el software, pero introducen un número de nuevos elementos como, el medio inalámbrico, la funcionalidad de expandir el plano de datos y una estructura altamente dinámica [3]. WSDN asegura una simple y escalable arquitectura de red y una efectiva gestión de movilidad para áreas geográficamente extensas y un servicio estándar de proveedor de red [5]. Existen muchos requerimientos que debe satisfacer una red WSDN como la necesidad de soportar la movilidad de nodos y los cambios en una topología de red, o de solucionar la falta de disponibilidad característica de los enlaces inalámbricos [6].…”

“…In [14], the authors reviewed and classified the security threats in software defined mobile networking (SDMN) such as spoofing, tampering, repudiation, information disclosure, denial of service, elevation known as STRIDE. The authors in [60] compare the performance of several communication protocols in SDWNs including border gateway protocol (BGP), NETCONF when facing STRIDE security threat. In [23], the authors provide a comprehensive survey of security threats of SDWNs related to a centralized controller as well as the separation of the control and data planes.…”

The exponentially increasing number of ubiquitous wireless devices connected to the Internet in Internet of Things (IoT) networks highlights the need for a new paradigm of data flow management in such large-scale networks under software defined wireless networking (SDWN). The limited power and computation capability available at IoT devices as well as the centralized management and decision making approach in SDWN introduce a whole new set of security threats to the networks. In particular, the authentication mechanism between the controllers and the forwarding devices in SDWNs is a key challenge from both secrecy and integrity aspects. Conventional authentication protocols based on public key infrastructure (PKI) are no longer sufficient for these networks considering the large-scale and heterogeneity nature of the networks as well as their deployment cost, and security vulnerabilities due to key distribution and storage. We propose a novel security protocol based on physical unclonable functions (PUFs) known as hardware security primitives to enhance the authentication security in SDWNs. In this approach, digital PUFs are developed using the inherent randomness of the nanomaterials of Resistive Random Access Memory (ReRAM) that are embedded in most IoT devices to enable a secure authentication and access control in these networks. These PUFs are developed based on a novel approach of multi states, in which the natural drifts due to the physical variations in the environment are predicted to reduce the potential errors in challenge-response pairs of PUFs being tested in different situations. We also proposed a PUF-based PKI protocol to secure the controller in SDWNs. The performance of the developed ReRAM-based PUFs are evaluated in the experimental results. Moreover, the effectiveness of the proposed multi-state machine learning technique to predict the drifts of the PUFs' responses in different temperature and biased conditions is presented. of such networks. In these networks, whenever the network administrators need to change or update a parameter of the protocols, they may need to re-configure all related devices (i.e. routers, switches, and firewalls) throughout the network. Depending on the size of the network, it can be a burdensome and time-consuming process.The recently developed SDN technology aims at addressing the aforementioned challenges by separating the control and data planes. In the SDN paradigm, instead of designating the decision making to every active components in the network, this will be handled by a centralized controller called the network operating system (NOS). For instance, when a switch receives a packet, it chooses the proper action (forward, drop, modify, sending to the controller, etc.) based on the rules (flow table), which are defined by the programmable network applications at the centralized controller that rely on the NOS [39]. The communication between the NOS and the forwarding layer or the data plane is established by some protocols such as OpenFlow [49]. In contrast to ...
