Networking suffers from various security vulnerabilities in the present paradigm due to the technical difficulties like static architectural design, provider-dependent and it is economically costly. To overcome these challenges a novel paradigm concept is introduced based on dynamic control in the network as Software Defined Firewall. Software Defined Network is an emerging reprogrammable technology which helps the administrator to control the overall network, on the other hand Firewall act as a single point perimeter to protect the network from network attacks. Combination of different paradigms led to reshaping of future. Software Defined Firewall is a new network platform to manage the networks by segregating the control plane from the data plane. This separation provides a programmatic control over the network traffic by writing rules, which act as a network attack defence. Hereby the firewall policy rules are written by analysing the traffic and packet log are mined using Association rule mining techniques. Analysis of these policy rules costs for generation of efficient rule set and multiple minimum support with probability will minimize the number of rule set which will result in effective network policy management. Software Defined Firewall provides a better solution to reduce ratio of attack traffic.

In traditional network the coupling of data plane and control plane makes the data forwarding, processing and managing of the network hard and complex. Here each switch takes its own decision, makes the network logically decentralized. To overcome the limitations in traditional network the Engineers developed a new model network known as Software Defined Network (SDN). This network the control plane is decoupled from the data plane making it less complex. It moreover has a logically centralized approach unlike the existing network. This separation enables the network control to be directly programmable and the architecture to be abstracted for applications and network services. SDN platform provides advantages like programmability, task virtualization and easy management of the network. However, it faces new challenges towards scalability and performances. It is a must to understand and analyze the performances of SDN for implementation and deployment in live network environments. SDN working with POX is studied. This paper analyses the working of POX controller and evaluates the performance metrics of POX controller for SDN environment. The emulation is done using the Emulation software.

Software Defined Networks (SDN) have become a new way to make dynamic topologies. They have great potential in both the creation and development of new network protocols and the inclusion of distributed artificial intelligence in the network. There are few emulators, like Mininet, that allow emulating a SDN in a single personal computer, but there is lack of works showing its performance and how it performs compared with real cases. This paper shows a performance comparison between Mininet and a real network when multimedia streams are being delivered. We are going to compare them in terms of consumed bandwidth (throughput), delay and jitter. Our study shows that there are some important differences when these parameters are compared. We hope that this research will be the basis to show the difference with real deployments when Mininet is used.Keywords: Multimedia delivery; Multimedia streaming; Software Defined Networks (SDNs); Mininet.www.macrothink.org/npa 37 Network Protocols and Algorithms ISSN 1943-3581 2015 IntroductionDue to the substantial improvement in terms of hardware and software for computer networks and also the number of network devices available around the world, the interconnections of devices as well as the network complexity have increased. This fact has also enhanced the way we currently process the information transmitted through the network. Over the past 30 years, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has developed and built around 5500 Request for Comments (RFC) [1]. Nowadays, Internet and other networks are able to offer huge amount of functionalities suited to the requirements of users.In general, network devices perform two main functions, i.e., the transport function and the control function. On the one hand, the transport function (data plane) that is in charge of sending data through the routes previously calculated. This function is normally performed by specialized circuits known as Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). The control function (control plane) manages the transport operation thanks to the exchanged information between network devices and the calculation of optimal routes. This allows each device to independently treat the traffic. Network administrators have available few resources to manage and increase the efficiency of the data flows.A professional of networks often finds a big challenge the fact of configuring a network and installing the needed network elements to work properly. Due to the services and the features required by the applications currently require, it is possible to increase the network efficiency if we try to manage jointly the entire network. In this way, there appears the need of developing a new technology to reduce the costs and increase the efficiency by automating policy-based flows.Software-Defined networking (SDN) is a new approach for designing, building, and managing networks that separates the network's control and forwarding planes of a better network optimization [2]. The SDN architecture decouples the netw...
