Abstract:
In order for Software Defined Network (SDN) technology to work in a military network, several identified problems need to be solved. This paper reports from experimental efforts to extend the application of SDN to a multi-domain, coalition, mobile network with wireless links and with end systems belonging to several Communities Of Interest (COI). The paper also demonstrates how SDN technology allows different network services to be integrated with a single class of Network Elements (NE). Considerations related to authentication, COI separation and intrusion prevention is given special attention during the discussions.
