I.Introduction
Computer networks are a complex technology that enables end-devices to
communicate with each other. A typical network infrastructure includes routers, switches,
servers, web-servers, firewalls intrusion prevention systems and other devices. Efficiency,
reliability, flexibility and robustness are the requirements for processing and man-aging the
tremendous amount of data sent over the network. In contrast, reactive flow setup occurs when
the OpenFlow switch has to send the packet to the controller for processing. Once the controller
decides how to process the flow that information is cached on the OpenFlow switch and the
SDN controller determines how long to keep the cache alive.

II.Objective
The objective in this experiment are:
• Using OpenFlow protocol to communicate OVS-switch to ONOS controller
• Testing connection two end-divide on OpenFlow protocol
• Advantage of suffix, prefix and sub-net
• Problems and Advantages of using ONOS controller

III.Practice
Setup the experiment two computer installed OVS-switch and ONOS Controller with
OpenFlow protocol to communicate each other.
