[Retracted] Lightweight Statistical Approach towards TCP SYN Flood DDoS Attack Detection and Mitigation in SDN Environment
Table 2
Comparison of SDN with conventional network architecture [
16].
| Feature | Traditional network | SDN |
| Innovation | Limited hardware capacity and test environment. | Upgraded software provides fast deployment. Multitenants under centralized controller enhanced experimentations. | Configuration | Complex manual configuration. | A centralized controller provides an automated configuration. | Performance | Devices are statistically configured, having limited information. | Globally, dynamic configuration of devices has cross-layer information. | Management | It is hard to manage or change as every device needs changes separately. | Simplified management and improved delivery. Ensuring programmability by parting the control plane from the data plane. |
