Load balancing in SDN using effective traffic engineering method

The traditional Internet defined by the TCP/IP was no more able to accommodate huge amount of traffic in order to accommodate large number of devices. To overcome this and to solve the problem of wasting of network resources, SDN is considered as one of the best approaches. SDN traffic engineering gives the immense solution to enhance the network performance at both traffic and resource levels. Being the centralized authority SDN is able to give better results in network load balancing and improve delay and loss performance. In this paper, we use two layer controller architecture with the name of Load Balancing in SDN using Effective Traffic Engineering Method (LBTEM) in order to maintain the throughput of the network without any delay in packet reception. At the same time we are taking care to minimize the overall network energy consumption.
