I am learning about SDN and networking, and then I reach a point where I see:
SDN has a logically-centralised controller
My Question: does logically-centralised controller refer to, the fact that in SDN data and control planes are separated? If not, how can it be explained?
Best Answer
Actually logically-centralized is about having a physically distributed control plane to achieve scalability and reliability. However, logically it seems like a single centralized controller.
That definition is stated in the most comprehensive SDN survey. (Also, a great starting point if you are learning about SDN).
