Introduction
Software Defined Networks (SDNs) to separate control plane and forward level networks. Implementation of control plane software
and data collection mechanisms built into OpenFlow protocol promise to be excellent tools for implementing Machine Learning
Network (ML) control applications. The first step in this direction is to understand what kind of data can be collected in SDNs and
how information can be learned from that data in this paper. Explain how many ML traffic classification techniques can be applied.
Methods
a traffic classification architecture based in SDN that allows the collection of
trac data both in SDN networks and in legacy networks. It is based solely on
OpenFlow and can be implemented in an SDN app in the controller, paving the
way for the use of data driven learning algorithms for network control.
The collected data has very deferent features with values in deferent scales.
In order to avoid features with large scale values to overlap smaller scale ones
causing bad performance in the ML algorithms, the collected data is treated to
scale and center the feature values. This is done by calculating the standard
scores for each data feature.

Results
The trac generated by the host is then sent via port mirroring to the OpenFlow
switch where the SDN application in the controller performs the data collection.
This results in a data-set where the application responsible for the features mea-
sured in each TCP connection is known.
Conclusions
All authors want to solve The massive growth of the Internet users over the past
years has been accompanied with a rapid evolution of networking systems such
as, Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a network architecture approach that
enables the network to be intelligently and centrally controlled, or programmed
using software applications. This helps operators manage the entire network
consistently and holistically.
