            Abstract : 
This paper describes RAON which is a novel solution for tackling scalability in OpenFlow networks. This approach recursively abstracts its underlying networks as OpenFlow switches to reduce complexity and to increase manageability. The design and early prototype of RAON shows very promising and graceful use cases of various scenarios.
