Abstract :
This paper presents an upgrade for OpenFlow 1.0 extension module [1]. The new module developed for the simulation of OpenFlow 1.3 based networks with OMNeT++, a well-known, widely-used modular simulation framework, which offers a high degree of experiment support. It focuses mainly on modelling the OpenFlow switch and controller with a particular attention on the aspects related to support load balancing, fault tolerance, Quality of Service, and the extensible match. Subsequently, we describe in detail the general architecture of the module and its components with particular emphasis on the switch module.
