摘要: This paper targets on energy saving and considers network responding time for backbone networks. The objective is to find idle links as many as possible which can be put into sleep mode under the situation of quality of service (QoS)-guaranteed. This paper proposes a software defined network (SDN) based routing strategy which is especially aimed at QoS-guaranteed energy saving for backbone networks. Under SDN structure, the topology change of network can be detected directly by network controller. And network can be managed more easily and effectively. Based on the open shortest path first (OSPF) protocol, network topology can be changed as little as possible in our strategy. So, the network reconfiguring time caused by the energy saving strategy will be decreased dramatically. This makes the strategy more feasible. Then the backbone network energy optimizing problem is transformed to the maximum clique problem (MCP). And, this paper designed a routing strategy called backbone networks energy saving strategy (BNESS) for energy saving in backbone networks. Simulation result shows that our proposed strategy can save energy and QoS can be guaranteed.
