Análisis de Implementación de una red SDN en el Campus Sur de la Universidad Politécnica Salesiana

Abstract

In this technical project we seek to analyze the operation of an SDN network in the current environment of the Salesian Polytechnic University, which has a hierarchical network in production, and this will be a basis to be able to check the current results with the results of a managed network by software, by simulating the two networks and performing the necessary tests of their functionality and administration service. The SDN network will contain a structure like the current network of the UPS south campus, and which seeks to obtain a development in terms of administration and growth of the same, considering the progress that network infrastructures have had in the market in the Currently, the increase in demand and solutions by students and the team that works at the university to provide a better service in the institution is also addressed. The simulators that have been developed by each of the brands that are dedicated to the manufacture of network equipment, are defined in the best options to be able to simulate and check the functionalities of each of the networks to be evaluated. These simulators currently already have the necessary tools such as equipment models, communication protocols, state-of-the-art connections, etc. The parameters of the quality of service of a network will be the ones that will govern this evaluation of networks and are the ones that will support us when giving a verdict at the end of the development of this project, concluding with determining with real data what strong points a network encompasses. SDN network compared with a hierarchical network and to be able to make the necessary recommendations for the implementation of this in the Salesian Polytechnic University.
