Abstract

SDN is a new network architecture that separates the network into a management plane and a forwarding plane, simplifying network configuration and reducing maintenance costs. DDoS attack is a kind of network attack method which is easy to implement and strong attack. It lacks effective countermeasures in SDN environment. This paper presents a DDoS attack mitigation scheme based on SDN architecture. Firstly, the related concepts and technologies are briefly introduced, then entropy detection and K-Means algorithm are proposed to classify traffic, and finally deal with attack traffic to mitigate the impact of DDoS attacks on SDN environment.
