Abstract:
   Software-Defined Networking (SDN) can be defined as a new approach
   for network programmability.  Network programmability in this context
   refers to the capacity to initialize, control, change, and manage
   network behavior dynamically via open interfaces as opposed to
   relying on closed-box solutions and proprietary interfaces.  SDN
   emphasizes the role of software in running networks through the
   introduction of an abstraction for the data forwarding plane and, by
   doing so, separates it from the control plane.  This separation
   allows faster innovation cycles at both planes as experience has
   already shown.  However, there is increasing confusion as to what
   exactly SDN is, what is the layer structure in an SDN architecture
   and how do layers interface with each other.  This document aims to
   answer these questions and provide a concise reference document for
   SDNRG, in particular, and the SDN community, in general, based on
   relevant peer-reviewed literature and documents in the RFC series.
