Abstract:
Network management includes a wide range of topics such as performance, security, monitoring, debugging and so on. The network monitoring plays a vital role and can cover a wide range of network management requirements. Monitoring is the only way to know the correct network performance in accordance with the network design. In order to understand what is happening on the network and how network performance over time, the network should have a reporting system. Today, the reporting is done using network monitoring tools. In traditional networks, network monitoring is done using additional hardware which imposes high costs, complexity and also additional traffic overheads to the network. But in software defined networks, according to the capabilities of this networks, monitoring can be done with lower costs and complexity and also carried less traffic overhead. According to the development of software defined networks, monitoring in this networks have been studied in this thesis
