Topology Awareness Based Virtual Network Mapping Algorithm of Software Defined Optical Network

In the software defined optical network (SDON) for virtual network services, there still exists unbalanced traffic load distribution in SDON. The traditional load balance mapping method exists in the problem of heavy load of key nodes in optical network and low request acceptance rate of virtual network. In this paper, a virtual mapping method of optical network based on topology awareness is proposed. When the controller of optical network is defined by software, the topology information of nodes and links in the whole network is acquired, and the relative balance weight of each node and link is calculated by combining the connectivity factor. When the virtual network service arrives, the optical network is based on the bandwidth of virtual network service the method of node mapping and link mapping is needed to improve the success rate and balance of virtual network mapping, and avoid the local overload of optical network resources.
