| dc.description | With the help of virtualization technology tools, new, more efficient, and flexible infrastructure network platforms have been developed, such as software-defined networking (SDN) as a practical solution by separating the functions of the data and control planes. The main objective of the research was the implementation of a testbed to evaluate the performance and behavior of an SDN network running on the IPv6 protocol. The scope of the research ranged from the design to the implementation of an experimental laboratory environment. The methodology used consisted of applying the Top-Down technique. Five phases were structured: requirements were identified, the conceptual design was executed, detailed subsystem engineering was established, and the system was integrated and validated with implementation in a controlled environment. The results obtained were: successful validation of the IPv6 protocol, guaranteed delivery of text and image packets, and low traffic latency. Finally, it is concluded that validating the use of SDN networks over IPv6 provides clear advantages in terms of network infrastructure flexibility, centralized traffic management, and efficient traffic management. Interoperability ensures compatibility with different types of hardware when integrating devices and platforms, while respecting industry standards. | en-US |
| dc.description | Con la ayuda de herramientas de tecnologías de virtualización se han desarrollado nuevas plataformas de redes de infraestructura más eficientes y flexibles, como las redes definidas por software (SDN, por sus siglas en inglés), una solución práctica al separar las funciones de los planos de datos y de control. El objetivo principal de la investigación fue implementar un banco de pruebas para evaluar el rendimiento y comportamiento de una red SDN ejecutándose sobre el protocolo IPv6. El alcance de la investigación abarcó desde el diseño hasta la puesta en marcha de un entorno en un laboratorio experimental; la metodología empleada consistió en la aplicación de la técnica Top-Down. Se estructuraron cinco fases: se identificaron los requisitos, se ejecutó el diseño conceptual, se estableció la ingeniería de detalle del subsistema, se integró y se validó el sistema con la puesta en marcha en un ambiente controlado. Los resultados obtenidos fueron: la correcta validación del protocolo IPv6, la garantía en la entrega de paquetes de texto e imágenes y la baja latencia del tráfico. Se concluye que con la validación del uso de redes SDN sobre IPv6 se obtienen ventajas claras en la flexibilidad en la infraestructura de red, administración centralizada del tráfico y eficacia en la gestión del tráfico. La interoperabilidad garantiza la compatibilidad con los diferentes tipos de hardware en el momento de la integración de dispositivos y plataformas respetando los estándares de la industria. | es-ES |
