Description
It is critical for both network and security personnel to be aware of the state of the SDN infrastructure to maintain network stability. Associating logged events that have occurred within the SDN controller as well as network state information provided by the SDN-enabled components is essential to compile an accurate risk assessment and troubleshoot network outages.
