Network operators cannot change their foot-print to upgrade the entire network to support SDN from scratch. Hence, network operators adapted the original SDN concept into a hybrid SDN approach to have a pragmatic, evolutionary, and economically viable solution. This article tests an SDN architecture based on a hierarchical structure of a Software-Defined Transport Networking (SDTN) controller, which deals with the end-to-end service provision and topology collection on top of a set of SDN controllers for each technological domain. The authors demonstrate L3/L2 VPN service deployment using an underlay multi-domain IP/Optical network in a field trial. The approach allows a service provider to migrate brownfield scenarios into SDN domains using programmatic interfaces. © 2021 IEEE.
