Another advantage of this report is its use of quantitative research. The selection of charts, tables and graphs are highly creditable in terms of measuring validity and reliability. It provides data with precise and non-bias numerical findings.

The research method of this thesis is desk research. Thus, it only makes use of sources and materials that are already available. With regard to scientific or empiric claims made herein, reference is made to the research of other authors. As a consequence, the thesis has the following limitations:

Traffic engineering is that phase of engineering that deals with the planning, geometric design and traffic operations of roads, streets and highways and their networks, terminals, abutting lands and relationships with other modes of transportation for the achievement of safe, efficient and convenient movement of people and goods.

As this demand for dynamic and unpredictable data grows, more and more devices have to be added to existing networks and configured accordingly. The need of the hour is to regulate networks centrally and as a whole rather than configure individual network devices and gain more control to achieve flexibility in existing networks.

We owe our profound gratitude to our course instructor Ms. Noor-E-Hasnin (NEH), who took keen interest on our project work and guided us all along, till the completion of our project work by providing all the necessary information for developing a complete analytical report.

This article discusses the best in class in traffic engineering for SDN with attention to four cores including flow management, fault tolerance, topology update, and traffic analysis. The challenging issues for SDN traffic engineering solutions are talked about in detail. SDN is a developing networking administration that isolates the network control plane from the data sending plane with the guarantee to significantly enhance organize asset usage, streamline network management, reduce working expenses, and promote development and advancement. For network performance optimization by dynamically analyzing, predicting, and regulating the behavior of the transmitted data, traffic engineering is an important subject. Over the last two decades
