Sumario: | Software-Defined Networking (SDN) facilitates flexible network management by decoupling the control plane from the data plane, enabling centralized programmability. This paper presents a practical implementation of a load balancing system based on the Round Robin algorithm, developed for experimental and educational purposes in an SDN testbed using Mininet and the ONOS controller. The proposed setup involves a set of clients and servers interconnected through OpenFlow switches, with a standalone load balancer—deployed externally from the controller—sequentially forwarding traffic to available servers. A custom monitoring dashboard, built with Python and Tkinter, provides real-time visualization of network parameters including bandwidth, throughput, server load, and packet loss. Results from test scenarios show that the system achieves stable traffic distribution and effective resource utilization under varying network conditions. The work demonstrates the viability of lightweight traffic management strategies in SDN environments and serves as a baseline for further enhancements toward adaptive or intelligent control techniques. |
