Abstract
The data packet statistics sent by OpenFlow compliant switches cumulatively includes statistics about control traffic which is used for network control and management. This reduces the accuracy of calculation of QoS metrics and thus hampers network monitoring. We present here a novel algorithm to accurately measure the fraction of control packets in SDN within 3% error rate.
