Network Traffic Feature Behaviour Augmentation Fusion based Attacks Classification for Intrusion Detection System in SDN Framework

The implementation of Software-Defined Network(SDN) across multiple data centers aims to simplify thecontrol and management of networks. However, the increasingpopularity of SDN has also attracted the attention of attackers.To tackle this problem, it is essential to have an intrusiondetection system (IDS) in place, which plays a crucial role incybersecurity by addressing external threats. The advantageof SDN’s centralized nature is that it facilitates the training ofan IDS based on machine learning. However, there is a scarcityof research specifically focused on intrusion detection in SDN.Existing literature often treats SDN intrusion detection assimilar to traditional computer systems and relies on intrusiondatasets generated for those systems. We explore the issueof intrusion detection in SDN using the most recent publicdataset (InSDN). However, InSDN is an imbalanced data set.In this paper, we have recommended a method to balance thedata as well as a method to find the best features to improvethe quality of IDS using Machine Learning. In addition, wealso suggest a method of classifying SDN network traffic andnormal network traffic. At the same time, we also evaluate theefficiency of the SDN system with the load balancing systemand without the load balancing system.
