Abstract

In this paper, we show our design and implementation method of application based routing using OpenFlow that is a promising future internet enabling technology. This method provides more flexible and dynamic redirection because of OpenFlow's new potential abilities and thus giving new opportunities to the future internet that are currently not available. This method relies on three important ideas which are; the content based networking, decision making by the network in a similar manner to anycast and the participation of user clients in providing the service. All this is done using the newly invented OpenFlow. It is done through slight modification to the content server and client, thus imposing small changes to the application layer.
