Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The study of this thesis is focused on reducing the link failure detection time in OSPF network. When a link failure occurs, OSPF protocol detects it using RouterDeadInterval time. This timer is fired only after a predefined time interval, thus increasing the time of convergence after the link failure. There are previous studies to reduce the RouterDeadInterval time, but they introduce other effects which are discussed later in the thesis. So, a novel approach is proposed in this thesis to reduce the link failure detection time with the help of emerging network architecture Software Defined Networking (SDN) and OpenFlow Protocol.
