Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019231923A1] A self-balancing network may be created by establishing a single control point for a software- defined network (SDN). The SDN includes one or more network slices and utilizes a first network segment using non-routable IP addresses, a second network segment using routable IP addresses, and a third network segment. A first device and a second device are added to a network slice of the one or more network slices of the SDN. The first device is coupled to the first network segment. A network policy is obtained as a part of a service-level agreement for the network slice and at least one of the first network segment, the second network segment, or the third network segment, is configured, by the single control point, to enforce the network policy for communication between the first device and the second device.
