Abstract
A Software-Defined Network (SDN) distributes Proxy Correlation Index (PCI) information across an SDN data-plane. A central SDN controller receives inbound SDN signaling from a source SDN controller serving a source geographic area indicating a PCI threshold breach in the SDN data-plane in the source geographic area. The central SDN controller generates PCI information that characterizes the PCI threshold breach. The central SDN controller selects a target SDN controller in a target geographic area responsive to the PCI threshold breach. The central SDN controller transfers outbound SDN signaling having the PCI information for delivery to the target SDN controller in the target geographic area.
