Abstract
Various embodiments provide a system for modifying a channel binding in order to relay packets between a relay client and a peer in a peer-to-peer (P2P) communication event across a network. A relay server receives a request to bind a channel in order to relay the packets for the communication event. The relay server creates requirements for a communication path. The relay server sends the requirements to a Software Defined Networking (SDN) controller. The SDN controller in turn creates and installs flows and flow tables in SDN switches to relay the packets across the network for the communication event.
