Hello @Lan_Ci
Find here some potential research topics related to SD-WAN that you might consider for your master's thesis:
-- Evaluation of SD-WAN performance and QoS: Investigate the impact of SD-WAN on network performance and Quality of Service (QoS) compared to traditional WAN architectures.
-- Optimization of SD-WAN: Evaluate techniques for optimizing SD-WAN performance, such as dynamic routing, load balancing, and application-based routing.
-- Security in SD-WAN: Investigate security challenges in SD-WAN and propose solutions to address these challenges, such as encryption, authentication, and access control.
-- Multi-Cloud connectivity with SD-WAN: Explore the challenges and benefits of using SD-WAN for connecting multiple clouds, such as public and private clouds, and evaluate different SD-WAN architectures for multi-cloud connectivity.
-- SD-WAN in IoT environments: Investigate the use of SD-WAN for IoT environments and evaluate different SD-WAN architectures for supporting IoT applications.
As for simulators or emulators to use for your research, here are a few options:
-- GNS3: A network emulator that allows you to create network topologies using virtual machines and virtual network devices.
-- EVE-NG: A network emulator that allows you to create complex network topologies using virtual machines and virtual network devices.
-- OpenNet: An open-source network emulator that allows you to create virtual networks and simulate various network scenarios.
There are many other simulators and emulators available that may be suitable for your research.
