Software defined Networking (SDN) such as Open-Flow decouples the control plane from forwarding devices and embeds it into one or more external entities called controllers. We implemented a framework in OpenFlow through which business customers receive higher Quality of Service (QoS) than besteffort customers in all conditions (e.g. failure conditions). In the demonstration, we stream video clips (business and best-effort customer's traffic) through an emulated OpenFlow topology. During the
