Scalable and secure Network programmability is the foundation of the cloud networking computing paradigm known as Software-Defined Router for High Throughput Networks. With a novel method of building and deploying router software, it therefore becomes one of the rapidly expanding new technologies in the internet world. The control plane and the forwarding routing data plane are two distinct modules (planes) that house the router's control and data forwarding functions. Special Software Defined Router switches on the data plane are made to either forward incoming packets to the controller or to their destination by encrypting the data according to the preconfigured routing table (flow table). Software-defined router switches' routing capability is controlled by a controller program on the control plane. Software Defined Router is a centralized network paradigm thanks to this distinctive program. The core feature of a software-defined router that can introduce attack vectors such as spoofing, denial service, man-in-the-middle, and other malicious attempts is routing. We will be examining the current state of secure routing in software in this paper. We will go over some potential security issues with secure and scalable routing, along with some current solutions. Ultimately, we will point out the drawbacks and provide alternative options.
