The security of network infrastructures is one of the tedious tasks in modern networks. Indeed, nowadays’ demanded security must have as a characteristic the dynamism and the capacity to adapt to the context of the exchanges, in other words, security must not influence network performance. To meet this need, network automation through a software-defined network (SDN) controller can be used. SDN a new paradigm, allowing through a controller to orchestrate the entire network architecture. In this paper we propose a new solution for the dynamic generation of security policies between different MPLS VPN sites by adopting the SDN approach.
