Abstract
A method for processing an event between a controller and a network device is disclosed. A method for processing an event in a network device comprises the steps of: receiving an event notification registration request from a controller; monitoring the occurrence of an event corresponding to the event notification registration request and; when an event occurs, notifying the event occurrence to the controller. Thus, the controller can reduce the load through reducing the number of times of message transmissions for monitoring the event by a switch.
