Abstract

The disclosure provides a network path determination module, a method of determining a network path, and a non-transitory storage medium which stores computer readable instruction to execute functions related to the method of determining a network path. In an aspect, the network path determination module includes not limited to: a first port; a non-transitory storage medium; and a processor coupled to the non-transitory storage medium, configured at least to: receive, through the first port, a requested generated by a detected data flow to create a forwarding entry in a network node for the data flow; retrieve a current network topology and a network status; select a network path based on the current network topology and the network status; generate a network control instruction based on the network path which has been selected; and execute the network control instruction to forward the data flow on the network path.
