Abstract

A method for processing a resource access request in a network based on a software defined network (SDN) protocol includes receiving a resource access request forwarded by a first SDN switch in the network, wherein there exists no forwarding rule matching the resource access request in the first SDN switch; obtaining, according to the resource access request, resource server information of a resource server where the requested resource is stored, wherein the resource server is located in the network; generating a forwarding rule corresponding to the resource access request according to the resource server information; and sending to the first SDN switch at least one portion of the forwarding rule corresponding to the resource access request, so that the first SDN switch forwards the resource access request according to the at least one portion of the forwarding rule.
