Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm has the benefits of programmable network elements by separating the control and the forwarding planes, efficiency through optimized routing and flexibility in network management. As the energy costs contribute largely to the overall costs in networks, energy efficiency has become a significant design requirement for modem networking mechanisms. However, designing energy efficient solutions is non-trivial since they need to tackle the trade-off between energy efficiency and network performance. In this article, we address the energy efficiency capabilities that can be utilized in the emerging SDN. We provide a comprehensive and novel classification of software-based energy efficient solutions into subcategories of traffic aware, end system aware and rule placement. We propose general optimization models for each subcategory, and present the objective function, the parameters and constraints to be considered in each model. Detailed information on the characteristics of state-of-the-art methods, their advantages, drawbacks are provided. Hardware-based solutions used to enhance the efficiency of switches are also described. Furthermore, we discuss the open issues and future research directions in the area of energy efficiency in SDN.
