Software-defined networking (SDN) paradigm, with the flexible and logically centralized control, enables dynamically minimizing the network energy consumption by redirecting paths of packets. However, the links and switches are designed to accommodate maximum traffic volume and their power consumption is not traffic proportional. Moreover, there exists a trade-off between energy efficiency and network performance that need to be considered together. Addressing these issues, we propose an energy efficiency metric named Ratio for Energy Saving in SDN (RESDN) that quantifies energy efficiency based on link utility intervals. We provide integer programming formulation and method for maximizing the RESDN of the network. To the best of our knowledge, RESDN approach is novel as it measures how links are profitably utilized in terms of the amount of energy they consume with respect to their utility. We analyze our approach considering various metrics of interest and different types of SDN enabled switches. Experiments show that maximizing the RESDN value improves energy efficiency while maintaining acceptable network performance. In comparison to state-of-the-art utility-based heuristics, RESDN method achieves up to 30% better ratio for energy saving, 14.7 watts per switch power saving, 38% link saving, 2 hops decrease in average path length, and 5% improved traffic proportionality.
