Abstract(in English) As SDN(Software Defined Network) controllers and switch appliances are released by major network vendors, SDN has been practically introduced to enterprise networks. For the enterprises, it is probably most safe process that they introduce SDN to a part of their network, test & check it and make a decision on next deployment in their networks. In such case, remained legacy IP networks which have redundancy on Layer 3 must be connected with the introduced SDN. But it seems that SDNs don’t have enough Layer 3 functions yet. So we verified the connection and found a solution in which legacy router appliances are applied in the SDN and the almost of communication data packets are not pass through the routers. This solution is probably not enough to support SDN Controllers’ additional functions, but is very useful for application of Layer 3 functions to SDNs at low cost and easily.
