Future internet is required to be flexible, scalable, reliable, secure and having other advanced features. Software Defined Networking (SDN) fulfills most of the task to achieve require functioning. OpenFlow technology is the first standard for SDN which executes the protocols based on the required application. It is also capable for controlling multiple hardware or software switches from a single controller. This can be achieved by the separation of data plane and control plane from a network core devices. In this paper, a proposed architecture of an OpenFlow based small campus network is deployed. The performance analysis for a custom designed network model is achieved by executing few networking test on a defined nodes using network control protocols. The performance analysis of bandwidth, throughput and other network parameters between nodes for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) connection is also performed. A custom model has been designed using a prototype network emulator that is Mininet and the code for network topology is executed in Python script. Keywords OpenFlow SDN Mininet Python
