1. Control plane monitoring: CPMan monitors various types of control plane metrics that include control message, system metrics.
   We collect stats information for six types of control message and those are PACKET_IN, PACKET_OUT, FLOW_MOD, FLOW_REMOVED, STATS_REQUEST, STATS_REPLY.
   We also collect stats information for four types of system metrics that include CPU, memory, disk I/O, network I/O.
   Note that the monitoring granularity is 1 minute.
2. Enhanced mastership management: Work-In-Progress.

Control message subsystem

This subsystem is used to aggregate and collect various types of control message from network devices. Followings are the components of the subsystem.

• ControlMessageProvider
  • Collect and aggregate OpenFlow messages. Note that message aggregation relies on MetricsService.
  • Abstract OpenFlow message into protocol agnostic control message type.
• ControlMessageManager
  • Transfer the aggregated control message statistics to application layer.
• ControlMessageApplication
  • Query and store control message statistics into Round-Robin-Database (RRD) through ControlPlaneMonitor service.
