Network issues in virtual machine migration

Software Defined Networking (SDN) is based basically on three features: centralization of the control plane, programmability of network functions and traffic engineering. The network function migration poses interesting problems that we try to expose and solve in this paper. Content Distribution Network virtualization is presented as use case.
