A software-defined networking (SDN) method. The SDN method according to an exemplary embodiment may be used in managing and operating SDN-based network resources in an optical communications network, a fixed mobile convergence subscriber network, a wired broadband subscriber network, a distributed mobile communications base station network, etc. 1. A software-defined networking (SDN) method in an optical communications network , the SDN method comprising: 'defining a control parameter based on software in response to a traffic request of a node by monitoring a traffic flow, and transmitting a control command with respect to the software-defined control parameter to one or more nodes through a control channel by using an OpenFlow; and', 'a control device transmitting a control command, comprisingthe one or more nodes executing the control command, wherein the one or more nodes have received the control command from the control device.2. The SDN method of claim 1 , wherein the control parameter is related to physical layer transmission claim 1 , which comprises at least one of a wavelength conversion claim 1 , a channel interval claim 1 , a bandwidth claim 1 , a transmission speed claim 1 , a modulation format claim 1 , and path switching claim 1 , wherein each control parameter is software-defined.3. The SDN method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting of the control command comprises:detecting the traffic request of the one or more nodes by monitoring the traffic flow;defining, based on software, the control parameter in response to the detected traffic request; andgenerating the control command based on the software-defined control parameter and transmitting the generated control command to the one or more nodes through the control channel by using an OpenFlow Application Programming Interface (API).4. The SDN method of claim 3 , wherein the defining of the control parameter based on software comprises defining each control parameter based on software in accordance ...
