Software Defined Network (SDN) is a network modelling that separates the control plane and data plane. SDN is a new form of paradigm used for large-scale networks, one of which is for routing. Most types of routing used today use single-path routing. Single-path only uses one path as data transmission. This will result in reduced performance on the network which is often referred to as network congestion. In this test, the routing algorithm used is Breadth First Search (BFS) by modifying the path so that congestion on the network can be minimised. The BFS algorithm is implemented using Mininet emulator, Ryu Controller, and fat-tree topology. In the test, 20 scenarios were used with a bandwidth of 50 - 1000 Mbps within 15 seconds. Tests were conducted to measure the performance of the BFS algorithm, namely the path and QOS (Quality Of Service) parameters which include testing delay, packet loss, jitter, and throughput. The data obtained in testing using the conventional BFS algorithm is compared with the modified BFS algorithm data in the same test method. In path testing, the modified BFS algorithm is superior and in parameter testing, it is produced with a degraded percentage value in delay (65%), packet loss (99%), jitter (84%), and throughput has increased by (41%). So the modified BFS algorithm is superior due to the utilisation of path modification for routing optimisation which is more effective in handling network congestion.
