Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to the application of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) to the field of software defined networking in a system and method for providing an end-to-end network comprising a plurality of software defined networks (SDNs) wherein each of the plurality of software defined networks is controlled by a software defined network controller (SDNC), the system comprising: a distributed ledger, wherein the distributed ledger is associated with a Smart Contract, wherein the Smart Contract comprises software code configured to control access by SDNCs to the distributed ledger by assessing whether a business entity and an SDNC operated by the business entity, requesting access to the distributed ledger, meet predefined trust criteria.
