handles the decision - making processes and remotely manages networking devices.
switches, routers, firewalls, and load balancers that forward network messages to their destinations.
similar to the control plane, this allows network administrators to remotely manage network devices, monitor those
sdn controller communicates with network applications using apis

Explanation:

• Infrastructure or data plane: This plane consists of physical devices like switches, routers, firewalls, and load balancers. Their main function is to forward network messages to their intended destinations. So, it should be matched with "Switches, routers, firewalls, and load balancers that forward network messages to their destinations."
• Control plane: It is responsible for decision - making processes. It remotely manages networking devices, determining how the data should flow in the network. Thus, it should be matched with "Handles the decision - making processes and remotely manages networking devices."
• Application plane: The SDN controller communicates with network applications using APIs in this plane. It is used to develop and deploy network applications.
• Management plane: Similar to the control plane, it allows network administrators to remotely manage network devices and monitor them.

Answer:

• Infrastructure or data plane: Switches, routers, firewalls, and load balancers that forward network messages to their destinations.
• Control plane: Handles the decision - making processes and remotely manages networking devices.
• Application plane: SDN controller communicates with network applications using APIs.
• Management plane: Similar to the control plane, this allows network administrators to remotely manage network devices, monitor those.
