Few months back when i started studying Networking i was Really Confused between
Control Plane traffic and Data Plane traffic.But here is an Easy Example on how i understood it.
Control Plane - This traffic is generated between router to router, Now you must be thinking what kinda traffic is generated routers? if you have gone through any routing protocols you must remember they exchange lots of packets in order to form neighbor ship one of them is 'Hello' Packet it is generated by the router in order to stay alive among it neighbors. So this is Control plane traffic for you. Just remember if someone asks you this Control plane traffic is a traffic generated by a router to a router.
Now what's Data Plane then?
Data plane - Data plane is nothing but the Data generated by a user for a User . Control plane is no way concerned to this.
That's it.
Again, My blog is not for someone who want's in-dept Information.
If you didn't find this explanation good then Read this Blog post by Brian McGahan.
