Summary

In this course, students are introduced to the concept of software-defined networks (SDN). Students gradually apply their knowledge and understanding of traditional network technologies in an SDN environment by design and implementation of various network topologies and functions in simmulation environment and hardware. This subject assumes good knowledge in computer networks and basic knowledge of scripting programming languages.
