Lab Architecture
This Hands-on Training consists of a simulated network environment with hosts, switches, and an SDN controller using OpenFlow.
Why this Lab?
Practice on different Software-Defined Networking (SDN) use cases: routing, security & load balancing. You will play with the SDN controller and analyze the OpenFlow call flows.
