SDN Lab Series
The labs provide learning experiences on essential SDN topics
• Mininet
• Legacy networks, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)
• FRR routing, an open routing implementation
• MPLS networks – early efforts toward SDN
• SDN fundamentals – controllers, switches
• ONOS controller
• Open Virtual Switch (OVS)
• Traffic isolation with VXLAN
• OpenFlow
• Interconnection between SDN and legacy Networks, etc.

SDN Lab Series
Lab experiments
• Lab 1: Introduction to Mininet
• Lab 2: Legacy Networks: BGP Example as a Distributed System and Autonomous Forwarding Decisions
• Lab 3: Early efforts of SDN: MPLS example of a control plane that establishes semi-static forwarding
paths
• Lab 4: Introduction to SDN
• Lab 5: Configuring VXLAN to Provide Network Traffic Isolation
• Lab 6: Introduction to OpenFlow
• Lab 7: Routing within an SDN network
• Lab 8: Interconnection between legacy networks and SDN networks
• Lab 9: Configuring Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS)
• Lab 10: Applying Equal-cost Multi-path Protocol (ECMP) within SDN networks

4
SDN Lab Series
• The goal of the SDN Lab Series is to provide a practical
experience to students and IT practitioners
• The labs provide background information which is reinforced
with hands-on activities
• A good book on SDN network (which matches the SDN Lab
Series) is “Software Defined Networking, A Comprehensive
Approach”

5
Organization of Lab Manuals
Each lab starts with a section Overview
• Objectives
• Lab settings: passwords, device names
• Roadmap: organization of the lab
Section 1
• Background information of the topic being covered (e.g., Introduction to SDN)
• Section 1 is optional (i.e., the reader can skip this section and move to lab directions)
Section 2… n
• Step-by-step directions
