The course covers the basic concepts of network virtualisation and new network architecture. Special
\nattention is paid to software-defined networks and their theoretical and practical applications. Students will
\nbe introduced to a new paradigm of computer networks that introduces a high level of flexibility in the
\nmanagement and introduction of new services. Students study the theoretical applications of software-defined
\nnetworks and the possibilities of practical applications through the OpenFlow protocol.<\/p>\n
An overview of traditional network architectures. Packet switching. Data centres. Traditional switching
\narchitectures. Autonomous and dynamic forwarding tables. Forwarding logic. Network Functions
\nVirtualisation (NFV). The need for a new virtualisation network framework. Benefits of NFV.
\nThe concept of virtualisation of resources, networks and network functions. Application of NFV.
\nSoftware-defined networking (SDN). Evolution of network switches and control plan. SDN in data
\ncentres. Evolution of network topologies. Steps towards the implementation of SDN. Sustainable SDN
\ninteroperability. Basics of SDN networks and their characteristics. SDN operations. SDN devices. SDN
\ncontrollers. SDN applications. Alternative SDN methods. OpenFlow protocol. Alternative approaches and
\nnew practical applications of SDN.<\/p>\n
Selection of design tools and methodologies for SDN system design. System modelling. Design of
\nvarious systems based on defined requirements. Analysis of options for integration with different
\ntechnologies and types of networks. The study of standards and ways of functioning of OpenFlow protocol. Connecting controllers and monitoring network packets. Detailed analysis of OpenFlow messages. Practical application and capturing of packets using Wireshark protocol analyser.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
