Description

Cloud networking has become code. Learn how to build a network from the ground up using open source software. You will learn the essential components that will allow you build, test, and troubleshoot ***any*** cloud network. Once you understand the fundamental networking components, you can eliminate vendor lock-in and deploy your own high performance, secure network, all from code. You develop the skills and knowledge needed to build a network from SD-LAN to SD-WAN by performing real hands on examples that just work. Build, configure, and deploy the most popular SDN, NFV, and SD-WAN technologies to create networks, control routing and bridging, and secure applications. Integrate these components with external nets, even the internet, and perform verification testing.
