Description
Introduction to Software Defined Networking - OpenFlow and VxLAN by Vishal Shukla is an educational guide to understanding Software Defined Networking (SDN). This book focuses on two key protocols: OpenFlow, which enables the control plane of networking devices, and VxLAN, a method for virtualizing Layer 2 networks. The author provides in-depth explanations of both technologies, including their purposes, components, and packet structures. The book begins by introducing SDN and its applications, before delving into the specifics of OpenFlow and VxLAN. It covers topics such as OpenFlow events, case studies using Wireshark captures, and detailed analyses of various OpenFlow packets. Similarly, it explores VxLAN's purpose, events, and packet structures. This book is suitable for developers, testers, network administrators, and anyone looking to learn about SDN from the ground up. By reading this guide, you'll gain a comprehensive understanding of OpenFlow and VxLAN, essential technologies in the world of Software Defined Networking.
