== Exercises ==
* [https://openflow.stanford.edu/display/ONL/POX+Wiki Pox/Openflow Tutorial]
* What to Submit: source code along with screenshots for those who are not exempted
=== General Hints ===
* Use the following option to get more debug info while using pox
** $ ./pox/pox.py log.level --DEBUG misc.of_tutorial
** NOTE: There are two "-" (i.e. --) used for options in mininet/pox. In the wiki, sometimes the two lines
join up and show as one line.
** Best not to use the command prompt within the VM, but to use terminals created by ssh (e.g. via Putty)
*** e.g. xterm h1 doesn't work
*** there were also issues while starting pyretic

== Requirement and Due Date for Final Report (E-Mail to Mayutan)==
{{Announcement|Note: The final report is due on April 30th.}}
* Submit your final report (in .pdf format) as well as code (in .py format) as one zipped file with your name.
 
subject line of email: Submission of work for Specialization in SDN
Name of attachment: name.zip, e.g., if when I submit the final work, the file will be named: Mayutan.zip
'''NOTE:''' You also have the opportunity to show me the code on April 21, 16-18pm.
'''NOTE:''' Your final report ([ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/llncs/latex2e/llncs2e.zip LaTeX Template]) should include:
* Title sheet showing your name and matriculation number
* 6 pages of paper review using the [http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~dkoll/files/sdn/review.docx review form].
 
  For this, you can review the papers that your group presented (3 pages for each review)
* Additionally, you can have one of the two:
** 1) Programming part: Program a simple new application (e.g. like the gardenwall example or load balancing or SFC) in ONOS. It can be done in groups.
** 2) 9 pages of reviews using the [http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~dkoll/files/sdn/review.docx review form]. These reviews should be of full papers that others have presented.
 
* One review form (3 pages each) for each of the paper your group was assigned during the course for the final presentation (Use this [http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~dkoll/files/sdn/review.docx review form]). 
Those who need to write an additional review of a paper presented during the final presentations: ().
These extra pages will be for those who don't ask questions or participate in discussions during
others' presentations. 
Therefore, highly recommended that all of you make a first and second pass of the papers belonging
to other groups.
Make sure that you write your own review. Copy/Paste reviews from other participants of the course
will not be accepted. The reviews are individual work.

==Grading==
* Each participant is required to actively attend the course (80%+ attendance) and earn 50% of the points of the exercises.
* Students will be required to do a presentation after the end of the course (April 21 2016).
* Grading will be based on a written report to be submitted by each student, which includes:
** Slides used for presentation in the seminar (25%)
** Mandatory review of SDN research papers (50%)
** ONOS application/paper-review (25%)
* No exam
