Course Overview
Software-defined networking (SDN) has recently attracted both researchers in academia and big players in communication technologies, and is currently probably the 'hottest' topic in computer networking. This course is a continuation of the "Introduction to SDN" course and we will focus on gaining an advanced knowledge of SDN. The course is organized as a block course. Please see the following "Schedule" table for a detailed structure. The course will focus on reading and understanding recent papers in the SDN field to gain an in depth understanding of the current state of the art and potential research topics. We will also do a lot of exercises to familiarize ourselves with SDN tools.
For all parts of the course, exercises will be provided, in which students must obtain at least 50% of the total points and active participation in the group discussions to be admitted to the examination of this course. The exam is taken by submitting a report of 10-15 pages summarizing the lessons learned during the lectures and exercises as well as the research papers investigated (a LaTeX template will be provided). Depending on the number of attendees, several parts will be conducted in teams of students.

Requirements
- Basic knowledge in computer networking (e.g., successful completion of the course "Computer Networks") and object oriented programming is required.
- Completion of the course "Introduction to SDN", exceptions can be obtained on a case by case basis.
- Each participant is required to actively attend the course and earn 50% of the points of the exercise.
- Written report at the end of the course. The report should include the following:
- Exercises results + code
- Short report on the group discussion papers
- Report on the paper presented by team-X for the final presentation

Exercises
- 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.
