This course provides an overview of SDN concepts, architecture, and network design elements, and explians how SDN-enabled applications can dynamically control network behavior and make deploying new solutions more efficient and less time consuming.

You will learn how SDN is used in networking environments and how SDN separates the control and data plane using OpenFlow as the open standard
transport mechanism. SDN “use cases” are utilized to demonstrate how SDN can be used in… Show more

This course provides an overview of SDN concepts, architecture, and network design elements, and explians how SDN-enabled applications can dynamically control network behavior and make deploying new solutions more efficient and less time consuming.

You will learn how SDN is used in networking environments and how SDN separates the control and data plane using OpenFlow as the open standard
transport mechanism. SDN “use cases” are utilized to demonstrate how SDN can be used in real-world situations to solve network challenges, and demonstrate the implications that SDN will have on the current and future network designs.

You will learn how to implement the HPE VAN SDN Controller into an existing network by installing, configuring and licensing the HPE VAN SDN Controller. During the course you will be installing, configuring and testing the HPE Network Protector along with the HPE Visualizer SDN Application in the hands-on labs. Show less

The Building HP FlexFabric Data Centers course provides you with the skills and knowledge to design, implement and configure complex data center solutions based on the HP FlexNetwork Architecture.

Data center networks are at a breaking point. HP FlexFabric offers a new architectural approach that provides simplified, scalable and automated connectivity for virtualized compute, storage and cloud. Data center networking requirements have evolved rapidly, with emerging technologies increasingly focused on supporting more automation and simplified operations in virtualized data centers.

HP data center solutions and technologies such as Data Center Bridging (DCB) and HP Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) allow for the grouping of several switches that are managed as a single virtual switch with a single IP address through switch virtualization. Ethernet Virtual Interconnect (EVI) allows for the connection of geographically dispersed data centers for business resilience and high availability. For more information on the other technologies covered in this course, please go to the Objectives section. Show less
