What you need for this book
While SDN is being driven by solutions both from vibrant open source community and from networking vendors we focused on leveraging the open source software with a hands-on approach to gaining technology and implementation insights. You will need computers or servers running on a Intel x86 processor with VT extensions, at least 4 GB RAM and 100 GB HDD. Each computer will require at least three network interfaces.
Considering the rapid updates to technology and implementation we strongly recommend following the relevant links supplied for topics for further reading.
