In this Cisco SD-WAN Day 1 video, I explain SDN – Software Defined Networking from the basics and show how SDN is used across different areas of modern networking. Before learning Cisco SD-WAN architecture, it is important to understand what SDN is, why SDN was introduced, how software controls modern networks, and what different types of SDN solutions are available in the industry. In this video, we also discuss the major networking companies that provide SDN-based solutions for Campus/LAN, WAN, Data Center, Cloud and Service Provider networks. Topics covered in this video: What is SDN? SDN full form – Software Defined Networking What does “Software Defined” actually mean? Why traditional networking needed SDN Traditional networking vs SDN Control Plane and Data Plane concept Centralized network management SDN Controller concept Network automation and programmability Types of SDN solutions SDN for LAN / Campus Networks SD-WAN Data Center SDN Service Provider SDN Cloud networking and automation SDN-based network management Major companies providing SDN solutions Cisco SDN solutions Cisco SD-Access Cisco SD-WAN Cisco ACI for Data Center SDN solutions from other major networking vendors Where different SDN technologies are used How SDN relates to Cisco SD-WAN SDN learning roadmap We also discuss examples of SDN technologies and solutions from major networking vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, Arista, Nokia, Ciena, VMware/Broadcom and Palo Alto Networks, and understand which networking domains these solutions target. This video is especially useful if you are preparing to learn Cisco SD-WAN, because SD-WAN itself is based on software-defined networking principles such as centralized control, automation, policy-based networking, application awareness and programmable infrastructure.
