Abstract :
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an emerging technology which radically improves cloud computing and other types of data networking. We discuss a new SDN undergraduate education program, developed in collaboration with industry partnerships. Student labs using resources such as GENI, NetFPGA, and the New York State Cloud Computing Center will be presented. We also outline SDN student projects including firewalls, load balancers, and redundant failover systems.
