+**Dates:** 07-11 December 2020\\
+**Location:** Online\\
+**Synopsis**
+  * The emergence of SDN is having a disruptive influence on the world of data networking and is leading to a fundamental re-think of how networks are designed.
+  * This workshop will provide an understanding of the key technology elements of SDN via a combination of lectures and hands-on exercises.
+**Target Audience**
+  * Anyone currently operating an IP and/or MPLS network who is interesting in understanding the impact of SDN with a view to implementing elements of it in the near future.
+**Pre-requisites**
+  * This workshop is not an introduction.
+  * It is assumed that the workshop participants have working knowledge of IP routing, MPLS protocols and traffic-engineering, along with know how to use a router command line interface.
+  * The lab exercises use IOS-XR (XRv) CLI and Ubuntu VMs
+We recommend the following Academy courses be completed before the start of the tutorial:
+  * Routing Basics: [[https://academy.apnic.net/en/course/routing-basics/]]
+  * Introduction to Multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) - [[https://academy.apnic.net/en/webinar-courses/introduction-to-mpls-and-mpls-layer3-vpn/]]
+  * Virtual lab for MPLS LDP and MPLS Layer3 VPN (Cisco IOS) - [[https://academy.apnic.net/en/virtual-labs/?labId=83872]]
+**Workshop topics**
+  * History
+  * Motivation for control and data plane separation
+  * Architectural frameworks
+  * OpenFlow
+  * Topology discovery and management
+  * Segment routing
+  * OpenDayLight
+**Other requirements**
+  *Hardware: It is highly recommended that participants bring their own laptop computers with Wifi (b/g/n) and administrative access to system to practice the lessons learned during the workshops. It is also recommended that participants have a pre-installed desktop virtualization tool like virtual box or vmware on their machines.
+  * Software: SSH Client, Telnet Client, VirtualBox/VMware
+  * Confirm Secure SHell (SSH) is allowed from the office or home network to access the lab infrastructure? Test ssh connectivity, try to connect to route-views.oregon-ix.net. For example from the CLI type: ssh rviews@route-views.oregon-ix.net
