- In this module, we want to take a look
at the pieces and parts
that make network automation possible.
This is truly the future of networking
where we're not going to have to go to device
to device to device
and go into the command line interfacing,
configure those devices individually.
Instead, we can express our intent
for what we want to happen on the network.
We express that intent through programming,.
And in this module,
we're going to begin with an overview
of software-defined networking.
Then, we're going to learn how to program in Python.
And after that, we'll take a look
at several different network program ability
and automation tools.
Let's get started though
with a look at SDN, software-defined networking.
