Our blog includes not only the latest solutions like SD-Access & SD-WAN but also many other technical topics

Many old school engineers haven’t even heard about SD-Access or SD-WAN. In reality those technologies are the biggest change in networking in the past 20 years. They solve many problems that have long been associated with the traditional routing and switching. At EDNX we are always aiming to be on top of any developments in the network space. In those series of articles we are trying to explain both general and low level concepts around SD-Access, SD-WAN, migration strategies etc. Building greenfield network is fairly straightforward with DNA Center. On the other hand migrating your existing WAN to SD-WAN or LAN to SD-Access requires a completely different skill-set. You need to be able to understand both legacy and new approach. The journey will be well worth it but can be technically demanding at first.  We hope to provoke more questions from engineers around the world that could help us improve the content here.

This blog will also include many other hot topics in the networking World so don’t assume it is only LAN, WAN and WLAN. If you are interested in data centre networking we will definitely expand on this subject here. We are also including security related articles that are integral part of any cutting edge network.
