 Implementation of the learning switch capability that is used by Ethernet switches by using a software-based OpenFlow switch. The goal is to develop a five-port switch in this course module. The switch will learn the port mapping by examining each packet. When the destination address is already known, the packet is sent to the particular address, else packets are flooded on all the ports of the switch. Students will be using LabWiki on top of the GENI testbed to carry out this assignment.[[br]]

+Implementation of IP forwarding by setting up static routing in a 3-node topology. The goal is to explore the ping and route applications. Static routing is set up by using route command on the middle node. An OMF script is used to execute ping between first node and last node via the middle node, to verify the correctness of IP forwarding. Students will be using LabWiki on top of the GENI testbed to carry out this assignment.[[br]]
