Overview of this book

Python Network Programming Cookbook - Second Edition highlights the major aspects of network programming in Python, starting from writing simple networking clients to developing and deploying complex Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) systems. It creates the building blocks for many practical web and networking applications that rely on various networking protocols. It presents the power and beauty of Python to solve numerous real-world tasks in the area of network programming, network and system administration, network monitoring, and web-application development. In this edition, you will also be introduced to network modelling to build your own cloud network. You will learn about the concepts and fundamentals of SDN and then extend your network with Mininet. Next, you’ll find recipes on Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) and open and proprietary SDN approaches and frameworks. You will also learn to configure the Linux Foundation networking ecosystem and deploy and automate your networks with Python in the cloud and the Internet scale. By the end of this book, you will be able to analyze your network security vulnerabilities using advanced network packet capture and analysis techniques.

Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of text styles that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles and an explanation of their meaning. Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "If you need to know the IP address of a remote machine you can use the built-in library function gethostbyname()" A block of code is set as follows:

def test_socket_timeout():
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
print "Default socket timeout: %s" %s.gettimeout()
s.settimeout(100)
print "Current socket timeout: %s" %s.gettimeout()

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ python 2_5_echo_server_with_diesel.py --port=8800
[2013/04/08 11:48:32] {diesel} WARNING:Starting diesel <hand-rolled select.epoll>
