The course provided a solid foundation in the principles and technologies of SD-WAN and NFV, which was my primary goal. I appreciated the detailed explanations of the course concepts, although some sections were a bit dry and could benefit from more interactive content. The instructors were knowledgeable and available to answer questions, which was helpful. One aspect that I found particularly useful was the discussion of security considerations in SD-WAN and NFV deployments, which is an area I'm interested in exploring further. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, making it simple to review and reference later. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others looking for a comprehensive introduction to SD-WAN and NFV.
