## Target audience
You're a Linux server and network administrator for some years, have been building an office and/or colocation network with IPv4, IPv6, firewalls with IPTables, some stateful filtering (and NAT for IPv4). You've set up VPN tunnels between different locations to be able to reach the internal IPv4 network using RFC1918 addresses on the other side.

You know how to use the `iproute2` programs (`ip a`, `ip r`, etc) to set up your networking, and haven't typed the `ifconfig` or `route` commands in your terminal since 1999. You know how to debug problems using `tcpdump`, `traceroute` etc...

Have fun!
## Getting up to speed setting up test environments
All test setups used in the tutorials are built using Linux, LXC and OpenvSwitch for setting up network topologies, and using BIRD as routing daemon.
