So we're going to go ahead and do a rudimentary software defined networking and we're going to do that manually in our Hyper V Manager. Later on, we're going to be going into some scripts and we're going to be going into some automation as well. Let's go ahead and choose our SDN Server 2, which does not yet have a virtual switch assigned to it and we're going to start by going over to the virtual switch manager and we're going to create another external switch.
