Release Notes
Overview
IP Infusion’s Open Compute Network Operation System Data Center (OcNOS DC) is used to build both Layer-3 and Layer-2 Data Center fabric as it provides a rich set of control plane features, providing robust quality, ensuring lower costs and, at the same time, providing vendors with a best-of-breed selection for hardware platforms. This release provides enhancements in traffic monitoring and filtering support for EVPN-VXLAN.
A key concept that will enable next-generation Data Center networks is the separation of the networking software from the switching or routing hardware. One of the biggest advantages of disaggregation is CAPEX reduction, followed by OPEX savings and deployment flexibility.
OcNOS provides a unique value proposition in building modern Data Centers. It provides robust quality with over 600 Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and end users, with custom solutions for deployments spanning across access, core, transport and data center networking. It is a feature rich solution with extensive legacy and new protocol coverage.
OcNOS also drastically reduces operational costs as it can be used to address multiple solutions such as Data Center, Optical Transport, Cell Site Router, Provider Aggregation, and Passive Optical Networks.
