Open Network Linux Expansion – Big Switch Networks, Inc.

15th December 2016 By Greg Ferro Filed Under: Response

BigSwitch blogging about their additions to OpenNetLinux network operating system

  •  New CPU, ASIC Support: ARM, Mellanox, Cavium Added support for ARM based CPUs.  ARM CPUs help move ONL into more cost sensitive markets like management switches or campus deployments.

  • Support for the Mellanox Spectrum ASICs, first on the SN2700 platform with support for the SN2100, SN2410, and other switches in the near future.

Momentum on the operating system should lead to progress in the applications that we run on network today. Today its BGP, SNMP – tomorrow it can be something else, constraints are being removed.
