Re: Open Souce Network Operating Systems

Colton, Maybe it is obvious to some, but I just want to point out that the reason Cumulus Linux publishes list of supported hardware is kind of two fold: 1st is Linux inherently doesn't program the hardware. So if you install Ubuntu on some Quanta switch, you still need a way to program the

Re: Open Souce Network Operating Systems

Feedback about Cumulus has been positive : https://www.mail-archive.com/cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net/msg66192.html if i am not mistaken, they have added lots of networking enhancements to the OS, they have videos on youtube that will paint the picture. On Sat, Jan 20, 2018 at 11:26 AM, Colton

Re: Open Souce Network Operating Systems

I would second Peter's  advise.  Colton, for  you I would recommended you visit Cumulus' web site and follow their tutorials.  That should provide you with enough insights  for your next step.  On Saturday, January 20, 2018, 11:27:38 AM PST, Colton Conor wrote:

Peter, Thanks for the information. Do you have a recommendation of which distribution of Linux to use for this? Is there one that is more network centric than another? On Sat, Jan 20, 2018 at 1:11 PM, Peter Phaal wrote: > On Sat, Jan 20, 2018 at 9:32 AM, Colton Conor

Re: Open Souce Network Operating Systems

There's AT's dNOS effort[1], though I think that wasn't really targeting CPE so much as DC and carrier type WAN gear. A single platform for DC, aggregation, and other SP roles is already pretty ambitious. Adding CPE into the mix as well is another big stretch even beyond that. It's also

If one were to deploy whitebox switches, X86 servers, low cost ARM and MIBPS CPE devices, and basically anything that can run linux today, what network operating system would you recommend? The goal would be to have a universal network operating system that runs across a variety of devices. >From
