Network Operating Systems (NOS) based on Linux-native networking API and hardware offload for network switching ASICs continue to gain traction. DENT is a new switchdev based NOS project, bringing together switch ASIC vendors, distributors, system integrators, and users to address a need for a streamlined, slimmed-down NOS at the campus edge.
This 90-minute workshop will introduce participants to DENT and it's community release.
Agenda:
- Evolution of Open Networking and Linux Networking
- Introducing Project DENT & DentOS
- SwitchDev for Open Networking
- DENT Architecture & Roadmap
- DENT “Live” demonstration
- DENT How to Get Involved
- Open Discussion
