OpenFlow is fast becoming a requirement for certain segments of campus networking products, particularly in education markets. DNOS-OF 1.1 is a campus networking firmware release that runs on existing Dell Networking N-Series hardware. This provides OpenFlow 1.3.4 support as a pure OpenFlow switch, as well as interoperability with OpenFlow cluster controllers.
This document gives network designers an understanding of the basic principles of OpenFlow and software defined networks (SDN). Simplification of design allows for operational efficiencies and enables network architects to deploy an easily managed campus network that addresses the needs of diverse communities.
