Show 71 – OpenFlow, SDN, Controllers, VXLAN & Wishing for Fishes




Packet Pushers Podcast show

Summary: A wide ranging discussion this week following the Applied OpenFlow Symposium on Wednesday and the Network TechFieldDay on Thursday/Friday where we talked about the week and the much argued about purpose of VXLAN. Probably much more relevant to network engineers, I talk to Ivan Pepelnjak and discuss his conversion to believing in OpenFlow/SDN after he co-hosted the event with me. Big thanks to Marko Milivojevic for being willing to ask questions that the listeners would ask ( It takes a lot of courage to ask questions like he did) Much fun, and herd discussion occurred. The Difference Between Network and Server Engineers – Pictorial Link to Vimeo videos for the Vendor Presentations. We talked about what the vendors are doing in the OpenFlow/SDN space and here are the just the vendor presentations videos from the OpenFlow Symposium.
