Customer Edge (CE) routers from Broadcom, Netgear and ZTE were the first to be approved for the IPv6 CE Router Logo.
Please provide an overview of the CE Router Logo and explain its significance to service providers.IPv6 Ready CE Router Logo tests all the MUST requirements stated in the IETF RFC 7084. As with all IPv6 Ready Logo programs, a CE Router must pass all the required test cases in the program. The testing demonstrates the CE Router...
With the Internet of Things (IoT) gaining traction, as evidenced by the technologies displayed at CES 2016, IPv6 traffic will continue rising. IPv4 addresses have been depleted, so the explosion of IoT devices (Gartner estimates 6.4 billion things will be online worldwide this year) is dependent on the IPv6 address inventory.
Service providers are planning on going to native IPv6 vs. continuing to use a carrier grade network address translation (NAT). But just because they deploy IPv6 to a...
The Open Networking Foundation unveiled a new OpenFlow testing specification and added to its list of authorized testing facilities designed to help support the deployment of software-defined networking technology.
ONF said the OpenFlow version 1.3 testing specification includes specific features designed to ensure the development of “richly functional SDN products and services,” and pushes mandatory inclusion of protocol components within products.
“This further ensures that companies are able to build OpenFlow-based products, including hardware switches, that implement an...
The Open Networking Foundation (ONF) is opening up its OpenFlow Conformance Testing Program to non-members as of today, with the aim of extending the software-defined networking (SDN) ecosystem.
The Open Networking Foundation, an SDN advocacy organization, today announced it's opening its conformance testing program to non-members. The change should make it easier for carriers to find OpenFlow-compliant hardware and software, as well as making it easier for conformance testing labs to make money.
The newest release of the IPv6 Core Test Package for the IOL INTACT® software is nearly complete and will be available soon. This release includes complete PASS/FAIL results reporting, as well as improved test case execution and bug fixes.
The next release is planned for Fall 2014. This release will include the ability to create customizable scripts to control the operation of the Node Under Test. This will allow for fully automated...
PALO ALTO, USA: The Open Networking Foundation (ONF), a non-profit organization dedicated to accelerating the adoption of open Software-Defined Networking (SDN) announced that the ONF OpenFlow Conformance Testing Program has welcomed six testing labs and established the ONF Testing Leadership Council (TLC) since its inception one year ago.
