ONL and ONIE on Layerscape Processors and LS Series

About This Training

White box switches are network switches sold independently from the software that will run on them. Open network Linux (ONL) is used as the basis for the "network operating systems" that run on the switches. Open network install environment (ONIE) is used to create the software to install the networking operation system onto the switch. This presentation highlights NXP's involvement in ONL/ONIE on the P2041 and T2080 platforms as well as the roadmap for LS2. This session will expand on NXP's approach to ONL/ONIE and the white box market.
