Quantum Multi-Switch Plugin Framework
Sumit Naiksatam <mailto:snaiksat@cisco.com>
Abstract
An L2 network may have multiple switches (physical and virtual), and these switches could be a combination of different types/technologies. Moreover, the L2 network consisting of these switches and the end hosts may be connected in an arbitrary topology.
It is desirable to have a plugin framework which can handle these generic requirements, and reference implementation of this plugin be provided.
Objective An L2 network may have multiple switches (physical and virtual), and these switches could be a combination of different types/technologies. Moreover, the L2 network consisting of these switches and the end hosts may be connected in an arbitrary topology.
