Abstract

Open Network Switches provide network architects with new possibilities with respect to their choices in network hardware and network operating system software.

D-Link commissioned Tolly to evaluate the performance and functionality of its DXS-5000-54S Open Switch powered by the Pluribus Netvisor ONE operating system. Testing encompassed throughput performance and latency, resilience in a multi-switch, leaf-spine configuration as well as extensive feature/function testing.

Tolly engineers verified wire-speed L2 throughput and latency across two ports of a 10GbE switch, verified rapid reconvergence times in multi-switch failover scenarios and validated nearly 50 features in areas including L2/L3, automation, VXLAN, QoS, DHCP, mirroring, analytics and management.
