‘Tis the season for spreading holiday cheer! As mentioned a few weeks ago, we at Cumulus feel so thankful for all the great success in 2017. Our focus and stated goal has been to disrupt and transform the future of networking. We are pioneering a new generation of hyper-scale, automated and open networks designed to drive network agility in an era of digital transformation.
As 2017 comes to a close, we know many of you are excited to celebrate the holidays. We’d like to give you even more to cheer for this season by announcing a few exciting enhancements to Cumulus Linux with our 3.5 release — all designed to help you create an agile, open network that gives you the web-scale benefits of automation, interoperability, cost savings and choice.
In our new release of Cumulus Linux 3.5, we bring you the following open networking benefits:
Most legacy vendors offer either asymmetric routing or symmetric routing. For comparison, Cisco and Arista implement their VXLAN routing solution using symmetric mode. Juniper implements its VXLAN routing solution using asymmetric mode and some symmetric. With these different routing solutions, these vendor switches can’t operate Continue reading
Here's what to expect in enterprise networking in the coming year.
In the first few sessions of the Building Network Automation Solutions online course we used Ansible as the tool-of-choice because it’s the easiest automation tool to get started with. Now that we’ve established the baseline, it’s time to explore the alternatives.
In a live session on February 27th 2018, Mircea Ulinic will describe Salt, an open source, general-purpose event-driven automation framework that we briefly discussed in Episode 77 of Software Gone Wild podcast.

After the recent series of technical Best Current Operational Practices (BCOP) documents that we initiated and co-authored, it’s time for new one. This time on how to run an incoming email server on IPv6 and survive!
Back in 2010 we started the IPv6 series of BCOP documents, starting with the popular RIPE-501 that was superseded by the even more popular RIPE-554 that discusses how to specify IPv6 functionality and compliance when ordering ICT equipment. This document emerged from listening to the Internet community that is deploying IPv6, and figuring out the common problems in order to come up with recommendations on how to solve them.
The next most common issue that we heard about, was that helpdesks of network operators would melt down if they deployed IPv6 to their end customers as they don’t know anything about IPv6. So we built an online tool and wrote some helpdesk procedures on how to troubleshoot IPv6 issues when users call them – resulting in another useful document that was published as RIPE-631.
After addressing this, we then repeatedly heard questions about what size of IPv6 prefixes should be given to end-users and should it be assigned statically or dynamically. We therefore put Continue reading
