4 CHALLENGES WITH TODAY S NETWORKS Enabling Network Connectivity is not seen as a Service delivery Today s Enterprise networks are typically flat ; delivering network segmentation and virtualization is not straight forward Security = firewalling, but does not have to be. Often used to enforce segmentation Provisioning network connectivity takes too long Loop free L2 topologies often require unreliable Spanning Tree Protocol Enabling a stretched solution for virtual machine migrations is a big challenge Enabling seamless Wireless Roaming is a big challenge IoT and IPv6? Making a non fabric network IPv6 ready is a large project. Security surveillance is typically handled by separate infrastructure why? 2016 Avaya Inc. All right reserved 4

5 SDN Fx CAN CO-EXIST WITH LEGACY NETWORKS A Fabric enabled Enterprise Network is an Enterprise Service Provider Network The following slides depict several network scenarios and show why a fabric makes sense and how it can be deployed. Starting with a single switch deployment the benefits are shown up to a large multi-site enterprise deployment All Avaya SDN Fx Technologies (Fabric Connect, Fabric Extend, Fabric Attach) are part of the solution set depicted Avaya Inc.

6 INTERCONNECTIVITY OPTIONS PROVIDE FOR EVOLUTION Fabric Networks can be connected to legacy networks seamlessly Fabric Networks can be operated as overlays on top of legacy networks Whole infrastructure rips are NOT a requirement A network can evolve to end to end Fabric over time 2016 Avaya Inc.
