Why OpenStack Neutron?

Give tenants control over networking

• Provide technology-agnostic tenant API tomanage virtual network topologies

Leverage advanced networktechnologies

• Traditional approach (‘Nova-network’) provides

only basic technologies

• VLANs are only option for multi-tenancy

• “network controller” node is centralized single-pointof failure for large networks.

What is OpenStack Neutron?

An API allowing cloud tenants to:• Define advanced network topologies

in the cloud

• Manage IP addressing

• Monitor network status

• Define security and quality-of-servicepolicies

• Configure advanced network services A framework for leveraging

advanced technologies• Based on a ‘plugin’ mechanism

Why run OpenStack Neutron on VMwarHA & Scale

What?• Scale-out architecture with

sub-second HAWhy?• Distribute workloads

without Networkingboundaries

Performance

What?• Distributed archite

and efficient encapWhy?• Get most out of yo

existing 10GE NW

Enterprise-class features

What?• Gateways, QoS, BUMoffload and many others

Why?• Eases cloud deployment &

integrates existingworkloads.

Operational Agility

What?• Single pane of glass

operational model.Why?

• Better sleep at nighknowing support hato do their job.
