NVIDIA Cumulus Linux is an innovative open network operating system designed to automate, customize, and scale data center networks. Developed with the principles of easy implementation, management, customization, and scalability, it offers complete standardization, network protection, and a flexible open architecture.

Features

• Unnumbered Interfaces: Simplifies automation for BGP and OSPF with a single IP template for leaf and spine nodes.
• Redistribute Neighbor (RDNBR): Provides VM and host mobility with layer-3 discoverability on the fabric.
• Prescriptive Topology Manager (PTM): Programs the data center to verify connections and resolve issues quickly.
• Virtual Routing and Forwarding: Allows multiple network paths without multiple switches, offering traffic isolation and network segmentation.
• Ethernet Virtual Private Networks (EVPN): Supports legacy layer-2 applications over next-generation layer-3 networks.
• NVIDIA User Experience (NVUE): Offers a full CLI object model for advanced programmability, extensibility, and usability.
• Digital Twins: Uses NVIDIA Air to validate and simplify deployments and upgrades in a virtual network.

Benefits

• Enhanced Performance: Optimizes network operations and reduces operational expenses.
• Efficient Management: Simplifies network management with robust GUIs and automated processes.
• Comprehensive Security: Ensures secure network operations with native security features.
• Scalability: Supports large-scale data center deployments with flexible and open architecture.
• Automation: Facilitates continuous integration and delivery with end-to-end automation.
