Unified Visualization, Management & O&M with OpenWiFi Network Controller

the-software-architecture-of-the-sonic-based-packet-broker
Our campus switches, powered by enterprise SONiC, integrate with a TIP OpenWiFi – based controller. This integration enables unified monitoring, automated deployment, and streamlined operations.
Key features include intelligent topology planning, ZTP, real – time network visualization, and script – based automation. With centralized remote management and flexible deployment options (cloud or on – premise), this solution offers full control over the entire campus network, from APs to switches. It helps IT teams optimize performance, speed up troubleshooting, and scale easily. For more←

Network Packet Broker Functionality (Optional)

The SONiC-based campus switches CX-M series take full advantage of SONiC’s open and containerized architecture, and fully leverage its capabilities by installing the new APP-PB container and deploying packet broker docker functionality on SONiC.

This integration unlocks a range of advanced features, including traffic mirroring, raw data tagging, filtering, aggregation, preprocessing, load balancing, and output replication. For more←
