Vincent Bernat has a really in-depth article on IPv4 route lookup on Linux (and one on IPv6 route lookup as well). Ajay Chenampara (also with Network2Code) has a good post on lessons learned from interacting with NETCONF and YANG (key lesson: there’s two ways to use NETCONF, and one of them doesn’t involve YANG).

This was an important step in educating myself on Linux, KVM, libvirt, and Open vSwitch (OVS), all of which are critical core components in most installations of OpenStack. Sometimes, rebooting the guest would work; many times, rebooting the guest didn’t work. I can’t guarantee it will work, but it has worked for me so far.

It was good to read this post on Cumulus Linux first impressions by Jeremy Stretch. I’m a fan of Cumulus, but I’m admittedly a Linux guy (see here ) so you might say I’m a bit biased. Jeremy is a “hard-core” networking professional, and so hearing his feedback on Cumulus Linux was, in my opinion, useful.

A few months ago, I stumbled across a service called ODrive (“Oh” Drive) that allows you to combine multiple cloud storage services together. Since that time, I’ve been experimenting with ODrive, testing it to see how well it works, if at all, with my Fedora Linux environment. More on that point in a second.).

I can’t help but wonder if this is the right level at which to put the abstraction layer. For those customers who won’t use a cloud management platform, I would then ask: will they benefit from a CPAL? Don’t think this “software-defined networking” thing is going to take off?

Networking is a complicated topic, so to simplify it, I’ll borrow an analogy from Tom Haslett , the instructor of Linux Academy’s AWS Essentials course. But you don’t need to understand how it works to understand what it does. S3 is Amazon’s Simple Storage Service, and true to its name, it is pretty simple once you understand it.

In my mind, this isn’t an indictment of OpenFlow, but rather an indictment of the way that OpenFlow is being used.
