29:15 OpenFlow Implementations |
||
|
In the heyday of OpenFlow, most networking vendors claimed to have OpenFlow implementations. All ran away from OpenFlow in the meantime and while you might find remains of OpenFlow still floating around it tends to be implemented mostly on niche- or discontinued hardware. This section describes the OpenFlow implementations available in 2015. Watch it solely if you're interested in the history of networking industry follies. |
