N2OS Overview
Goal
Customize Network Equipment for All (Low to High Grade)
N2OS independent of Switching Silicon Vendors
Reduce the costs for a new design what has grown licensing and implementation costs
Features
Play On Open Source Domain (http://openn2os.etri.re.kr/index_eng.jsp)
“It’s time for network equipment to embrace open source”
