What network operators are telling us

4

We want to manage our network(s) in one way

Common tools for fixed, WL, optical

Totally flexible infrastructure

We want to create our own services, quickly

Open interfaces to an abstracted network

For us and for our customers

We can’t afford vendor lock-in

Open interfaces to networking equipment

Optimized HW, remote SW we control

State of Carrier SDN- End-Users

10

NFV has gained significant momentum

• But: Few operators are deploying

Broad range of use cases being considered

• But: Cloud and Optical Transport are likely to be first

Carriers are pursuing SDN to enable NFV

• But: SDN and NFV represent a long journey
