Operational Technology Software-Defined Networking
Please join the Central Tennessee IEEE in Nashville on May 22nd, for a lunch presentation on Software-Defined Networking.
Traditional Ethernet switches generally behave similarly regardless of the environment (one size fits all). With Operational Technology Software-Defined Networking (OT SDN), LAN switching can be optimized for the specific requirements of the environment. OT SDN allows you to purpose-engineer your networks like you purpose-engineer your critical control system. An OT SDN solution prioritizes network security, situational awareness, reliability, and high-speed performance for critical applications.
This session will cover the following topics:
- Comparing traditional switches to software-defined networking (SDN) switches
- Traffic engineering of OT networks
- SDN benefits and performance
- SDN interoperability with traditional networks
- SDN design and deployment options
