DANOS

The Disaggregated Network Operating System (DANOS) is a Telco-grade Network Operating System (NOS) seeded to The Linux Foundation by AT&T.

DANOS was defined by AT&T’s “dNOS” software framework white paper to be a more open, cost-effective and flexible alternative to traditional networking equipment. DANOS is based on a subset of the Vyatta NOS used internally in AT&T’s network. It is a ready-to-use Debian-based distribution that makes use of the Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) libraries to provide highly efficient software packet-processing on x86 hardware in addition to Broadcom’s Open Network Switch Layer (OpenNSL) libraries to support a hardware programming plugin architecture for merchant silicon based forwarding.
