Configuring and Administering the Pluribus Fabric

Pluribus Networks offers a unique and highly differentiated approach to software-defined networking (SDN), called Adaptive Cloud Fabric. The distributed architecture enables organizations to build scalable private and public clouds with improved ease of management, reliability, security and performance. Pluribus Networks innovative Netvisor® ONE software virtualizes open networking hardware and builds a holistic, standard-based distributed network, referred to as a fabric, which provides improved management, automation, telemetry and resiliency.

This chapter provides information for understanding and using the Pluribus Networks Netvisor ONE command line interface (CLI) on a Netvisor ONE switch to configure and administer the Pluribus Fabric.
