The Typical Network Architecture
Wired Switch
Wi-Fi Access Point
End user experience depends not
only on how good the Wi-Fi is but
how good you have control over
wired network
Applications
Servers
A Typical Network
A Typical Network Requires Effort
Manual CLI/Scripts
Box-by-box
Human middleware
A Typical Network Element
Every element has its own intelligence
& configuration
Every vendor defines unique ways to
configure the box

SDN – A Brief History
2006 2008 2010 2012 2014
Connectivity at the edge of an enterprise network is more than just a wired or wireless LAN
infrastructure. Enterprises must chose infrastructure vendors that can integrate wired and
wireless networking products Source: Gartner Magic Quadrant for the Wired and Wireless LAN Access Infrastructure Published: 13 June 2012
