SDN TEST SERVICES FOR SDN, NFV AND CLOUD

Criterion Network Labs is a vendor neutral interoperability & independent test facility for validating networking products, technologies and solutions. The lab has an emerging network technology focus in SDN, NFV, Cloud and M2M domains in addition to traditional network technologies.

The programs from CNLabs addresses Network Equipment Manufacturer and Operator customer needs in the areas of interoperability, benchmarking, independent testing, certifications, solution testing, vendor evaluation and deployment validation.

CNLabs is accredited to National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories, (an ILAC signatory) and meets all requirements for technical competence of personnel, environment, test procedures and methods required of ISO 17025 accredited Electronics Test laboratories.

Our vendor neutral test facility can help network operators independently validate advertised product capabilities to ensure thatthey work as expected in the intended deployment environments.

In an evolving SDN/NFV/Cloud ecosystem, it is important to ensure end-to-end interoperability prior to deployment. Our interoperability programs for SDN, NFV and Cloud provide an opportunity for validation of interoperability scenarios in a multi-vendor environment. Different open source and major vendor switches, controllers, hypervisors, distributions are part of the test environment. Test coverage is determined by vendor neutral test plans and test methodology. As a leader of the ONF Test and Interoperability forum, we are also involved in driving the yearly plug fest events and related initiatives which help in creating a better interoperable eco-system.

Our comprehensive set of test programs for network equipment vendors and SDN/NFV application developers ensure that the products are ready to meet the needs of next generation networks and architectures.

CNLabs is one of the ONF authorized international test labsfor undertaking certification testing of products implementing Open Flow protocol. We offer a wide range of programs for interoperability, benchmarking and independent testing ofSDN, NFV and Cloud products.

All the lab services from CNLabs are available as part of our annual subscription program. This program provides

customer driven test coverage across all lab offerings with a flexibility to change mix of services quarterly as needs evolve.

The subscription program also provides a discounted price on certifications offered by the lab.

As an independent test facility, we can provide an objective assessment and evaluation of network products that meet the deployment needs of network operators.

Our solution testbeds are referenced around Open SDN architectures, protocols and stacks for SDN and NFV use cases and deployment scenarios.

Operators can use the reference architectures as starting point for proof of concepts and vendor evaluation.
