Asterfusion® Asteria Fabric Controller

Asterfusion® AFC can seamlessly integrate with mainstream cloud management platforms (such as OpenStack and VMware). It can work with cloud management platforms to configure, control, operate and maintain Underlay and Overlay networks. For network function expansion, it can also allow customers to apply and run various applications for different network service requirements. At the same time, Asterfusion® AFC can provide automatic network service deployment and maintenance through visual graphical user interface.

Asterfusion® AFC can support various networking fabric architectures and provide flexible network deployments by concurrently supporting 3 different computing service types, including traditional bare metal servers (BMS), Virtual Machine (VM), and Container. Asterfusion® AFC supports network convergence between these 3 different service types and, hence providing customers stable and efficient production network environments.

Asterfusion® AFC can monitor network status in multiple dimensions and support multiple alarm mechanisms with user-defined configuration of various alarm thresholds; It can rapidly locate faulty devices by collecting comprehensive alarm information on equipment resources, applications and services and, hence reducing users’ OAM management risks and improving failure handling efficiency.

Asterfusion® AFC can based on users’ configured functional requirements to intelligently analyze the distribution of devices and link connections in various network topologies; At the same time, it can auto-generate device configuration information for different deployment scenarios and distribute configuration information to the devices and, thus reducing device configuration complexity and accelerating the cycle of user service going-online.
