Open Networking Enterprise Suite (ONES)

Introduction and Overview

Open Networking Enterprise Suite (ONES) is a Network Orchestration, Visibility, and Assurance solution for multi-vendor and multi-NOS operated Network Infrastructure. ONES provides a one-stop solution from delivering deep visibility into your datacenter networks to extending 24x7 support functions for SONiC. It also hosts a powerful analytics engine that assists users to identify network issues and troubleshoot their networks, in case of common network anomalies and disruptions.

ONES uses Auto-discovery for SONiC devices and a YAML or CSV-based template for adding non-SONiC devices during the onboarding process and continuously collects streaming telemetry data from them to provide insights on:

• Data Center Inventory

• Network State

• Platform and System Health

• Control and Data Plane resource Utilisation

• Traffic Utilisation

• Software Compliance

• AI Fabric

• Underlay and Overlay protocols view

• GPU Health monitoring

• Dial-out Agent support

ONES monitors various control and data plane metrics to provide these insights.

Rule Engine

ONESv3.1.1 application has the capability to trigger notifications via Slack app notifications when certain user-defined threshold values are breached.

In data centre operations, a rule engine with alerts for various metrics is essential for proactive monitoring and management of critical components and services. Rule Engine pushes the configured rule notification in case any device breaches the threshold value configured under the rule to SLACK Channel, Zendesk Support and ServiceNow Ticketing Service integration

ONES offer different types of rule engine metrics for specific Entity/features in a data centre environment

ONES Orchestration

ONES orchestration provide network admins to automate the fabric configuration using configuration templates for provisioning physical interfaces, layer 3 configuration for building IP-CLOS fabric using

• BGP as a routing protocol including BGP-unnumbered

• Symmetric/Asymmetric IRB

• BGP Peering with PO

• L2/L3 MC-LAG

• EVPN MultiHoming

• Layer2 Leaf-Spine (L2/L3 Mode)

• Rack-to-Rack Deployment

• BGP Peering over MC-LAG PeerLink

• BGP Peering using separate Link between MC-LAG Peers

• SFLOW

• DHCP Relay

• RoCE Config

• AI Fabric config

• SAG / SVI

• NTP, SNMP, SYSLOG

• Incremental Config update for L2VNI/L3VNI

• Enhanced backup and restore options via UI

• Enhanced API support - Config Replace

ONES orchestration not only configures the fabric but also make sure the Fabric is operational by doing verifying the configuration at every stage.

ONES provides north bound API access for configurations originating from external orchestration tools.
