[AusNOG] Open Networking

[Thomas Cuthbert]

I think what SnapRoute is promising is great! I think bus management planes
are the way to go. Not having to run an agent/ssh/python on a box is
certainly appealing!

Another cool project which takes it down a layer is P4 http://p4.org/
programmable silicon.
