Cisco NX-OS vs. openSUSE Tumbleweed

This easy solution can be a great help for the big companies on easy multiple data processing and effective networking solutions for the various departments and also generating the real-time data reports with Cisco NX-OS is excellent. For the new users, it takes no time to become a pro on full manipulation of the features and offer the best and quality management services.

openSUSE Tumbleweed is best suited to developers, system administrators, and other power users. Beginning users looking for stability and less-frequent package updates will likely be served by alternatives such as openSUSE Leap.

• Cisco NX-OS is very simple to use and user friendly CLI
• NX-OS has a modular config so easy to configure.
• NX-OS comes up with copp policy where we can define most of our system level ontrols instead of defining separate ACLs

• uses hardware too wisely.
• easy to setup machines.
• easy to ssh the machines hosted.

• Being used to Catalyst IOS the change in some commands gets annoying
• It also came with a new license model compared to IOS devices

• Sometimes after system update old software configuration does not work

NX-OS has many similarities with the traditional IOS which is quite beneficial when it comes to configuration and learning. As a native Linux system, there are a lot of tools and features that can be enabled for any use case.

Our switches running NX-OS have provided solid consistent throughput. We haven't had any issues with it not being able to handle what we threw at it. The latency is extremely low. It also has multiple management options that we hope to pursue in the future.

Cisco support never fails me. In terms of timely response, no one is on par with them. They really value the impact of having technical issues and potential business stoppage. Also, their support staff are well equipped with knowledge and skills and easily resolve the most common incidents. Most of the time, we can resolve an issue by just calling them once.

When compared to these data center switches, I think Cisco Nx-OS based data center switches fare very well in terms of performance and reliability. When looking and talking about security, Cisco and Juniper Junos are comparable but Huawei switches lag in terms of security due to various reasons like who owns and controls them.

openSUSE Tumbleweed is a fast-moving and quick-updating Linux distribution. It aims to deliver the latest versions of software packages while being automatically tested before each release. openSUSE Leap has a slower release face and is more suited for users looking to use a certain vetted set of packages which only receive bug fixes.

Up to now, we haven't had a major ground-shaking attack on our networks but we take no chances by using NX-OS alongside a SIEM. All endpoints and workloads are secure so I would say we have plenty of trust in their security model.
