OcNOS 6.6 pour data centers : AI Fabric PFC/ETS, améliorations des politiques EVPN et passage au 400G

OcNOS 6.6 for Data Centers is now generally available. This release initiates the AI fabric journey: PFC and ETS arrive in OcNOS 6.6, providing the lossless RoCEv2 transport foundations that GPU clusters require. Full Tomahawk 5-based 800G AI fabric support completes in OcNOS 6.6.1 and 7.0. For existing EVPN-VXLAN deployments, OcNOS 6.6 delivers meaningful policy and visibility improvements.

AI Fabric: PFC and ETS for RoCEv2

OcNOS 6.6 DC introduces PFC (Priority-Based Flow Control) and ETS (Enhanced Transmission Selection) on supported Broadcom platforms. These are the two essential building blocks for lossless Ethernet required by RoCEv2 GPU-to-GPU communication in AI training fabrics.

EVPN Policy Enhancements

OcNOS 6.6 DC expands EVPN policy capabilities with enhanced route-map enforcement for EVPN route advertisement. Operators gain fine-grained control over which routes are imported, exported, and shared across VNIs, improving security boundaries and control-plane efficiency in large multi-tenant VXLAN fabrics.
