Open Networking is a core element of Dell Technologies' networking strategy and mission. Open Networking separates the hardware from the operating system, giving you the choice of picking the operating system that best fits your unique network infrastructure needs. Open Networking uses standards-based, open-source building blocks.
In the Dell Networking portfolio, any switch model with an "-ON" suffix, such as the Dell Networking Z9264F-ON and the Dell Networking S5232F-ON switches, has Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) enabled.
