One unified operating system — across data center, enterprise, and industrial — delivering programmability, automation, and line-rate security.
Every switch — from the industrial edge to the data center core — runs WatchDog NOS for consistent CLI, APIs, and automation workflows.
Auto-discovery, ZTP, and intent-based deployment — bring switches online with a single scan-and-claim, no console cable required.
Real-time visibility with gNMI, gRPC, and OpenConfig model-driven telemetry streaming to your analytics stack of choice.
P4-programmable ASICs, SONiC-ready platforms, and open APIs for custom INT, load balancing, and traffic engineering.
Centralized fleet management via WD-CloudManager — firmware, configuration, compliance, and analytics, all from a single pane.
Hardware-enforced 256-bit MACsec on every port for wire-speed encryption without latency or throughput penalty.
A scalable spine-leaf-access topology that supports any workload - from AI compute clusters to multi-tenant cloud platforms.
