IP Infusion is a network operating system company which designs carrier-grade independent network operating systems (NOS) on white box network switches and virtualized control plane delivering SDN enabled disaggregated networks, traditional L2/L3 solutions and virtualized network functions (VNF) including virtual routing[1] for enterprise, data center and service providers. IP Infusion’s co-founder Kunihiro Ishiguro developed and contributed Zebra routing software package to opensource community that provides routing services with routing protocols support such as RIP, OSPF and BGP[2]. Zebra routing package was distributed under GNU license. It is forked to Quagga[3] and later to FRR [4] in 2017.
Headquartered in Santa Clara, California, USA, IP Infusion’s white box and network virtualization software is based on the open source Zebra routing software which was developed by IP Infusion in the late 1990s.
