IMPLEMENTING AN ENERGY PROPORTIONAL NETWORK ARCHITECTURE FROM DESIRED NETWORK CRITERIA

摘要

Systems, methods, and computer-readable executable instructions are provided for implementing an energy proportional network architecture. Implementing an energy proportional network architecture can include determining a number of desired network criteria and a desired number of access ports. A number of switches for the energy proportional network architecture can be calculated from the desired number of access ports and the number of desired network criteria. Implementing an energy proportional network architecture can also include using the number of calculated switches to form the energy proportional network.
