- Juniper’s Contrail Networking is an SDN solution that automates and orchestrates the creation of highly scalable virtual networks. The hypervisor-level vRouter forwarding plane provides line-rate overlay packet processing in a multitenant virtualized, containerized, or bare-metal environment completely decoupled from the underlying physical fabric switches. It provides L3VPN and E-VPN style overlays that can span cloud boundaries with federation.
