"We are excited to work with Cisco in the Interoperability Lab," said Davy. "Cisco obviously has a large share of the networking market. As our lab facilitates OpenFlow interoperability testing with Cisco products, this will enable many more companies and organizations to start working with OpenFlow. "

Cisco joins the lab's five existing member companies: Big Switch Networks, Brocade, HP, IBM, and NEC.
