Verification Continuum
Description
The configurability of multi-terabit Software Defined Networking devices ushers in a new level
of challenge in the verification process. The number of combinations of configuration settings
exceeds the practical limits of traditional verification methods. This paper describes how formal verification methodology was used to address this challenge on the Cavium XPliant® Ethernet Switch designs.
