Quote: "Cisco also unveiled proof-of-concept controller software and
proof-of-concept OpenFlow v1.0 agent for its Catalyst 3750-X and 3560-X
switches for SDN research"

But who uses 3750 and 3560's as a data center switch? They should have
started with something from the Nexus line. I guess it's at least a start.
