What is NEBS? Understanding data center requirements.

摘要

Network Equipment-Building System, or NEBS, is a set of technical requirements and objectives that originally were developed by AT&T's Bell Labs under the title of Technical Publications with the purpose of making network switches robust and reliable. After the 1984 divestiture of AT&T, NEBS ownership passed on to Bellcore (currently Telcordia), the research arm of Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOC), for maintenance and upgrades. Since then Telcordia has renamed the publications Generic Requirements (GR) and published many new ones.
