Take a Network Break! On today’s distillation of tech news, we examine Cisco’s purchase of Skyport Systems, discuss rumors that Dell is considering going public, and consider the implications of telcos powering up to take on Google and Facebook for ad dollars.

Juniper revamps and revitalizes OpenContrail, Cumulus raises $43 million (and Telstra’s investment may not bode well for Cisco), and Intel posts a record Q4.
