Abundant Convergence Feature
⚫ The S6730-S supports SVF and functions as a parent switch. With this virtualization technology, a physical network with the "Small-sized core/aggregation switches + Access switches + APs" structure can be virtualized into a "super switch", greatly simplifying network management.
⚫ The S6730-S provides excellent QoS capabilities and supports queue scheduling and congestion control algorithms.Additionally, it adopts innovative priority queuing and multi-level scheduling mechanisms to implement fine-grained scheduling of data flows, meeting service quality requirements of different user terminals and services.
Providing Fine Granular Network Management
⚫ The S6730-S uses the Packet Conservation Algorithm for Internet (iPCA) technology that changes the traditional method of using simulated traffic for fault location. iPCA technology can monitor network quality for any service flow anywhere, anytime,without extra costs. It can detect temporary service interruptions in a very short time and can identify faulty ports accurately. This cutting-edge fault detection technology turns "extensive management" to "fine granular management."
⚫ The S6730-S supports Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP) to accurately check any IP link and obtain the entire network's IP performance. This protocol eliminates the need of using a dedicated probe or a proprietary protocol.
Flexible Ethernet Networking
⚫ In addition to traditional Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), and Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), the S6730-S supports Hua wei-developed Smart Ethernet Protection (SEP) technology and the latest Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) standard. SEP is a ring protection protocol specific to the Ethernet link layer, and applies to various ring network topologies, such as open ring topology, closed ring topology, and cascading ring topology. This protocol is reliable, easy to maintain, and implements fast service switching within 50 ms. ERPS is defined in ITU-T G.8032. It implements millisecond-level protection switching based on traditional Ethernet MAC and bridging functions.
⚫ The S6730-S supports Smart Link and Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), which implement backup of uplinks.One S6730-S switch can connect to multiple aggregation switches through multiple links, significantly improving reliability of access devices.
Intelligent Stack (iStack)
⚫ The S6730-S supports the iStack function that combines multiple switches into a logical switch. Member switches in a stack implement redundancy backup to improve device reliability and use inter-device link aggregation to improve link reliability.iStack provides high network scalability. You can increase a stack's ports, bandwidth, and processing capability by simply adding member switches. iStack also simplifies device configuration and management. After a stack is set up, multiple physical switches can be virtualized into one logical device. You can log in to any member switch in the stack to manage all the member switches in it.
Cloud-based Management
⚫ The Hua weis cloud management platform allows users to configure, monitor, and inspect switches on the cloud, reducing on-site deployment and O&M manpower costs and decreasing network OPEX. Hua weis switches support both cloud management and on-premise management modes. These two management modes can be flexibly switched as required to achieve smooth evolution while maximizing return on investment (ROI).
VXLAN
⚫ VXLAN is used to construct a Unified Virtual Fabric (UVF). As such, multiple service networks or tenant networks can be deployed on the same physical network, and service and tenant networks are isolated from each other. This capability truly achieves 'one network for multiple purposes'. The resulting benefits include enabling data transmission of different services or customers, reducing the network construction costs, and improving network resource utilization. The S6730-S series switches are VXLAN-capable and allow centralized and distributed VXLAN gateway deployment modes. These switches also support the BGP EVPN protocol for dynamically establishing VXLAN tunnels and can be configured using NETCONF/YANG.
High-Performance VRP Software System
⚫ Hua weiS series switches build on a unified Versatile Routing Platform (VRP) software system, meeting the growing network scale and the evolving Internet technologies and guaranteeing network services and network quality.
⚫ VRP is a network operating system developed by Hua weis with independent intellectual property rights. It can run on multiple hardware platforms and provide unified network, user, and management views. VRP provides flexible application solutions for users. In addition, VRP is a future-proof platform that maximally protects customer investments.
⚫ The VRP platform is focused on IP services and uses a component-based architecture to provide more than 300 features.Besides, VRP stands out for its application-based tailorable and scalable capabilities.
OPS
⚫ Open Programmability System (OPS) is an open programmable system based on the Python language. IT administrators can program the O&M functions of a switch through Python scripts to quickly innovate functions and implement intelligent O&M.
Big Data-Powered Collaborative Security
⚫ This series of switches supports encrypted communication analytics (ECA), a traffic identification and detection technology. ECA can precisely detect malicious traffic by efficiently identifying encrypted and non-encrypted traffic, extracting the characteristics of encrypted traffic, and sending these characteristics to HiSec Insight (a big data-powered security analysis system). Furthering to this, ECA-capable switches can work with the controller iMaster NCE-Campus to automatically isolate threats, thereby ensuring campus network security. ⚫ This series of switches also supports network deception technology. Specifically, switches functioning as sensors can detect threats (such as IP address scanning and port scanning on the network) and lure threat traffic to the honeypot for simulated interaction with attackers. In this way, it is easy to obtain attack behaviors, extract attack tools, and analyze suspicious traffic in depth to create defense policies. Switches then work with iMaster NCE-Campus to automatically isolate threats and block the spread of attack behaviors, ensuring campus network security.
Intelligent O&M
⚫ This series switches provides telemetry technology to collect device data in real time and send the data to Hua weis campus network analyzer(iMaster NCE-CampusInsight). The CampusInsight analyzes network data based on the intelligent fault identification algorithm, accurately displays the real-time network status, effectively demarcates and locates faults in a timely manner, and identifies network problems that affect user experience, accurately guaranteeing user experience.
⚫ This series switches supports a variety of intelligent O&M features for audio and video services, including the enhanced Media Delivery Index (eMDI). With this eDMI function, the switch can function as a monitored node to periodically conduct statistics and report audio and video service indicators to the CampusInsight platform. In this way, the CampusInsight platform can quickly demarcate audio and video service quality faults based on the results of multiple monitored nodes.
Intelligent Upgrade
⚫ Switches support the intelligent upgrade feature. Specifically, switches obtain the version upgrade path and download the newest version for upgrade from the Hua weis Online Upgrade Platform (HOUP). The entire upgrade process is highly automated and achieves one-click upgrade. In addition, preloading the version is supported, which greatly shortens the upgrade time and service interruption time.
⚫ The intelligent upgrade feature greatly simplifies device upgrade operations and makes it possible for the customer to upgrade the version independently. This greatly reduces the customer's maintenance costs. In addition, the upgrade policies on the HOUP platform standardize the upgrade operations, which greatly reduces the risk of upgrade failures.
