Features and Highlights

Switch Highlights

Fully-programmable Architecture

Built on chipsets with a fully-programmable architecture, CloudEngine S12700E adapts to changing forwarding processes driven by protocol evolution and technology advances. It enables fast and flexible provisioning of new services by upgrading software, without hardware replacement, protecting customer investments. Traditional ASIC chips use a fixed forwarding architecture, requiring new hardware development for new services, which can take 1 to 3 years.

Wired and Wireless Convergence

By integrating WLAN AC capabilities, CloudEngine S12700E eliminates the need for additional WLAN AC hardware. Each unit can manage up to 10,240 APs with up to 4 Tbps WLAN AC forwarding capacity, avoiding performance bottlenecks on independent WLAN AC devices. This positions organizations to handle challenges in the high-speed wireless era.

The CloudEngine S12700E supports unified user management, authenticating both wired and wireless users for a consistent experience. It supports various authentication methods (PPPoE, 802.1X, MAC address, Portal) and user management based on groups, domains, and time ranges, enabling a shift from data switching-centered management to service experience-centered management.

Note: The CloudEngine S12700E series switches manage 16 APs by default. Licenses can be purchased for additional AP management.

Service Experience Assurance

CloudEngine S12700E features a 4 GB buffer to manage burst data traffic from concurrent users, alleviating packet loss and connection interruptions. Its industry-leading HQoS provides hierarchical scheduling on network-wide data traffic at core nodes, ensuring differentiated services and quality for key users and applications.

Refined Network Management

Packet Conservation Algorithm for Internet (iPCA) replaces simulated traffic for fault location. iPCA monitors network quality for any service flow at any node, anytime, without extra costs, quickly detecting intermittent service interruptions and identifying faulty ports. This technology enables "fine granular management."

Super Virtual Fabric 2.0 (SVF 2.0) technology virtualizes fixed-configuration switches into modular line cards and APs into switch ports. This allows a physical network with core/aggregation switches, access switches, and APs to be virtualized into a single "super switch," simplifying network management. The S12700E series manages access switches similarly to WLAN ACs, enabling zero-configuration connectivity for access switches and APs.

System Openness Capability

CloudEngine S12700E supports NETCONF/YANG for automated configuration. It also features the Open Programmability System (OPS), an open programmable system based on Python, allowing IT administrators to program O&M functions via Python scripts for rapid innovation and intelligent O&M.

Secure and Trustworthy System

Digital signatures identify software sources and developers, ensuring code integrity. CloudEngine S12700E uses two levels of signature mechanisms: inner and outer. It supports secure boot based on a hardware trust root, checking software code level by level to prevent intrusion. Chipsets include a NIST SP 800-90A and NIST SP 800-90B certified Random Number Generator (RNG) for secure and trustworthy encryption.

Network-Level Reliability

CloudEngine S12700E utilizes link detection technologies like hardware Eth-OAM and BFD, and standard link switching technologies like G.8032 and Smart Ethernet Protection (SEP). These achieve end-to-end 50 ms hardware-level switchover, building a highly responsive and reliable campus network.

It supports High-speed Self Recovery (HSR) technology for end-to-end IP MPLS transmission network protection switchover within 50 ms, enhancing network reliability.

Easy Operation

CloudEngine S12700E supports EasyDeploy for plug-and-play deployment and central management of network devices. Key EasyDeploy functions include:

  • Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) for automatic loading of boot files, configuration files, and patches.
  • Batch upgrading of network devices and delivering configurations.
  • Quick replacement of old devices with new plug-and-play units.

Intelligent Diagnosis

CloudEngine S12700E supports the Open Intelligent Diagnosis System (OIDS). OIDS integrates device health monitoring and fault diagnosis functions into the switch software, enabling intelligent diagnosis on a single switch. After deployment, OIDS periodically collects running information, detects faults, and helps locate them, increasing fault locating efficiency and improving device maintainability.

Solution Benefits

Simplified Management

  • Deployment automation: Supports VXLAN and BGP-EVPN, building a Unified Virtual Fabric (UVF) to automate deployment of up to 512 Virtual Networks (VNs). This allows multiple service or tenant networks to be deployed and isolated on the same physical network.
  • Policy automation: Automates wired and wireless user policy deployment across the network and implements refined management and control based on SDN for free mobility.

Intelligent O&M

CloudEngine S12700E provides telemetry technology to collect real-time device data and send it to CampusInsight (a Huawei iMaster NCE component). CampusInsight analyzes network data using intelligent fault identification algorithms, displays real-time network status, demarcates and locates faults, and identifies user experience-impacting problems.

It supports intelligent O&M features for audio and video services, including enhanced Media Delivery Index (eMDI). The eMDI function allows the switch to act as a monitored node, reporting audio and video service indicators to CampusInsight for quick fault demarcation.

Big Data Security Collaboration

CloudEngine S12700E uses NetStream to collect campus network data and report it to Huawei HiSec Insight for detecting network security threats, displaying security posture, and enabling automated or manual responses. HiSec Insight delivers security policies to iMaster NCE-Campus (or Agile Controller), which then pushes them to switches, ensuring campus network security.

Licensing

CloudEngine S12700E supports traditional feature-based licensing and the Huawei IDN One Software (N1 mode) licensing. The N1 mode is ideal for campus network deployments in enterprise private cloud, simplifying purchasing and upgrading software services.

CloudEngine S12700E series switches can be deployed at the core or aggregation layer of enterprise data center networks. They provide large throughput using high-density line cards (e.g., 24*100GE, 6*100GE, 40*25GE, 48*10GE/GE). Single-link 100G hardware clustering helps build high-performance, reliable, low-latency data center networks.

In an Education Campus Network

Deployed at the core layer of college campus networks, CloudEngine S12700E series switches support a large number of concurrent access users. Unified user management reduces the need for additional hardware components. H-QoS implements fine-grained user and service management. Wired and wireless convergence provides a consistent user experience.

In a Bearer Network for Video Conferencing, Desktop Cloud, and Video Surveillance Applications

CloudEngine S12700E series switches offer a large buffer to prevent packet loss during traffic bursts, ensuring high-quality video streams. They support millions of hardware entries, facilitating evolution to IPv6 and the Internet of Things. End-to-end hardware reliability technologies and iPCA ensure a highly reliable, high-quality, scalable solution for video conferencing and surveillance.
