Huawei S12700 Series Agile Switches

Click Here For Latest S12700 DataSheet, Features, Models, Price

Huawei S12700 series agile switches are core switches designed for next-generation campus networks. Using a fully programmable switching architecture, the S12700 series allows fast, flexible function customization and supports a smooth evolution to software-defined networking (SDN).

The S12700 series uses Huawei Ethernet Network Processor (ENP) and provides native wireless access controller (AC) to help build a wired and wireless converged network. Its native broadband remote access server (BRAS) capabilities deliver refined user and service management, and Huawei's Packet Conservation Algorithm for Internet (iPCA) supports hop-by-hop monitoring of any service flows, helping you manage services in a more refined way.

The S12700 series runs Huawei Versatile Routing Platform (VRP), which provides high-performance L2/L3 switching services as well as rich network services, such as MPLS VPN, hardware IPv6, desktop cloud, and video conferencing. In addition, the S12700 series offers a variety of reliability technologies including in-service software upgrade, non-stop forwarding, CSS2 switch fabric hardware clustering that allows 1+N backup of MPUs, hardware Eth-OAM/BFD, and ring network protection. These technologies help you improve productivity and maximize network operation time, and therefore reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO).

S12700 switches

Product Characteristics

Make your network agile and service-oriented

  • The high-speed ENP chip used in the S12700 series is tailored for Ethernet. The chip’s flexible packet processing and traffic control capabilities can meet current and future service requirements, helping build a highly scalable network.
  • In addition to providing all the capabilities of common switches, the S12700 series provides fully programmable open interfaces and supports programmable forwarding behaviors. Enterprises can use the open interfaces to develop new protocols and functions independently, or jointly with other vendors, to build campus networks that meet their needs.
  • The ENP chip uses a fully programmable architecture, on which enterprises can define their own forwarding models, forwarding behaviors, and lookup algorithms. This architecture speeds service innovation and enables the provisioning of a customized service within six months, without replacing hardware. In contrast, traditional Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) chips use a fixed forwarding architecture and follow a fixed forwarding process. For this reason, new services cannot be provisioned until new hardware is developed to support the services, which can take one to three years.

Deliver abundant services agilely

  • The S12700 series’ native AC capabilities allow enterprises to build a wireless network without additional AC hardware. Each S12700 switch can manage 4,096 APs and 65,536 users. It is the first core switch that provides T-bit AC capabilities, avoiding the performance bottleneck on independent AC devices. The native T-bit AC capabilities help organizations better cope with challenges in the high-speed wireless era.
  • The S12700 series’ unified user management function authenticates both wired and wireless users, ensuring a consistent user experience no matter whether they are connected to the network through wired or wireless access devices. The unified user management function supports various authentication methods, including 802.1x, MAC address, and Portal authentication, and is capable of managing users based on user groups, domains, and time ranges. These functions control user and service management and enable the transformation from device-centered management to user-centered management.
  • The S12700 series’ Service Chain function can virtualize value-added service capabilities, such as next-generation firewall. Then these capabilities can be used by campus network entities (such as switches, routers, AC, AP, and terminals), regardless of their physical locations. Service Chain provides a more flexible value-added service deployment solution, which reduces equipment investment and maintenance costs.

Provide agile finely granular management

  • Packet Conservation Algorithm for Internet (iPCA) changes the traditional method that uses simulated traffic for fault location. iPCA technology monitors network quality for any service flow at any network node, at any time, and without extra costs. It can detect temporary service interruptions within one second and can identify faulty ports accurately. This cutting-edge fault detection technology turns “extensive management” into “finely granular management.”
  • Super Virtual Fabric (SVF) technology can not only virtualize fixed-configuration switches into S12700 switch line cards but also virtualize APs as switch ports. With this virtualization technology, a physical network with core/aggregation switches, access switches, and APs can be virtualized into a “super switch”, offering the simplest network management solution.

Industry-leading line cards

  • Using Huawei’s advanced ENP chips, the S12700 series supports several million hardware entries, leaving traditional switches far behind. The S12700 series provides 1M MAC address entries and 3M Forwarding Information Base (FIB) entries, meeting requirements of route-intensive scenarios, such as the Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) for a television broadcasting or education network. Providing 1M NetStream entries enables fine granular traffic statistics for college campus networks and large-scale enterprise campus networks.
  • The S12700 series provides large buffer on line card to prevent packet loss upon traffic bursts, delivering high-quality video services.
  • The S12700 series supports high-density line-speed cards, such as 48 x 10 GE and 8 x 40G cards. Each S12700 chassis can provide a maximum of 576 x 10 GE ports and 96 x 40G ports. This large port capacity fully meets the requirements of bandwidth-consuming applications, such as multimedia video conferencing, protecting customer investments

End-to-end reliability

Device-Level Reliability: CSS2 Switch Fabric Hardware Clustering Technology
Based on back-to-back clustering technology, widely used on high-end core routers, the S12700 series employs second-generation switching fabric hardware clustering technology, CSS2, an enhancement to CSS switching fabric clustering technology.
CSS2 technology connects cluster member switches through switch fabric unit hardware channels; therefore, cluster control and data packets need only be forwarded once by the switch fabric units and do not go through service cards. Compared with traditional service port clustering technologies, CSS2 minimizes the impact of software failures, reduces service interruption risks caused by service cards, and also significantly shortens transmission latency.
CSS2 supports 1+N backup of MPUs. This means a cluster can run stably as long as one MPU of any chassis in the cluster is working normally. In a cluster connected by service ports, each chassis must have at least one MPU working normally; therefore, CSS2 is more reliable than traditional service port clustering technologies.
Network-Level Reliability: End-to-End Hardware Protection Switching
The S12700 uses a series of link detection and protection switching technologies, such as hardware Eth-OAM, BFD, G.8032, and Smart Ethernet Protection (SEP), to realize end-to-end protection switching. These technologies help build a campus network that responds quickly to topology changes and provides the most reliable services.

Comprehensive security measures

  • NGFW is a next-generation firewall card that can be installed on an S12700. In addition to the traditional defense functions such as firewall, identity authentication, and Anti-DDoS, the NGFW supports IPS, anti-spam, web security, and application control functions.
  • The S12700 provides innovative next-generation environment awareness and access control. It identifies the application-layer attacks and protects network-layer applications based on application type, content, time, user, threaten, and location.
  • The dedicated software and hardware platforms provide an Intelligent Aware Engine (IAE) to perceive application information when all security functions are enabled. The built-in hardware accelerator for content detection improves application-layer protection efficiency and ensures the 10G+ performance when all security functions are enabled.
