6 Virtualized Fabric Comprehensive network virtualization capabilities: The CE series uses Virtual System (VS) and Cluster Switch System/intelligent Stack (CSS/iStack) technologies to flexibly adjust network boundaries, meeting requirements for network virtualization. The switches use Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL) and ncenter technologies to support service virtualization and server virtualization. VS for on-demand resource sharing: The CE12800 provides a virtualization capability of 1:8, so one switch can be virtualized into as many as eight logical switches. This capability allows one core switch to manage services for multiple parts of an enterprise (such as production, office, and DMZ) or for multiple tenants. VS technology improves device usage efficiency and reduces network construction costs while maintaining high security. VS (Virtual System) CSS (Cluster Switch System) Campus Office CE12800 Production DMZ Sale CE6800/5800 CE12800 CSS/iStack to simplify network management: The entire CE series supports CSS/iStack, which can virtualize multiple physical switches into one logical switch to simplify network management and improve network reliability. The CE12800 series has an industry-leading clustering capability. Four CE12800 core switches can form a cluster. The CE6800/5800 series also supports a large stack of up to 16 switches. Innovative CSS+VS synergy technology: The CE12800 combines CSS and VS technologies to turn a network into a resource pool so that network resources can be allocated on demand. This ondemand resource allocation is ideal for the cloud-computing service model. Large-scale routing bridge to support flexible service deployment: All CE series switches support TRILL, a standard IETF protocol. The TRILL protocol helps implement a large Layer 2 network with more than 500 nodes. This network allows flexible service deployment and VM migration, free from restrictions imposed by physical locations. 10GE/GE servers can be used on a TRILL network.

8 Non-stop switching core to support service continuity: The CE12800's five types of components (including MPUs, SFUs, CMUs, power supplies, and fans) use a hot backup design. Three types of major buses (monitoring buses, management buses, and data buses) work in redundant mode, ensuring super-high reliability of core nodes. Using Huawei's next-generation VRP8 software platform, the CE12800 supports non-stop anything (NSA) technologies, ensuring continuity of services during service switching. Non-blocking switching architecture to ensure non-stop services: The CE12800's non-blocking switching architecture features an orthogonal switch fabric design, Clos architecture, cell switching, Virtual Output Queuing (VoQ), and super-large buffer. The orthogonal switch fabric greatly improves system bandwidth and evolution capabilities and enables the switching capacity to scale to more than 100 Tbit/s. The cell-switching-based Clos architecture supports dynamic routing, implements load balancing, and allows flexible switch fabric expansion. The VoQ mechanism together with the super-large buffer on inbound interfaces (as much as 12 GB per line card) provides fine-grained QoS, ensures unified service scheduling and sequenced forwarding, and implements nonblocking switching. Lossless switching network to ensure unified service transmission: The CE series supports Data Center Bridging (DCB) to ensure low latency and zero packet loss for the fiber channel (FC) storage services and highspeed computing services. The CE12800 core switch has 2 µs latency, one third of the industry average, making the CE12800 appropriate for latency-sensitive, high-value services such as online video and games. The CE series can implement a lossless, low-latency Ethernet network to transmit storage services, computing services, and data services, reducing costs of network construction and maintenance.
