As the network scale increases, a large number of access devices are required at the network edge, which makes the management of these devices very cumbersome. The main purpose of SmartMC is to solve the problem of centralized management of a large number of scattered network devices. It is designed to solve the switch-based operation and maintenance tasks of small enterprises. SmartMC provides unified operation, maintenance, and management of the network by built-in graphical operation platform.
SmartMC simplifies the operation, maintenance, and management of Small and Medium-sized campuses:
Smart management: includes device role selection, FTP server configuration, global configuration, and network management port configuration, etc.
Intelligent operation and maintenance: include group management, equipment, or group upgrade backup, monitoring and equipment failure replacement, etc.
Visualization: includes networking topology visualization and management, device list display, device ports display, etc.
Smart business: includes user management, etc. After network access users are created and successfully activated, these users can access the SmartMC network through the one-key-armed port.
The H3C S5570S-EI series switches can be used as the management device of SmartMC. You can log in to the SmartMC network through the S5570S-EI to manage the entire network in a unified manner.
H3C S5570S-EI series switches support Telemetry technology, which can push real-time resource information and alarm information of the switch to the operation and maintenance platform through the gRPC protocol. Network quality backtracking, risk warning, architecture optimization and other functions accurately guarantee user experience.
H3C S5570S-EI series switches implement a hardware-based IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack platform, support a variety of tunnel technologies, rich IPv4 and IPv6 Layer 3 routing protocols, multicast technologies and policy routing mechanisms, providing users with complete IPv4 /IPv6 solution.
H3C Intelligent Resilient Framework 2 (IRF 2) virtualizes multiple S5570S-EI switches into one virtual switch and provides the following benefits:
Scalability: IRF 2 allows you to add devices to the IRF 2 system easily. It provides a single point of management, enables switch plug-and-play, and supports software auto-update for software synchronization from the master to the new member devices. It brings business agility with lower total cost of ownership by allowing new switches to be added to the fabric without network topology change as business grows.
High availability: The H3C proprietary routing hot backup technology ensures redundancy and backup of all information on the control and data planes and non-stop Layer 3 data forwarding in an IRF 2 fabric. It also eliminates single point of failure and ensures service continuity.
Redundancy and load balancing: The distributed link aggregation technology supports load sharing and mutual backup among multiple uplinks, which enhances the network redundancy and improves link resources usage.
Flexibility and resiliency: The switch use standard GE ports instead of specialized ports for IRF links between IRF member devices. This allows customers to assign bandwidth as needed between uplink, downlink, and IRF system connections. In addition, an S5570S-EI IRF fabric can span a rack, multiple racks, or multiple campuses.
Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD), in conjunction with the backend system, integrates endpoint security (including anti-virus and patching) and network security (including network access control and access right control) into an interactive security system. By checking, isolating, repairing, managing, and monitoring the endpoints, this system turns reactive single-point defense to proactive, all-round defense, and dispersed management to centralized policy management. This system enhances the overall network protection against numerous security threats and improves the responsiveness to new threats.
The switch supports unified MAC address authentication, 802.1x authentication, and portal authentication; dynamic or static binding of user identifiers such as user account, IP address, MAC address, VLAN, and port number; and dynamic application of user profiles or policies (such as VLAN, QoS, and ACL) on users. Using the switch in conjunction with H3C IMC, you can manage and monitor online users in real time and take prompt action on illegitimate behaviors.
The switch offers a large number of inbound and outbound ACLs and VLAN-based ACL assignment.
The switch supports Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (uRPF), which protects a network against source spoofing attacks, preventing DoS and DDoS attacks and implement security mechanisms against DoS-type attacks, such as SYN flood, ICMP flood and Smurf.
The S5570S-EI series switches have multiple reliability protections at the device level and link level.
The S5570S-EI series switches support the reliability design of dual pluggable AC and DC power modules, and can flexibly configure AC or DC power modules according to the needs of the actual environment. In addition, the whole machine also supports power supply and fan fault detection and alarms. These designs enable the equipment to have higher reliability.
In addition to device-level reliability, the product also supports a wealth of link-level reliability technologies, including LACP/STP/RSTP/MSTP/Smart Link/RRPP fast ring network protection mechanisms and other protection protocols, and supports IRF2 intelligent elastic architecture, supports 1: N redundancy backup, supports ring stacking, which greatly improves network reliability. When the network carries multiple services and large traffic, it does not affect the network convergence time, ensuring the normal operation of services.
It supports basic network protection mechanism functions, and supports various types of protection, such as ARP protection. When the ARP rate exceeds the attack threshold, users who have attack behaviors are isolated.
The S5570S-EI series switches offer abundant QoS features, including:
Packet filtering based on packet header fields from Layer 2 through Layer 4, including source MAC, destination MAC, source IP, destination IP, TCP/UDP port number, protocol type, and VLAN.
