Huawei CE8850-32CQ-EI Switch product Overview

Huawei CE8850-32CQ-EI Switch is 100G Ethernet switch, which is designed for data centres and high-end campus networks. The product provides extensive data centre service features and high stacking capability. The airflow direction (front-to-back or back-to-front) can be changed. At the same time, CE8850-32CQ-EI Switch can function as core or aggregation switches on data centre networks to help enterprises and carriers build a scalable data centre network platform in the cloud computing era. They can also be used as aggregation or core switches for enterprise campus networks. Additionally, CE8800 supports the IETF Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL) protocol.
A TRILL network can contain more than 500 nodes, enabling flexible service deployments and large-scale Virtual Machine (VM) migrations. The TRILL protocol uses a routing mechanism similar to IS-IS and sets a limited Time-to-Live (TTL) value in packets to prevent Layer 2 loops. This significantly improves network stability and speeds up network convergence. On a TRILL network, all data flows are forwarded quickly using Shortest Path First (SPF) and Equal-Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) routing. SPF and ECMP avoid the suboptimal path selection problem in STP and increase link bandwidth efficiency to 100 percent.
What’s more, CE8800 supports TRILL-based Layer 2 equal-cost paths, greatly improving links’ load balancing capabilities. The network has a fat-tree architecture that enhances expansion.

Huawei CE8850-32CQ-EI Switch product Features

• CE8800 can work with a mainstream virtualization platform. As the high-performance, hardware gateway of an overlay network (VXLAN), the CE8800 can support more than 16M tenants.
• CE8800 can connect to a cloud platform through an open API to provide unified management of software and hardware networks.
• CE8800 supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). ZTP enables the CE8800 to automatically obtain and load version files from a USB flash drive or file server, freeing network engineers from onsite configuration or deployment. ZTP reduces labor costs and improves device deployment efficiency.
• CE8800 supports Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), which permits storage, data, and computing services to be transmitted on one network, reducing the costs of network construction and maintenance.
• CE8800 supports centralized FCoE/FC gateway deployment, which makes network O&M simpler.
• Various CE8800 features ensure lossless transmission: Priority-based Flow Control (PFC), Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) and Data Center Bridging eXchange (DCBX). These features ensure low latency and zero packet loss for FC storage and high-speed computing services.
