·       High-density 25G/100G/200G/400G ports

The NSS7830-09C adopts advanced hardware architecture with up to 128*10/25G, 128*40/100G, 64*200G, 32*400G interfaces in compact 4U device. The port combination fully satisfies the interface density requirement of data center scenarios. architecture.

 

·       M-LAG for cross-device link aggregation

The NSS7830-09C supports multi-chassis link aggregation group (M-LAG), which enables links of multiple switches to aggregate into one to implement cross-device link backup. The rest of switches in the M-LAG group are working actively regardless any switch failure. During the upgrade, other switches in the system take over traffic forwarding to ensure uninterrupted services.

 

·       VxLAN for Layer2 Virtualized Deployment

The NSS7830-09C can work with the industry's mainstream virtualization platforms and acts a hardware gateway on an VxLAN overlay network. Virtual extensible LANs (VxLAN), a common network virtualization overlay protocol that expands the layer 2 network address space from 4,000 to 16 million. NSS7830-09C supports BGP-EVPN, which is used as the overlay control plane and provides virtual connectivity between different layer 2/3 domains over an IP or MPLS network.

 

·       RoCEv2 Lossless Ethernet Technology

The NSS7830-09C supports lossless Ethernet (RoCEv2) features such as Priority-based Flow Control (PFC) and Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) control algorithms which can avoid packet loss and message retransmission that may occur in traditional Ethernet protocols when encountering network congestion, reduce network latency and jitter, and thus achieve higher performance and lower latency.

 

·       Telemetry for intelligent OAM

The NSS7830-09C provides telemetry technology to collect device data in real time and send the management data to customer network analyzer platform. Telemetry systems, done properly, play an important role in providing you with information about the health of your network, so you can respond intelligently to prevent hardware failure and network downtime. It can help customers to identify and analyze network problems which affect user experience.

 

·       Netconf & Restfonf API Integration

The NSS7830-09C supports NETCONF and Restconf API and can work with 3rd party SDN controller for simplified device remote configuration.

 

·       Reliable hardware design and energy-saving

The NSS7830-09C uses a standard airflow design which isolates cold air channels from hot air channels. This design improves heat dissipation efficiency and meets design requirements of data center. It adopts hot swap redundant power modules and fans which ensure hardware reliability and non-stopping operation. The fan speed can be adjusted dynamically based on system workload.

 

·       Free Licensing Policy

Maipu always insists on “One-time investment” free license policy, the standard features and advanced features will be never divided to different version. For any new firmware version, Maipu will share to customers without extra charge. Compared with other manufacturers, Maipu free license policy can better protect users' short-term and long-term investment.
