Product Features and highlights
Various Combination of Ports
The S5710-HI has four subcard slots that can accommodate various extended subcards to provide high-•
density 10GE/40GE uplink ports. With its eight fixed 10GE SFP+ ports, the S5710-HI can have different
subcards installed to provide flexible combination of ports, including 48*GE+8*10GE, 96*GE+8*10GE,
96*GE+12*10GE, and 96*GE+8*10GE+4*40GE.
In addition, the S5710-HI provides both optical and
electrical ports for flexible access and supports PoE+. The flexible port combinations meet different
bandwidth upgrading requirements and protect customers' investment.
Comprehensive VPN Technologies
The S5700-HI allows users in different VPNs to connect to the same switch and isolates users through •
multi-instance routing. The S5710-HI supports Mu
ltiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) QoS, MPLS traffic
engineering (TE), virtual leased line (VLL), virtual private LAN service (VPLS), and Layer 3 virtual private
network (L3VPN). They can provide high-quality private line access services for enterprises and are cost-
effective case-shaped MPLS switches.
Flexible Ethernet Networking
In addition to traditional Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), and Multiple •
Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), the S5700-HI supports Huawei-developed Smart Ethernet Protection (SEP)
technology and the latest Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) standard. SEP is a ring protection
protocol specific to the Ethernet link layer, and applies to various ring network topologies, such as
open ring topology, closed ring topology, and cascading
ring topology. This protocol is reliable, easy
to maintain, and implements fast protection switching within 50 ms. ERPS is defined in ITU-T G.8032.
It implements millisecond-level protection switching based on traditional Ethernet MAC and bridging
functions.
The S5700-HI supports Smart Link and Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), which implement •
backup of uplinks. One S5700-HI switch can c
onnect to multiple aggregation switches through multiple
links, significantly improving reliability of access devices. In addition, the S5700-HI provides multiple
connection fault detection mechanisms, including Ethernet OAM (IEEE 802.3ah/802.1ag /ITU Y.1731)
and Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD). The S5700-HI (except S5710-HI)provides hardware-based
3.3 ms Ethernet OAM and 10 ms BFD.
Diversified Security Control
The S5700-HI supports MAC address authentication and 802.1X authentication and implements dynamic •
delivery of policies (VLAN, QoS, and ACL) to users.
