Huawei CloudEngine CE12804 Modular Core Data‑Center Switch

Product Overview

Key Features

• Modular high‑capacity hardware platform: 11U 19‑inch rack‑mount chassis with 4 LPU service slots, 2 MPU slots, 2 CMU slots, 6 SFU switching fabric slots, 4 power slots and 9 fan slots. Supports rich hot‑swappable interface cards of 10GE,25GE,40GE,100GE. Strict front‑to‑back airflow design adapts to standard data‑center cabinet deployment. All critical components support 1+N redundancy and hot‑swap for non‑stop hardware replacement.
• Full‑feature Layer 2 / Layer 3 and data‑center protocol stack: IPv4/IPv6 dual‑stack, static routing, RIP/OSPF/IS‑IS/BGP, VRRP, ECMP, hardware‑accelerated BFD. Rich Layer‑2 functions: 802.1Q VLAN, selective QinQ, STP/RSTP/MSTP, LACP link aggregation. Supports CSS cluster, VS virtual system, TRILL, VXLAN‑EVPN, SVF vertical virtualization and FCoE converged storage‑computing networking. Comprehensive multicast suite: IGMP Snooping, PIM‑SM/DM/SSM, MSDP, MBGP for IPTV and massive high‑definition video‑surveillance traffic forwarding.
• Multi‑dimensional security protection: Supports 802.1X, MAC‑based authentication, DHCP Snooping, ARP anti‑spoofing, ACL filtering, DoS‑attack defense, IP source guard, port security and broadcast/multicast/unknown‑unicast storm suppression, implementing strict fine‑grained access control and threat mitigation for mission‑critical networks.
• Carrier‑grade advanced QoS: Multi‑field traffic classification based on Layer2‑Layer4 headers; supports SP, WRR, DRR queue scheduling, traffic policing, shaping and WRED congestion‑avoidance mechanisms to guarantee transmission quality for critical services and large‑volume video streams.
• Industrial‑grade high‑availability design: Supports CSS cluster for device‑level redundancy, GR/NSR non‑stop routing, ISSU in‑service software upgrade, link‑level fast‑protection mechanisms, minimizing service‑interruption risks. Adopts multiple green energy‑saving technologies to reduce overall power consumption.
• Open and intelligent O&M: Supports Zero‑Touch Provisioning, OPS open‑programmable capability, NetStream and sFlow traffic analysis. Management interfaces include Console CLI, SSH, SNMP v1/v2c/v3, Syslog, FTP/SFTP, out‑of‑band Ethernet management port and USB port. Compatible with Huawei iMaster NCE‑Campus for centralized deployment and monitoring of ultra‑large‑scale networks.
