Advanced technologies
Uses H3C's leading Comware network operating system to provide intelligent service scheduling management mechanism, and supports loose coupling of different service modules as well as the dynamic loading of processes and patches.
Adopts an outstanding high-performance, multi-core CPU processor, which greatly enhances concurrent multi-service processing capabilities.
Uses H3C-proprietary innovative intelligent link engine CUBE technology that not only enhances SIC card bus bandwidth, but also enables automatic interface resource allocation.
Powerful security features
Service security
●Packet filtering, including stateful filtering, MAC address filtering, IP and port number filtering, and time range filtering.
●Real-time traffic analysis.
Network security
●Rich and comprehensive VPN technologies, including IPSec, L2TP, GRE, MPLS VPN and mix usage of different VPN technologies.
●Routing security protection, including OSPF/RIP/IS-IS/BGP dynamic routing protocol, OSPFv3/RIPng/IS-ISv6/BGP IPSec encryption and rich routing policy control functions.
End device access security
●Unified endpoint access binding authentication, including EAD secure check authentication, 802.1X authentication, endpoint MAC address authentication, web-based portal authentication, endpoint access static binding, and MAC address auto-learning and binding.
●ARP attack prevention, including fixed source MAC address, ARP attack protection, ARP source suppression, ARP detection, source MAC consistency check and protection, ARP rate limit, and ARP active acknowledgement mechanism.
Equipment management security
●Role-based access control that allocates resources based on roles, and provides users and roles mapping.
●Control plane traffic restriction, traffic control and filtering based on protocol type, queue, known protocol and specific protocol.
●Remote security management, such as SNMPv3, SSH, and HTTPS remote management.
●Management behavior control and audit, including AAA server central authentication, command line authority and real-time report of operation records.
Granular control
●Uses granular identification and control to rate limit and filter application layer services and ensure bandwidth and provides detailed network statistics for network optimization.
●Performs load balancing based on bandwidth, user, user group, service, or application by using asymmetric link, traffic load balancing, and multi-topology dynamic routing technologies.
●Supports flexible bandwidth sharing based on service, user, user group, link, and user bandwidth.
Intelligent network management
Comprehensive network management methods—Supports command line and SNMP.
Zero-configuration setup—Enables zero configuration setup and USB-based automatic configuration.
Comware embedded EAA function—Monitors the internal events and status of the system's software and hardware components. If a fault occurs, it collects diagnostic information and attempts to make automatic repairs as well as sending the diagnostic information to a specific email address.
High availability
Independent hardware processing module for monitoring and programmable components that supports online upgrade and auto loading to strengthen product reliability.
Millisecond link fault detection technology Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) and Track between BFD and static routing, RIP/OSPF/BGP/ISIS dynamic routing, VRRP, or interface backup.
Network quality analyzer (NQA) and Track between NQA and static routing, VRRP, or interface backup.
Multi-device redundancy and load balancing (VRRP/VRRPE).
Fast reroute, and GR/NSR.
Cloud interconnection
Support of using VXLAN to provide Layer 2 connection in data centers. VXLAN-provided Layer 2 connection can be achieved simply by deploying edge devices with VXLAN capabilities without changing the original network structure. This reduces the networking cost and can provide enhanced security for traffic transmitted in the public network if used together with IPsec technologies.
