SmartMC (Intelligent Management Center)

With the increase of network scale, network edge needs to use a large number of access devices, which makes the management of these devices very cumbersome. The main purpose of SmartMC is to solve the centralized management problem of a large number of decentralized network devices. It is designed to solve the operation and maintenance tasks of small enterprises mainly based on switches. SmartMC realizes the unified operation, maintenance and management of the network by means of built-in equipment and graphical operation

IRF2 (the second generation intelligent elastic architecture)

H3C IE4320 series industrial switches support IRF2 (the second generation intelligent elastic architecture) technology, which connects multiple physical devices to each other, making them virtual as a logical device. In other words, users can manage and use these multiple devices as a single device. The IE4320 series switches can be virtualized not only through the 10 gigabit optical interface, but also through the gigabit optical interface and gigabit electrical interface. The IRF2 function can be realized through the network cable. The gigabit optical ports of the IE4320 series can work at 2.5G and 5G speeds when using stacked cables to improve the stack bandwidth.

IRF can bring the following benefits to users:

• After the formation of the simplified management IRF architecture, you can connect to any port of any device to log in to the unified logical device. By configuring a single device, you can manage the entire intelligent elastic system and all member devices in the system, instead of physically connecting to each member device to configure and manage them separately.

• The various control protocols running in the logical devices formed by the simplified service IRF also operate uniformly as a single device. For example, the routing protocol will be calculated uniformly as a single device. With the application of cross device link aggregation technology, it can replace the original spanning tree protocol, which can eliminate the interaction of a large number of protocol packets between devices, simplify the network operation, and shorten the convergence time in case of network turbulence.

• Elastic expansion can realize elastic expansion according to user needs to ensure user investment. In addition, when adding or leaving the IRF architecture, the new devices can be "hot swapped" without affecting the normal operation of other devices.

• The high reliability of IRF is embodied in three aspects: link, equipment and protocol. The physical ports between member devices support the aggregation function, and the physical connection between the IRF system and the upper and lower layer devices also supports the aggregation function, which improves the reliability of the link through multi link backup; The IRF system is composed of multiple member devices. Once the master device fails, the system will quickly and automatically elect a new master to ensure uninterrupted business through the system, so as to achieve device level 1: N backup; The IRF system will have a real-time protocol hot backup function to back up the protocol configuration information to all other member devices, so as to achieve 1: N protocol reliability.

• High performance For Ethernet switches, the improvement of performance and port density will be limited by the hardware structure. The performance and port density of the IRF system are the sum of the performance of all devices and the number of ports in the IRF. Therefore, IRF technology can easily expand the switching capacity of the device and the density of user ports several times, thus greatly improving the performance of the device.

Support IEEE1588v2 clock synchronization protocol

IEEE 1588v2 is a master-slave synchronization system. During the synchronization of the system, the master clock periodically releases the PTP time synchronization protocol and time information, receives the time stamp information from the master clock port, and the system calculates the time delay and master-slave time difference of the master-slave line, and uses the time difference to adjust the local time, so that the time of the slave device remains the same frequency and phase as the time of the master device. IEEE1588v2 can realize frequency synchronization and time synchronization at the same time. The accuracy of time transmission mainly depends on the frequency accuracy of the two conditional counters and the symmetry of the link. Compared with traditional time service technology, IEEE1588v2 has obvious advantages. It adopts bidirectional channel, with accuracy of ns level, low cost, and can adapt to different access environments. In the context of the increasing demand for accuracy in the industry, IEEE1588v2 has become an inevitable trend of development.

Complete security control strategy

H3C IE4320 series industrial switches support the innovative single port multi authentication Triple function. In the network environment with diverse client forms, different clients support different access authentication methods. For example, some clients can only authenticate MAC addresses (such as printer terminals), some user hosts can only authenticate 802.1X, and some user hosts only want to authenticate Portal through Web access. In order to flexibly adapt to the multi authentication requirements of this network environment, IE4320 series industrial switches support the unified deployment mode of single port multi authentication, allowing users to choose any suitable authentication mechanism for authentication, and only one mode of authentication is required to achieve access. The client provides the Guest VLAN function, so that the authorized access terminal can only access specific resources, and will take corresponding strategies, such as obtaining 802.1X clients, upgrading clients, or obtaining other upgrading programs. Supporting Secure Shell V2 (SSH V2) features can provide Secure information assurance and powerful authentication functions to protect Ethernet switches from attacks such as IP address fraud and plaintext password interception.
