Strengthens Enterprise Solutions
Virtual Port Extenders v1.0 (VPEX) (Beta only)
A standards based bridge port extension(IEEE 802.1br) that provides lower OPEX and operational simplicity without compromising on features by facilitating a single switch (controller bridge) to do the work of several low cost switches (port extenders).
Multiprotocol Border Gateway Protocol for VXLAN
BGP implementation carries VXLAN Network Identifier (VNI) and Local VXLAN Tunnel Endpoint (LTEP) combinations as MBGP routes using a proprietary afi/safi combination.
ARP Suppression
Reduces networks flooding caused by broadcast traffic from ARP requests by allowing Virtual Tunnel End Points (VTEPs) to proxy ARP requests and reply on behalf of the remote endpoint.
Explicit Congestion Notification
ECN allows end-to-end notification of network congestion without dropping packets.
Enhance Ease of Use & Serviceability Capabilities
Digital Diagnostics MIBEntity MIB will provide access to object that will allow to identify physical system components, sensor values and status of transceivers.
USB Support for ZTPSwitch configuration can be copied at boot-up or while running from USB using Zero Touch Provisioning.
