• The CE12800, together with the CE8800/CE7800/CE6800/CE5800 series of Top-of-Rack (TOR) switches, can implement the largest non-blocking switching network in the industry. This network can provide access for up to tens of thousands of 25GE or 10GE servers.

4Terabit High-Density Line Cards
• The forwarding capacity of a line card can reach up to 1.2 Tbit/s.
• The CE12800 line cards provide the industry's highest port densities, from 36*40GE to  36*100GE/144*25GE/144*10GE.
• The CE12800 provides as many as 576*100GE, 576*40GE, 2,304*25GE, or 2,304*10GE line-speed ports.

Super-Large Buffer of 18 GB
• All service ports (100GE/40GE/10GE/GE) support a super-large buffer.
• The distributed buffer mechanism on inbound interfaces can effectively handle incast traffic loads in data centers.
• The line card provides up to 18 GB buffer, which is dynamically shared by interfaces to improve usage efficiency.

Back-to-Back Non-Blocking System
• The CE12816 is the industry's first data center core switch to support a non-blocking system. Two CE12816s can be upgraded to the CE12832 through back-to-back Cluster Switch Systems (CSSs) of Switch Fabric Units (SFUs). The new device provides 32 service slots.
• The CE12832 builds a strict non-blocking system using Clos.
• The CE12832 can be upgraded through a CE12816 in-service upgrade. During the upgrade, services are
not affected. This ensures continuous evolution and expansion of the customer service system.

Comprehensive Virtualization Capabilities Implement Simple, Efficient Networking

VS Implements On-demand Resource Sharing
• Highest device virtualization capability: The CE12800 uses Virtual System (VS) technology to provide an industry-leading virtualization capability that enables one switch to be virtualized into as many as sixteen logical switches. This 1:16 ratio enables one core switch to manage services for an enterprise's multiple service areas such as production, office, and DMZ, or for multiple tenants.
• Higher security and reliability: VS technology divides a network into separate logical areas for service isolation. The failure of one virtual switch does not affect other virtual switches, enhancing network security.
• Lower CAPEX: VS technology improves the use efficiency of physical devices by implementing ondemand resource allocation. This ensures network scalability and reduces investment in devices.
• Lower OPEX: Using one physical device to implement multiple logical devices saves space in a data center equipment room and reduces the cost of device maintenance.

CSS Simplifies Network Management
• The CE12800 uses industry-leading CSS technology, which can virtualize multiple physical switches into one logical switch to facilitate network management and improve reliability.
• The CE12800 provides the dedicated system inter-connect port and separates the control channel from the service channel, improving reliability.
• The CE12800 provides a cluster bandwidth of 1.6 Tbit/s. This super-high bandwidth prevents traffic bottlenecks on data center networks.

Large-Scale Routing Bridge Supports Flexible Service Deployment
• The CE12800 series switches support Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL), a standard IETF protocol. The TRILL protocol helps build a large Layer 2 network with more than 500 nodes, which permits flexible service deployments and Virtual Machine (VM) migrations. A TRILL network can use
10GE/GE servers.
• The TRILL protocol uses a routing mechanism similar to IS-IS and sets a limited Time-to-Live (TTL) value in packets to prevent Layer 2 loops. This significantly improves network stability and speeds up network convergence.
• On a TRILL network, all data flows are forwarded quickly using Shortest Path First (SPF) and Equalcost Multi-path (ECMP) routing. SPF and ECMP avoid the problem of suboptimal path selection in the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and increase link bandwidth efficiency to 100 percent.
• The CE12800 supports up to 32 TRILL-based Layer 2 equal-cost paths, greatly improving links' loadbalancing capabilities. The network's fat-tree architecture supports easy expansion.

EVN Supports Resource Sharing Across Data Centers
• The Ethernet Virtual Network (EVN) implements inter-data center Layer 2 interconnection across the IP WAN, and integrates multiple data centers into a large IT resource pool. VMs can migrate between data centers. EVN supports Layer 2 interconnection of a maximum of 32 data centers, which enable scalability that is 5 times higher than the industry. EVN combines the advantages of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) to provide high scalability and highly efficient use of bandwidth.
• High scalability: Based on BGP at the control plane, the CE12800 supports millions of MAC addresses and routes, 32K tenants, and 256K VMs.
• Highly efficient bandwidth usage: The forwarding plane uses VXLAN encapsulation. Flow-based load balancing is implemented on the entire network, which optimizes bandwidth usage.

Agile Controller Implements Fast VM Migration
• The CE12800 works with HW's Agile Controller to permit network policies to be dynamically
deployed on the CE12800. Agile Controller also supports online VM migration.
• Agile Controller delivers network policies through high-speed RADIUS interfaces. Its online VM migration is 10 to 20 times the rate of other industry platforms, enabling large-scale VM migrations.
• Agile Controller is based on open APIs and is compatible with all major virtualization platforms including VMware.

Fully Programmable Switch Permits Agile Service Provisioning

ENP Implements Programmability at the Forwarding Plane
• The CE12800 is based on HW's innovative, programmable Ethernet Network Processor (ENP). The high-performance ENP card implements openness and definition capabilities for the first time at the forwarding plane on data center networks.
• The ENP card defines network functions through software and extends network functions. When new services are provisioned, there is no need to invest in replacement hardware.
• The ENP card reduces service provisioning from two years to six months - an improvement of four times over current industry capabilities that help customers to quickly implement service innovations. OPS Implements Programmability at the Control Plane

• The CE12800 uses the Open Programmability System (OPS) embedded in the VRP8 software platform to provide programmability at the control plane.
• The OPS provides open APIs. APIs can be integrated with mainstream cloud platforms (including commercial and open cloud platforms) and third-party controllers. The OPS enables services to be flexibly customized and provides automatic management.
• Users or third-party developers can use open APIs to develop and deploy specialized network
management policies to implement extension of fast service functions, automatic deployment, and
intelligent management. The OPS also implements automatic operation and maintenance, and reduces management costs.
• The OPS provides seamless integration of data center service and network in addition to a serviceoriented, Software-Defined Network (SDN). Virtualized Gateway Achieves Fast Service Deployment

• The CE12800 can work with a mainstream virtualization platform. As the high-performance, hardware gateway of an overlay network (VXLAN/NVGRE), a CE series switch can support more than 16M tenants.
• The CE12800 can connect to a cloud platform through an open API to provide unified management of software and hardware networks.
• This function implements fast service deployment without changing the customer network. It also
protects customer investments.

ZTP Implements Zero-Configuration Deployment
• The CE12800 supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). ZTP enables the CE12800 to automatically obtain and load version files from a USB flash drive or file server, freeing network engineers from onsite configuration or deployment. ZTP reduces labor costs and improves device deployment efficiency.
• ZTP provides built-in scripts for users through open APIs. Data center personnel can use the programming language they are familiar with, such as Python, to provide unified configuration of network devices.
• ZTP decouples configuration time of new devices from device quantity and area distribution, which improves service provisioning efficiency.

Advanced Architecture Ensures Industry-Leading Network Quality

High-Performance, Non-blocking Switching Architecture
• The CE12800's non-blocking switching architecture includes an orthogonal switch fabric design, Clos architecture, cell switching, Virtual Output Queuing (VOQ), and a super-large buffer.
• Orthogonal switch fabric design: CE12800 service line cards and switch fabric units (SFUs) use an orthogonal design in which service traffic between line cards is directly sent to the SFUs through orthogonal connectors. This approach reduces backplane cabling and minimizes signal attenuation.
The orthogonal design can support signal rates as high as 25 Gbit/s per Serdes, which is 2.5 times the industry average. This design greatly improves system bandwidth and evolution capabilities, enabling the system switching capacity to scale to more than 100 Tbit/s.
• Clos architecture: The CE12800's three-level Clos architecture permits flexible expansion of switch fabric capacity. The architecture uses Variable Size Cell (VSC) and provides dynamic routing. Load balancing among multiple switch fabrics prevents the switching matrix from being blocked and easily copes with complex, volatile traffic in data centers.
• VOQ: The CE12800 supports 96,000 VOQ queues that implement fine-grained Quality of Service (QoS) based on the switch fabrics. With the VOQ mechanism and super-large buffer on inbound interfaces, the CE12800 creates independent VOQ queues on inbound interfaces to perform end-to-end flow control on traffic destined for different outbound interfaces. This method ensures unified service scheduling and sequenced forwarding and implements non-blocking switching.

Highly Reliable Industry-grade Hardware Architecture
• Hot backup of five key components: Main Processing Units (MPUs) and Centralized Monitoring Unit (CMUs) work in 1+1 hot backup mode. SFUs work in N+M hot backup mode. Power supplies support dual inputs and N+N backup and have their own fans. Both fan trays work in 1+1 backup mode; each fan tray has two counter-rotating fans working in 1+1 backup mode, ensuring efficient heat dissipation.
• Redundancy of three types of major buses: Monitoring, management, and data buses all work in 1+1 backup mode. Bus redundancy ensures reliable signal transmission.
• Independent triple-plane design: The independent control, data, and monitoring planes of the
