CloudEngine 01

Next-Generation Core Engine Provides the Industry's Highest Performance

64 Tbit/s Switching Capacity

• The CE12800 provides 4 Tbit/s per-slot bidirectional bandwidth (scalable to 10 Tbit/s) and a maximum

of 64 Tbit/s switching capacity (scalable to more than 160 Tbit/s). This capacity can support sustainable

development of cloud-computing data centers for the next 10 years.

• The CE12800, together with the 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 18,000*10GE servers or 70,000*GE servers and support data center server evolution across four

generations from GE, 10GE, 40GE, and ultimately 100GE.

Terabit 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 24*40GE/96*10GE to

12*100GE.

• The CE12800 provides as many as 192*100GE, 384*40GE, or 1,536*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.

128 Tbit/s 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, with a capacity of 128 Tbit/s.

• The CE12832 builds a strict non-blocking system using Clos. All traffic between two CE12816 chassis can

be forwarded without occupying any service interface.

• 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.

Product Characteristics

02 CloudEngine

• 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 on-

demand 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.

• The CE12800 switches establish a cluster using service ports with distances of up to 80 km between

cluster member switches.

• The CE12800 uses CSS+VS synergy technology to turn a network into a resource pool so that network

resources can be allocated on demand. On-demand resource allocation is ideal for the cloud-computing

service model.

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 Equal-

cost 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' load-

balancing 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.

CloudEngine 03

• 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.

nCenter Implements Fast VM Migration

• The CE12800 works with Huawei's nCenter automated network management platform to permit

network policies to be dynamically deployed on the CE12800. nCenter also supports online VM

migration.

• nCenter 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.

• nCenter 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 Huawei's innovative, programmable Ethernet Network Processor (ENP). The

high-performance 480 Gbit/s 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 service-

oriented, 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 (NVGRE/VXLAN), 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

04 CloudEngine

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 CE12800

improve system reliability and ensure service continuity.

CloudEngine 05

High-Performance VRP8 Software Architecture

• The CE12800 takes advantage of Huawei's next-generation VRP8, a high-performance, highly reliable

modular software platform that provides continuous services.

• Fine-grained distributed architecture: VRP8, the industry's high-end software platform, uses a fine-

grained, fully distributed architecture that can process network protocols and services concurrently using

multiple instances. This architecture takes full advantage of multi-core/multi-CPU processes to maximize

performance and reliability.

• Highly reliable In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU): VRP8 supports ISSU.

Pioneering Energy-saving Technologies

Strict Front-to-Back Airflow Design

• The CE12800 uses a patented front-to-back airflow design that isolates cold air channels from hot air

channels. This design meets heat dissipation requirements in data center equipment rooms.

• Line cards and the switching network use independent airflow channels, which solve the problems of

mixing hot and cold air and cascade heating, and effectively reduce energy consumption in equipment

rooms.

• Each fan tray has two counter-rotating fans, ensuring efficient heat dissipation.

• The fan speed in each area can be dynamically adjusted based on the workload of line cards in the area.

This on-demand cooling design lowers power consumption and reduces noise.

Low Power Consumption (5 W/10GE)

• The CE12800 uses innovative energy saving technologies. Each 10GE port consumes only 5 W power,

which is half the industry standard. It greatly reduces power consumption in the data center equipment

room.

• Miercom has performed a series of strict tests for the CE12800, proving its low power consumption.

• Miercom test report: http://enterprise.huawei.com/ilink/cnenterprise/download/HW_200123.

Efficient, Intelligent Power Supply System

• The CE12800 incorporates the industry's most efficient digital power modules, which provide power

efficiency of 96 percent.

• The power supply system measures power consumption in real time and puts one or more power

modules into sleep mode when system power demands are low.

• The CE12800 can save energy dynamically by adjusting the power consumption of components to adapt

to changes in service traffic volume.

On a typical data center network, CE12800/

CE7800 switches work as core switches and

CE6800/CE5800 switches work as ToR switches.

CE6800/CE5800 switches connect to CE12800/

CE7800 switches through 40GE/10GE ports. The

CE12800/CE7800 and CE6800/CE5800 switches

use the TRILL protocol to build a non-blocking

Layer 2 network, which allows large-scale VM

migrations and flexible service deployments.

Note: The TRILL protocol can be also used on

campus networks to support flexible service

deployments in different service areas.


The CE7800 can be used on a campus network. Its high-density, line-speed 40GE ports and high stacking

capability can meet the ever-increasing demand for network bandwidth. CE7800 switches are cost-

effective campus network switches, thanks to their extensive service features and innovative energy-saving

technologies.

On a typical campus network, two CE12800/CE7800 switches are virtualized into a logical core switch using

CSS or iStack technology. Multiple CE6800 switches at the aggregation layer form a logical switch using

iStack technology. CSS and iStack improve network reliability and simplify network management. At the

access layer, CE5800 switches are virtualized with SVF to provide high-density line-speed ports.

Note: iStack technology is also widely used in data centers to facilitate network management.

High-density 10GE Access

• The CE6800 provides 1.28 Tbit/s switching capacity, the industry's highest performance in a 1 U ToR. The

switch provides forwarding performance of 960 Mpps and supports L2/L3 line-speed forwarding.

• The CE6800 not only meets the requirements for high-density 10GE server access, but also provides the

industry's highest 10GE port density in a 1 U ToR with a maximum of 64*10GE ports.

• The CE6800 has four 40GE QSFP+ ports. Each QSFP+ port can be used as four 10GE SFP+ ports,

providing a flexible network. CE6800 switches can work with CE12800 switches through the 40GE

QSFP+ ports to build a non-blocking network platform.



» A stack system of 16 member switches has a maximum of 768*10GE access ports that provide high-density server access in a data center.

» Multiple switches in a stack system are virtualized into one logical device, making it possible to build a scalable, easy-to-manage data center network platform.

» A stack system separates the control plane from the data plane. This eliminates the risk of single-point failures and greatly improves system reliability.

• Long-distance, highly reliable stacking

» The CE6800 can use service ports as stack ports. A stack system can be established with switches in the same rack or different racks, and even over long distances.

» Service and stack bandwidths can be allocated based on the network's scale so that network resources can be used more efficiently.

Vertical Virtualization Simplifies Management

• The CE6800 supports Super Virtual Fabric (SVF), which can virtualize multiple homogeneous or

heterogeneous physical switches into one logical switch to simplify network management and improve

reliability.

• SVF implements vertical extension of heterogeneous switches and virtualizes multiple leaf switches into

remote cards of the spine switch, making it easier to install cables in equipment rooms and manage

devices. The CE6850 functions as the spine switch and the CE6810 as the leaf switch.

» Huawei's SVF is the first in the industry to implement local forwarding of leaf switches. When horizontal traffic is the mainstream traffic in a data center, SVF improves forwarding efficiency and reduces network delay.

used on a large Layer 2 TRILL network with GE/10GE servers. A TRILL network can contain more than

500 nodes, enabling flexible service deployments and large-scale Virtual Machine (VM) migrations.



convergence.

• On a TRILL network, all data flows are forwarded quickly using Shortest Path First (SPF) and Equal-cost

Multi-path (ECMP) routing. SPF and ECMP avoid the suboptimal path selection problem in STP and

increase link bandwidth efficiency to 100 percent.

• The CE6800 supports TRILL-based Layer 2 equal-cost paths, greatly improving links' load balancing

capabilities. The network has a fat-tree architecture that enhances expansion.

Converged Enhanced Ethernet, Data, Storage, and Computing Traffic over One Network

• CE6800 series switches support Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), which permits storage, data, and

computing services to be transmitted on one network, reducing the costs of network construction and

maintenance.

• CE6800 series switches support centralized FCoE/FC gateway deployment, which makes network O&M

simpler.

• Various CE6800 features ensure lossless transmission: Priority-based Flow Control (PFC), Enhanced

Transmission Selection (ETS) and Data Center Bridging eXchange (DCBX). These features ensure low

latency and zero packet loss for FC storage and high-speed computing services.


• The CE6800 works with Huawei's nCenter automated network management platform to permit network

policies to be dynamically deployed on the CE6800. nCenter also supports online VM migration.
