VSC makes things simple Offsite disaster recovery

• Industry-leading virtual switching cluster technology, VSC, can virtualize multiple devices into a cluster system, simplifying network topology and management difficulties.
• Stacking through the service interface, up to 80km distance, so that the off-site disaster recovery and backup more secure and reliable
• Industry's largest stacking bandwidth of 320Gbps, eliminating bandwidth bottlenecks in the stacking system.
• Optimized local forwarding mechanism greatly reduces traversal traffic between stacked systems
• Innovative multi-master and multi-backup device management mechanism, with "zero-perception" of master/backup switching.
• Supports multiple virtualization technologies, good support for cloud applications

Unique multi-dimensional security architecture strengthens the core of ultra-stable network.

• Security architecture: redundant configuration of important control and switching modules, fans, and power supplies in the system, supporting hot-swapping.
• Security control: control plane and forwarding, monitoring and complete isolation, no impact on each other; multi-core multi-process processing device management, routing, table synchronization and other operations, without mutual influence; CPU protection makes the core control solid as gold.
• Security system: fully distributed modular software system architecture supports intelligent dynamic loading and updating at the process level, flexible overlaying of new features, and upgrading without affecting the business; supports distributed processing of protocols to improve efficiency and stability.
• Security protocol: Provide perfect and safe SSH login and login user grading mechanism, provide ARP, STP, DHCP and other protocol protection means, perfect routing protocol encryption algorithm to ensure protocol security.
• Security services: Provide ZESR, ZESS, FRR, GR perfect and rich business function protection to fully ensure network security.

Low-carbon green energy saving and environmental protection

• High-efficiency power supply system minimizes power conversion loss.
