Product Overview
MT-LINK MT-SG5800 Series is a new generation of full- 10GE TOR switches, oriented for high-performance computing, data center and high-end campuses. The MT-SG5800 adopts our most advanced hardware architecturedesigns.
MT-SG5800 Series (1U height) supports up to 2.56Tbps switching capacity and 48 10GE ports + 2 40GE ports + 4 100Gports or 72 10GE ports.
Developed on the basis of BDROS software platform MT-LINK with its own independent intellectual property rights, MT-SG5800 Series provides highperformance L2/L3/L4 wire speed switching capacity by integrating services such as IPv6, VPN, network security, flow analysis, virtualization, with high reliable techniques including continuous forwarding, graceful restarting and loop network protection, all which works efficiency withing the MT-SG5800 Series fabric for guaranteed maximum runtime. MT-SG5800 Series supports the “GreenTouch” architecture and “Smart@CHIP”. Its power consumptionis lower than 200W. MT-SG5800 series has 2 models: MT-SG5828 and MT-SG5864.
Carrier-Level Aggregation Layer-3 Ethernet Switch Innovative BVSS(MT-LINKVirtualSwitchSystem):
virtualize multiple physical devices into one. The performance, reliability and management capabilities of the virtual system combine to outperform that of individual physical devices;
Improved Performance:
BVSS makes full use of each link in the physical device cluster, which avoids STP blocking on links and protects the original link to the maximum;
High Reliability:
Based on the advanced distribution mechanism and efficient croos-physical link aggregation function, the logic control plane, service control plane and service data plane are separated. Thus, the device can support continuous layer3 routing forwarding, avoiding service interruption as a result of a single point of failure;
Easy Management:
BVSS realizes single IP management, greatly improving the networking efficiency and lowering operating costs.
Product Characteristics
Rich Data Center Services BVSS (MT-LINK Virtual SwitchSystem) MT-SG5800 Series supports BVSS, which can virtualize multiple physical devices into a single logical element. The virtualized system is superior to the independent physical device in performance, reliability, flexibility and management.
Doubled Performance: The virtualized system makes the best use of each link in the device and avoids blocking of STP to the links.
High-reliability: Based on the advanced distributed processing technique and the efficient function of cross-physical device link aggregation, , the MT-SG5800 Series provides non-stop layer-3 routing forwarding and avoids single points offailure.
Flexibility: The virtual cluster function of the MT-SG5800 allows the distance of a cluster system to expand over up to 80KM, breaking the geographic restrictions of traditional cluster techniques.
Easy Management: The whole virtual system realizes single IP unified management and simplifies the management of network device and networktopology.
Security+
Equipment-level security: The advanced hardware infrastructure design realizes the level-based packet schedule and packet protection, prevents DoS-/TCP- related SYN Flood, UDP Flood, Broadcast Storm or large traffic attacks, and supports levelbased command line protection, endowing different levels of users with different management permissions.
Perfect security authentication mechanisms: IEEE 802.1x, Radius and BDTacacs+.
MT-SG5800 series supports storm/multicast/unicast limits, ensuring normal running conditions of the equipment when deployed in harsh networkconditions.
MT-SG5800 series supports perfect ring detection mechanisms, ensuringlong-term networkperformancestability.
MT-SG5800 series supports port isolation within the same VLAN, DHCP-Snooping, and IP + MAC + Port binding.
Versatile IPv6 Solution
MT-SG5800 Series supports the IPv6 protocol suite, IPv6 neighbor discovery, ICMPv6, path MTU discovery, DHCPv6, etc.
MT-SG5800 Series supports Ping, Traceroute, Telnet, SSH, ACL based on IPv6;
MT-SG5800 Series supports MLD, MLD Snooping, IPv6 static routing, RIPng, OSPFv3 and BGP4+, etc.; Supports IPv6 tunnel: manual tunnel, automatic tunnel, GRE tunnel, 6to4 tunnel, ISATAP;
MT-SG5800 Series supports IPv4 transiting to IPv6: IPv6 manual tunnel, automatic tunnel, 6 to 4 tunnel, ISATAP tunnel.
Data Center Level High-reliability
MT-SG5800 Series adopts HPS (Hitless Protection System). The key components of the MT-SG5800 Series such as the power system and the fan system supports redundancy in design. All system modules support hot-swap and seamless switching without need of manual intervention.
MT-SG5800 Series supports redundancy protection mechanisms such as STP/RSTP/MSTP protocol, VRRP protocol, ring network protection, dual uplink active/standby link protection and LACP link aggregation.
MT-SG5800 Series supports ISSU (In-Service Software Upgrade), guaranteeing non-stop forwarding of service data while the system is upgrading.
MT-SG5800 Series supports BFD and realizes fault detection and service recovery in seconds through linking with layer-2 or layer-3 protocol.
MT-SG5800 Series has perfect Ethernet OAM, 802.3ah, 802.1ag and ITU-Y.1731 which can monitor the network operating state in real time and rapidly detect and locate
the malfunction. High Reliability (99.999%): The MTTR of the MT-SG5800 Series is 50ms, satisfying the requirement for reliable delivery of carrier-level service.
