Huawei S5700-LI Series Simplified GbE Switches Feature Validation and Performance Evaluation

Abstract

Huawei S5700-LI series simplified gigabit switches are Huawei self-
developed next-generation energy-saving gigabit Ethernet switches
that provide flexible GbE access ports and 10GbE uplink ports. The S5700-LI switches are based on the new generation of high performance hardware and the unified Huawei VRP (Versatile
Routing Platform) software platform, supporting intelligent stack
(iStack) clustering, power saving features, easy operation, and zero
touch provisioning. The S5700-LI switch can work as an access or aggregation switch in a campus network, or to provide Gigabit
access in an Internet data center.

Tolly engineers verified Huawei’s S5700-LI series switches in multiple areas including line-rate forwarding capability, IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols, iStack, Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) power saving, Easy- operation and Zero Touch Provisioning.
