Features
Key capabilities of the 7720-32C
Universal Hardware Platform
The 7720 Series comes with a dual-persona capability allowing user choice of the switch operating system (OS). Either the Switch Engine (EXOS) or Fabric Engine (VOSS) persona can be enabled on 7720 hardware models. The desired persona can be selected at start-up or changed at a later stage. Once selected, the 7720 assumes the features/capabilities of the selected OS.
Ethernet Fabric Services
The 7720 supports a variety of Ethernet Fabric services, including Extreme's Fabric Connect when running Fabric Engine (VOSS) and Extreme's IP Fabric when running Switch Engine (EXOS). It also supports Fabric Attach for automated connection to either Layer 2 or Layer 3 fabric services. Extreme's Fabric Connect and IP Fabric on the 7720 enable the creation of virtualized networks that automate network operations, simplify network provisioning, and enhance security, all while reducing the strain on network and IT personnel.
High-Performance Stacking
Two of the 7720's QSFP28 uplink ports can be used for high-speed 400Gb stacking when running Switch Engine (EXOS). Up to eight systems can be stacked using qualified direct attach cables and/or optical transceivers. (Note: Stacking is not supported on the 7520-48YE -8CE model or when running Fabric Engine (VOSS)).
Management
The 7720 can be managed by ExtremeCloud IQ and ExtremeCloud IQ-Site Engine for comprehensive unified management with a consolidated view of users, devices and applications across wired and wireless networks.
