HPE Aruba Networking Fabric Composer, a smart, software-defined orchestration solution, simplifies operations, increases network speed, and enhances overall infrastructure provisioning.
• Unparalleled visibility and analytics
Get real-time monitoring and troubleshooting with HPE Aruba Networking Network Analytics Engine (NAE). Embedded in every HPE Aruba Networking CX switch, NAE provides the necessary compute and storage to analyze any event that could impact network health. Offering intelligent pre-processing of data, it can turn raw telemetry into actionable insights.
• No downtime, even during upgrades
HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) takes a new and innovative approach to solving high availability challenges by combining the best aspects of existing HA technologies, such as multi-chassis link aggregation (MC-LAG) and equal-cost, multi-path (ECMP) routing. Providing a distributed and redundant architecture, it’s highly available, with minimal-to-zero traffic loss, even during software upgrades.
• High-speed, fully distributed architecture
High-performance 19.2Tbps switching (1.2Tbps/slot) capacity with up to 7.142Bpps for throughput.
• Future proof your Enterprise network infrastructure
Advanced Layer 2/3 feature set includes BGP, EVPN, OSPF, VRF, and IPv6. Switching and routing is performed in the I/O modules, meeting the demands of bandwidth-intensive applications today and in the future.
• Industry-leading line rate performance
Provides carrier-class high availability with industry-leading line rate performance. 10GbE/25GbE/40GbE/100GbE connectivity in a compact 8-slot chassis.
