Product Features and highlights

Powerful support for services
The S5700 supports IGMP v1/v2/v3 snooping, IGMP lter, IGMP fast leave, and IGMP proxy. It supports linespeed replication of multicast packets between VLANs, multicast load balancing among member interfaces of a
trunk, and controllable multicast, meeting requirements for IPTV services and other multicast services.
The S5700 provides the Multi-VPN-Instance CE (MCE) function to isolate users in different VLANs on a device,
ensuring data security and reducing costs.
The S5700HI switches are cost-effective case-shaped MPLS switches. They support MPLS and VLL functions and
can be used as high-quality access devices to provide leased line services for enterprises.
Comprehensive reliability mechanisms

Besides STP, RSTP, and MSTP, the S5700 supports enhanced Ethernet reliability technologies such as Smart
Link and RRPP (Rapid Ring Protection Protocol), which implement millisecond-level protection switchover and
ensure network reliability. It also provides Smart Link multi-instance and RRPP multi-instance to implement load
balancing among links, optimizing bandwidth usage.
The S5700 supports enhanced trunk (E-Trunk) that enables a CE to be dual-homed to two PEs (S5700s). E-Trunk
greatly enhances link reliability between devices and implements link aggregation between devices. This improves
reliability of access devices.
The S5700 supports the Smart Ethernet Protection (SEP) protocol, a ring network protocol applied to the link
layer on an Ethernet network. SEP can be used on open ring networks and can be deployed on upper-layer
aggregation devices to provide fast switchover (within 50 ms), ensuring non-stop transmission of services. SEP
features simplicity, high reliability, fast switchover, easy maintenance, and exible topology, facilitating network

planning and management.

The S5700 supports redundant power supplies, and can use an AC power supply and a DC power simultaneously.
Product Brochure
Users can choose a single power supply or use two power supplies to ensure device reliability.
The S5700EI /HI supports VRRP, and can set up VRRP groups with other Layer 3 switches. VRRP provides
redundant routes to ensure stable and reliable communication. Multiple equal-cost routes to an uplink device
can be congured on the S5700 to provide route redundancy. When an active route is unreachable, trafc is
switched to a backup route.
The S5700 supports BFD, which provides millisecond-level fault detection for protocols such as OSPF, IS-IS, VRRP,
and PIM to improve network reliability. Complying with IEEE 802.3ah and 802.1ag, the S5700 supports point-topoint Ethernet fault management and can detect faults in the last mile of an Ethernet link to users.
The S5700HI provide 3.3-millisecond hardware-based Ethernet OAM function and Y.1731, which can quickly
detect and locate faults. By using the Ethernet OAM technology and switchover technologies, the S5700 can
provide millisecond-level protective switchover for networks.
Well-designed QoS policies and security mechanisms

The S5700 implements complex trafc classication based on packet information such as the 5-tuple, IP
preference, ToS, DSCP, IP protocol type, ICMP type, TCP source port, VLAN ID, Ethernet protocol type, and CoS.
ACLs can be applied to inbound or outbound direction on an interface. The S5700 supports a ow-based tworate three-color CAR. Each port supports eight priority queues and multiple queue scheduling algorithms such as
WRR, DRR, SP, WRR+SP, and DRR+SP. All of these ensure the quality of voice, video, and data services.
The S5700 provides multiple security measures to defend against Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, and attacks
against networks or users. DoS attack types include SYN Flood attacks, Land attacks, Smurf attacks, and ICMP
Flood attacks. Attacks to networks refer to STP BPDU/root attacks. Attacks to users include bogus DHCP server
attacks, man-in-the-middle attacks, IP/MAC spoong attacks, DHCP request ood attacks. DoS attacks that
change the CHADDR eld in DHCP packets are also attacks against users.
The S5700 supports DHCP snooping, which generates user binding entries based on MAC addresses, IP
addresses, IP address leases, VLAN IDs, and access interfaces of users. DHCP snooping discards invalid packets
that do not match any binding entries, such as ARP spoong packets and IP spoong packets. This prevents manin-the-middle attacks to campus networks that hackers initiate by using ARP packets. The interface connected to
a DHCP server can be congured as a trusted interface to protect the system against bogus DHCP server attacks.
The S5700 supports strict ARP learning, which prevents ARP spoong attacks that will exhaust ARP entries. It
also provides IP source check to prevent DoS attacks caused by MAC address spoong, IP address spoong, and
MAC/IP spoong.
The S5700 supports centralized MAC address authentication, 802.1x authentication, and NAC. It authenticates
users based on statically or dynamically bound user information such as the user name, IP address, MAC address,
VLAN ID, access interface, and ag indicating whether antivirus software is installed. VLANs, QoS policies, and
ACLs can be applied to users dynamically.
4
The S5700 can limit the number of MAC addresses learned on an interface to prevent attackers from exhausting
MAC address entries by using bogus source MAC addresses. This function minimizes packet ooding that occurs
The S5700 supports automatic conguration, plug-and-play, deployment using a USB ash drive, and batch
remote upgrade. These capabilities simplify device management and maintenance and reduce maintenance
costs. The S5700 supports SNMP v1/v2/v3 and provides exible methods for managing devices. Users can
manage the S5700 using the CLI, Web NMS, Telnet, and HGMP. The NQA function helps users with network
planning and upgrades. In addition, the S5700 supports NTP, SSH v2, HWTACACS+, RMON, log hosts, and portbased trafc statistics.
The S5700 supports GVRPGARP VLAN Registration Protocol, which dynamically distributes, registers, and
propagates VLAN attributes to reduce manual conguration workloads of network administrators and to ensure
correct VLAN conguration. In a complex network topology, GVRP simplies VLAN conguration and reduces
network communication faults caused by incorrect VLAN conguration.
The S5700 supports MUX VLAN. MUX VLAN isolates Layer 2 trafc between interfaces in a VLAN. Interfaces in
a subordinate separate VLAN can communicate with ports in the principal VLAN but cannot communicate with
each other. MUX VLAN is usually used on an enterprise intranet to isolate user interfaces from each other but
allow them to communicate with server interfaces. This function prevents communication between network
devices connected to certain interfaces or interface groups but allows the devices to communicate with the
default gateway.
PoE function
The S5700 PWR can use PoE power supplies with different power levels to provide -48V DC power for powered
devices (PDs) such as IP Phones, WLAN APs, and Bluetooth APs. In its role as power sourcing equipment (PSE),
the S5700 PWR complies with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at (PoE+) and can work with PDs that are incompatible
with 802.3af or 802.3at. Each port provides a maximum of 30 W power, complying with IEEE 802.3at. The PoE+
function increases the maximum power of each port and implements intelligent power management for highpower consumption applications. This facilitates the use of PDs. PoE ports can work in power-saving mode. The
S5700 PWR provides improved PoE solutions. Users can congure whether and when a PoE port supplies power.
High scalability
The S5700 supports intelligent stacking (iStack). Multiple S5700s can be connected with stack cables to set up a
stack, which functions as a virtual switch. A stack consists of a master switch, a backup switch, and several slave
switches. The backup switch takes over services when the master switch fails, reducing service interruption time.
Stacks support intelligent upgrade so that users do not need to change the software version of a switch when
adding it to a stack. The iStack function allows users to connect multiple switches with stack cables to expand
system capacity. These switches can be managed using a single IP address, which greatly reduces the costs of
system expansion, operation, and maintenance. Compared with traditional networking technologies, iStack has
advantages in scalability, reliability, and system architecture.

Various IPv6 features

The S5700 supports IPv4/IPv6 dual stack and can migrate from an IPv4 network to an IPv6 network. S5700
Product Brochure
hardware supports IPv4/IPv6 dual stack, IPv6 over IPv4 tunnels (including manual tunnels, 6to4 tunnels, and
ISATAP tunnels), and Layer 3 line-speed forwarding. The S5700 can be deployed on IPv4 networks, IPv6
networks, or networks that run both IPv4 and IPv6. This makes networking exible and enables a network to
migrate from IPv4 to IPv6.
