Enterprise SONiC Distribution
Management Switches in Data Center Architecture with Enterprise SONiC Distribution
Edgecore EPS series can also be as the management switch in the data center architecture to manage all the switch functions
with Enterprise SONiC operating system. Together with Enterprise SONiC Distribution, the solution provides unified control over all
switches, simplifying the deployment, management, and monitoring of networks.
Enterprise SONiC Distribution provides the great control and flexibility for network management with its Layer 2,
Layer 3, Management & Monitoring, QoS, and Security features with flexibility of network management.
Enterprise SONiC Distribution Primary Use Cases in Data Center Fabric Solutions
L3 Fabric underlay – using BGP. In a multi-tier CLOS-based architecture, Enterprise SONiC Distribution is able to achieve impressive
levels of scale – growing with you as your data center network requirements grow.
Multi-tenancy Deployments - Leveraging VxLAN and eVPN. Using these technologies, enterprises can benefit from the scalable L3
fabric, while providing the data isolation of L2 networks for multiple tenants within the data-center. With features such as MC-LAG,
Enterprise SONiC can deliver an impressive level of redundancy and resiliency into the network.
Rack Management Switching – The management in a rack becomes easier with Enterprise SONiC. For example, auto-configuring with
ZTP, lossless forwarding with PFC and ECN, redundant link with MC-LAG, connecting servers with different access port speeds and
media such as fiber, copper, or direct access cable.
Edgecore helps the enterprises to enable the rapid network deployment and powerful centralized management, as well as
maximizing labor efficiency.
