Description
The H3C S5170-EI series is a high-performance, high-port density, and high-security Ethernet switch that supports IPv4/IPV6 dual-stack management and forwarding. It is designed for use in the access and aggregation layers of enterprises and campuses and supports features such as static routing, RIP, and OSPF. The switch also supports SmartMC, a centralized management system for network devices, and H3C Intelligent Resilient Framework 2 (IRF2), which virtualizes multiple switches into one virtual switch for scalability, high availability, and redundancy. The switch also offers comprehensive security control policies through Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD).

H3C S5170-EI Series Intelligent Gigabit Access Switches
The H3C S5170-EI switch adopts the industry-leading ASIC technology to develop a new generation of high-performance, high-port density, high-security and easy-to-install intelligent network-managed Gigabit Ethernet switches that support IPv4/IPV6 dual-stack management and forwarding. It supports static routing protocols and routing protocols such as RIP and OSPF and supports rich management and security features.
H3C S5170-EI products are mainly positioned at the access layer and aggregation layer of enterprises and campuses, meet high-density Gigabit access, fixed 10 Gigabit uplink ports, support PoE+, and build high-performance end-to-end IP networks together with other H3C products solution.
Features:
SmartMC (Smart Management Center)
As the network scale increases, a large number of access devices are required at the network edge, which makes the management of these devices very cumbersome. The main purpose of SmartMC is to solve the problem of centralized management of a large number of scattered network devices. It is designed to solve the switch-based operation and maintenance tasks of small enterprises. SmartMC provides unified operation, maintenance, and management of the network by built-in graphical operation platform.
SmartMC simplifies the operation, maintenance, and management of Small and Medium-sized campuses:
Smart management:includes device role selection, FTP server configuration, global configuration, and network management port configuration, etc.
Intelligent operation and maintenance:include group management, equipment, or group upgrade backup, monitoring and equipment failure replacement, etc.
Visualization:includes networking topology visualization and management, device list display, device ports display, etc.
Smart business:includes user management, etc. After network access users are created and successfully activated, these users can access the SmartMC network through the one-key-armed port.
The H3C S5170-EI series switches can be used as the management device of SmartMC. You can log in to the SmartMC network through the S5170-EI to manage the entire network in a unified manner.
H3C Intelligent Resilient Framework 2 (IRF2 )
H3C Intelligent Resilient Framework 2 (IRF 2) virtualizes multiple S5170-EI switches into one virtual switch and provides the following benefits:
Scalability: IRF 2 allows you to add devices to the IRF 2 system easily. It provides a single point of management, enables switch plug-and-play, and supports software auto-update for software synchronization from the master to the new member devices. It brings business agility with lower total cost of ownership by allowing new switches to be added to the fabric without network topology change as business grows.
High availability:The H3C proprietary routing hot backup technology ensures redundancy and backup of all information on the control and data planes and non-stop Layer 3 data forwarding in an IRF 2 fabric. It also eliminates single point of failure and ensures service continuity.
Redundancy and load balancing: The distributed link aggregation technology supports load sharing and mutual backup among multiple uplinks, which enhances the network redundancy and improves link resources usage.
Flexibility and resiliency: The switch use standard GE ports instead of specialized ports for IRF links between IRF member devices. This allows customers to assign bandwidth as needed between uplink, downlink, and IRF system connections. In addition, an S5170-EI IRF fabric can span a rack, multiple racks, or multiple campuses.
Comprehensive Security Control Policies
Endpoint Admission Defense (EAD), in conjunction with the backend system, integrates endpoint security (including anti-virus and patching) and network security (including network access control and access right control) into an interactive security system.
