3. Product Features #

  • Unblocking Data Center Network Construction: The switches are line-speed products tailored for the trends of east-west traffic in data centers, suitable for high-traffic next-generation data centers. They meet the design requirements of the Spine-Leaf architecture. The RG-S6520 series can provide up to 64 ports of 100G, with all ports capable of line-speed forwarding.
  • Data Center Virtualization Features: Supports VSU 2.0 (Virtual Switch Unit) virtualization technology, virtualizing multiple physical devices into one logical device for unified management, reducing network nodes, and increasing reliability. It enables fast link failover in 50-200ms to ensure uninterrupted transmission of critical services. Cross-device link aggregation is supported for dual-active uplink connections.
  • RDMA Lossless Ethernet: Achieves low-latency forwarding based on RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access), optimizing business forwarding performance and significantly lowering the operational cost per bit across the network, enhancing product competitiveness.
  • Hardware-Based Traffic Visualization: Utilizes the chip’s hardware capabilities for end-to-end traffic visualization in complex multi-path, multi-node networks, improving monitoring of forwarding paths and latency, and enhancing fault localization efficiency.
  • Telecom-Level Reliability Protection: The RG-S6520 series supports power redundancy with built-in redundant power modules and modular fan components, allowing hot-swappable power and fan modules without disrupting normal operation. It also supports power and fan fault detection and alarms, automatically adjusting fan speed based on temperature changes, ensuring better adaptation to data center environments. It features multiple reliability protections at both device and link levels, including overcurrent, overvoltage, and overheating protections.
  • Dual-Stack Protocol Support for IPv4/IPv6: The RG-S6520 series hardware supports IPv4/IPv6 dual protocol stack multi-layer line-speed switching, distinguishing and processing IPv4 and IPv6 packets. It supports various tunneling technologies (manual, automatic, and ISATAP tunnels), offering flexible communication solutions for IPv6 networks based on network requirements.
  • Flexible and Comprehensive Security Policies: The RG-S6520 series incorporates various mechanisms to effectively prevent and control virus spread and hacker attacks, such as DoS attack prevention, IP scanning prevention, and multiple hardware ACL policies. It supports hardware-based IPv6 ACLs for access control over IPv6 users even within IPv4 networks.
  • Comprehensive Management: Supports multiple management interfaces, including Console, MGMT port, USB port, and SNMP v1/v2c/v3, facilitating convenient device management. It supports SSH2.0, SSL, and encrypted management for enhanced security.
