Delivers industry leading density
At 96 ports, the Nuage Networks 7850 VSG provides the industry’s highest 10GE port density in a 1RU gateway. Support includes 1GE (via SFP), 10GE (SFP+) and 40GE (QSFP+).
Supports both virtualized and non-virtualized datacenter environments
Support for both fully virtualized and non-virtualized compute platforms is critical for today’s data centers. Although the trend is moving towards fully virtualized environments, there is still a high ratio of legacy applications residing on physical servers. The 7850 VSG supports a wire-speed hardware gateway function to bridge the non-virtualized seamlessly into the virtual compute environment. Gateway functionality is delivered by a robust and scalable Virtual Tunnel End Point (VTEP) implementation in hardware that supports VLAN interconnection to VXLAN from the non-virtualized servers for distribution via Layer 2 or Layer 3 to the virtual environment.
Enables operational efficiency
The 7850 VSG supports full configuration and reporting using SNMPv3 to the Alcatel-Lucent 5620 Service Aware Manager (SAM) or third-party network management systems. Local configuration is provided via a console with out-of-band management provided over a dedicated Ethernet port.
Offers network function flexibility
Network function flexibility is provided with the option to enable the Virtualized Services Controller (VSC) on the 7850 VSG. This provides the flexibility to run SDN controller functions directly at the top of rack or end of row.
The VSC supports OpenFlow™and MP-BGP for network endpoint configuration within the data center and seamlessly extends out to the wide area network to enable cloud services.
