Data Center
The S6700 switches can be deployed at the access layer to build a virtualized, highly reliable, non-blocking, and energy-conservative data center network.
In a data center network shown in Figure 2-1, CE16800 switches are deployed as core switches, and S6700 switches are deployed as access switches to provide 10 Gbit/s access. To ensure high reliability, the S6700 switches set up stacks. When a stack member switch fails, the other switch in the stack takes over services. On the network, Eth-Trunk is used to achieve link-level reliability, and VXLAN is used to construct a non-blocking large Layer 2 network without the need to configure STP, VRRP, and other reliability protocols. This reduces the possibility of faults.
