Hardware and Software Configurations
Different combinations of the eSight Platform and components have different hardware and software requirements.
Management scale (Number of equivalent NEs) = Number of eSight network management licenses (devices) x 1 + Number of eSight WLAN management licenses (APs) x 1 + Number of eSight PON management licenses (ONUs) x 1 + Number of eSight UC/IPT/CC/ICP management licenses (IP phones)/20 + Number of eSight VC/TP management licenses (terminals)/20 + Number of eSight video surveillance management licenses (cameras)/25 + Number of eSight eLTE management licenses (devices)/3 + Number of eSight eLTE management licenses (modules)/10 + Number of eSight storage management licenses (devices) x 50 + Number of eSight server management licenses (devices) x 2 + Number of eSight microwave management licenses (devices)/2 + Number of eSight virtualization management licenses (CPUs) x 1
The equivalent NE conversion formulas for related devices are as follows:
- Number of eSight network management licenses (devices) = Number of switches + Number of routers + Number of ACs + Number of fat APs + Number of firewalls + Number of VSs on data center switches
- Number of eSight WLAN management licenses (APs) = Number of fat APs + Number of fit APs + Number of central APs + Number of remote access units (RUs)
- Number of eSight PON management licenses (ONUs) = Number of ONUs (ONTs or MxUs)
- Number of eSight UC/IPT/CC/ICP management licenses (IP phones) = Number of IP phones
- Number of eSight VC/TP management licenses (endpoints) = Number of TE10 devices + Number of TE20 devices + Number of TEX0 devices + Number of DP300 devices + Number of TE Desktop devices + Number of CloudLink soft clients + SoftConsole clients
- Number of eSight video surveillance management licenses (cameras) = Number of one-channel cameras
- Number of eSight eLTE management licenses (devices) = Number of eLTE service engines x 100 + Number of eLTE eNodeBs x 10 + Number of industry terminals x 1
- Number of eSight eLTE management licenses (modules) = Number of eLTE-IoT modules
- Number of eSight server management licenses (devices) = Number of blade server chassises x 10 + Number of rack servers + Number of high-density server nodes + Number of KunLun servers
- Number of eSight storage management licenses (devices) = Number of enterprise storage devices + Number of HUAWEI Cloud storage devices
- Number of eSight virtualization management licenses (CPUs) = Number of physical CPUs
In the upgrade scenario, eSight is compatible with the following operating systems and databases:
- Novell SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.0 SP3, Novell SuSE LINUX Enterprise Server 12.0 SP2
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6/7.3
- Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit) - Standard Edition, Windows Server 2012 R2 (64-bit) - Standard Edition, Windows Server 2016 (64-bit) - Standard Edition
- Microsoft SQL Server 2008 - Standard Edition, Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - Standard Edition, Microsoft SQL Server 2016 - Standard Edition
eSight can still run on these operating systems and databases. However, preinstallation delivery is not supported. To use these operating systems and databases, customers need to purchase them by themselves.
After the operating systems and databases reach the EOS time, eSight will continue to provide solutions for problems caused by eSight until the eSight EOS time arrives. Handling of problems related to the operating systems and databases depends on the response of the suppliers' technical support personnel.
