The Juniper Networks QFX5210-64C-AFI2 is a high-performance network switch designed for reliable and efficient networking. It features 64 ports and a back-to-front airflow design. With AC power source and a compact size, it is suitable for various networking environments. This network switch offers advanced features and supports a variety of network connectivity options.
Features:
- IP Fabric: For customers looking to build scale-out data centers, an L3 spine-and-leaf Clos fabric is ideal due to its predictable, nonblocking performance and scale characteristics. For example, a two-tier fabric built with the QFX5210 Switch as leafs and QFX10000 Switches as the spine can scale to support up to 18,432 40GbE ports, or 36,864 25GbE or 10GbE server ports in a single fabric.
- Overlays: Customers can deploy overlay networks to provide L2 adjacencies for applications over L3 fabrics. The overlay networks use VXLAN in the data plane and EVPN to program the overlays. The overlays can operate without a controller or can be orchestrated with a fabric management orchestrator to provide L2/L3 overlay virtual networking and security for bare-metal servers and virtual workloads. QFX5210 switches can also integrate with VMware NSX.
- MC-LAG: The QFX5210 supports the MC-LAG protocol between two switches, eliminating Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) in traditional L2 networks when deployed in the aggregation layer. MC-LAG’s active/active operation ensures complete bandwidth utilization between the network’s access and aggregation layers, while the dual control plane technology ensures the highest availability for applications.
- Data Center Fabric Management: Apstra Data Center Director (formerly Juniper® Apstra) provides operators with the power of intent-based network design to help ensure changes required to enable data center services can be delivered rapidly, accurately, and consistently. Operators can further benefit from the built-in assurance and analytics capabilities to resolve Day 2 operations issues quickly.
