Product Features
Intelligent Stacking Technology
The NSS3530 series switch is equipped with Maipu VST stacking function. VST Virtual Switching Technology) stacking combines multiple switches to form a logical virtual switch via the 10G SFP+ ports, improving device and link reliability, network expansion, and simplifying configuration and management.
The NSS3530 series switch also support M-LAG, aggregating links of multiple switches to ensure link backup and uninterrupted services during upgrade.
Software Defined Network
The NSS3530 series switch is capable of being managed by Maipu’s BD-Campus controller, an integrated SDN platform designed for campus networks. The utilization of software-defined network technologies in this platform simplifies the deployment, management, and security of campus networks, while also enabling network teams to complete the majority of their work directly on the BD-Campus controller platform. When compared with traditional methods, implementing a BD-Campus solution can significantly reduce network deployment times, simplify network maintenance, improve troubleshooting efficiency, and ultimately lead to overall cost savings for customers.
Advanced MPLS Capabilities
The NSS3530 series switch delivers advanced MPLS capabilities, enhancing your network infrastructure with powerful features. These include seamless MPLS VPN deployment for secure and efficient data transmission, MPLS Traffic Engineering for optimized traffic routing, and MPLS Quality of Service (QoS) support for prioritizing critical applications.
Zero Touch Provisioning
The NSS3530 series switch features advanced Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) capabilities, streamlining the deployment process for network administrators. With ZTP, the switch can automatically discover and load necessary version files from a file server via a DHCP server or a USB flash disk, eliminating the need for manual intervention during initial setup. This automation reduces configuration errors, accelerates the deployment process, and enhances overall network efficiency, making the NSS3530 series switch an ideal choice for scalable and dynamic network environments.
High Availability
The NSS3530 series switch offers advanced redundancy and reliability features, catering to diverse networking requirements. In addition to supporting traditional spanning tree protocols such as STP, RSTP, and MSTP, the switch also complies with the ITU-T G.8032 international standard. This Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) protocol enables rapid 50ms failover within Ethernet ring network topologies, ensuring seamless connectivity and minimal downtime.
Furthermore, the NSS3530 series switch incorporates the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), facilitating uplink backup capabilities. By connecting to multiple aggregation switches via multiple links, the switch significantly enhances access device reliability, promoting network stability and resilience.
Perfect Security Policy
The NSS3530 series switch offers a comprehensive suite of security features, including user authentication, port security, ACLs, loopback detection, and 802.1X authentication. It also incorporates IP Source Guard, DHCP/ND Snooping, Host Guard, Dynamic ARP Inspection, and PPPoE+ security mechanisms. These robust security functions ensure user access and network protection.
Additionally, the switch supports MAC+IP+VLAN binding, 802.1X authentication, and countermeasures against network storm, DOS/DDOS, ARP, and protocol packet attacks. This makes the NSS3530 series ideal for large-scale, multi-service, and complex-traffic networks.
Advanced QoS
The NSS3530 series switch offers sophisticated QoS capabilities for optimal network performance. Supporting eight queues per port and advanced scheduling algorithms such as SP, RR, WRR, and WDRR, the switch effectively manages traffic prioritization and resource allocation.
The switch accommodates diverse priority mapping techniques, including 802.1p, CoS, and DSCP, enabling fine-grained control over traffic classification and prioritization. With granular port traffic rate limiting and time-based controls, network administrators can regulate bandwidth usage as needed.
To optimize network performance and minimize congestion, the NSS3530 series switch employs advanced congestion management techniques, such as Tail Drop and RED packet loss algorithms. These mechanisms help maintain seamless network operation while ensuring efficient delivery of critical data.
IPv4&IPv6 Dual-stack Ability
The NSS3530 series switch is built on an IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack platform, delivering hardware-based, wire-speed forwarding for both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic. The switch supports IPv4/IPv6 Layer 3 routing protocols, including RIPng, OSPFv3, BGP4+, and IS-IS for IPv6. These IPv6 capabilities enable seamless deployment on pure IPv4, pure IPv6, or dual-stack networks, facilitating a smooth transition from IPv4 to IPv6 infrastructure.
Rich Network Management
The NSS3530 series switch offers a comprehensive set of management options. These options encompass network management protocols like SNMP and TR-069, configuration and control options like Netconf/Yang and CLI, monitoring and diagnostic tools such as RMON and SYSLOG. These versatile features enable network administrators to effectively manage, monitor, and maintain optimal network performance locally
