Summit X450a series

Product catalog summary

Overview: The Summit X450a series by Extreme Networks is a scalable aggregation switch designed for high-performance network environments. It features the modular ExtremeXOS operating system, offering voice-class availability, advanced deployment features, and comprehensive security measures.

Voice-Class Availability: The series supports high network availability with features like Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching (EAPS) for rapid recovery, SummitStack for high-speed stacking, and software-enhanced availability to maintain connectivity during infrastructure failures.

Advanced Features for Versatile Deployment: The switch provides a high bandwidth, non-blocking architecture suitable for demanding edge applications. It supports advanced routing protocols such as OSPF and BGP, and offers exceptional Quality of Service (QoS) for triple play services in Carrier Ethernet networks. It is ideal for data center top-of-rack deployments and small network cores.

Comprehensive Security: Security features include user authentication, host integrity enforcement, and identity management. The switch supports dynamic security profiles, threat detection with the CLEAR-Flow Security Rules Engine, and protection against Denial of Service (DoS) attacks and man-in-the-middle threats.

High Availability Network Protocols: The series supports protocols like EAPS for network resiliency, Spanning Tree Protocols for Layer 2 resiliency, and Multi-Switch Link Aggregation (M-LAG) for improved network resiliency and load balancing.

Advanced Routing Capabilities: The switch supports a range of routing protocols for efficient small network core deployments, including static, RIP, and Edge-OSPF protocols. It also offers IPv6 support and advanced multicast routing capabilities.

Security Management: The Summit X450a series implements robust security measures, including Network Login options, dynamic security profiles, and MAC security to protect against unauthorized access and potential network threats.

Port Security and MAC Address Management: The switch can lock down a port to a specific MAC address and limit the number of MAC addresses on a port, useful for dedicating ports to specific devices and preventing port abuse.

IP Security: The ExtremeXOS IP security framework protects against spoofing and man-in-the-middle attacks, maintaining a trusted database of MAC/IP/port bindings.

Identity Manager: This feature allows network managers to track users accessing the network, capturing user identity through various authentication methods and creating role-based profiles for network access.

Host Integrity: Host integrity checking ensures that infected or non-compliant machines are kept off the network.

Threat Detection and Response: The CLEAR-Flow Security Rules Engine provides threat detection and mitigation, while sFlow technology samples application-level traffic flows. Port mirroring is supported for threat detection and prevention.

Line-Rate ACLs: The series supports up to 2,048 centralized ACLs per 24-port block for traffic filtering and classification.

Denial of Service Protection: The switch effectively handles DoS attacks by assembling ACLs to stop excessive packets from reaching the CPU.

Network Management: The Summit X450a supports comprehensive network management through CLI, SNMP, and a web interface.

Target Applications: Suitable for small network core switches, traditional aggregation layers, and carrier Ethernet services.

Technical Specifications: Includes supported protocols, management and traffic analysis protocols, security measures, and IPv4/IPv6 services.
