3. Core Technologies

The 5412R zl2 switch leverages ProVision ASIC technology, providing a 2 Tbps crossbar switching fabric with low latency. It supports a wide range of protocols including OSPF, BGP, IPv6, and VXLAN. Key technologies include:

• Virtual Switching Framework (VSF)
• Dynamic Segmentation
• Quality of Service (QoS) with advanced traffic prioritization
• IEEE 802.3at PoE+ and Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)

4. Working Principle

The switch operates by processing and forwarding data packets based on Layer 2 and Layer 3 information. It uses hardware-based forwarding engines to ensure high throughput and low latency. The management module handles control plane functions, while the interface modules manage data plane operations. VSF stacking allows multiple physical switches to operate as a single logical device, simplifying management and enhancing redundancy.
