Key Features and Benefits

• SN3800M switches are ideal for modern server and storage networks, supporting up to 64 ports at 100GbE delivering predictable performance and zero packet loss at line-rate across each port and packet size.
• SN3800M provides ultra-low cut-through latency port-to-port. This is an advantageous for flash storage which moved the latency bottleneck from storage media to the network, as well as for the bursty nature of today's software-defined and cloud-driven data center traffic flows.
• It provides high port density in a 2U rack unit, allowing for higher capacity and efficiency, simplifying scale-out environments and saving on total cost of ownership. Unique breakout cables fan out individual switch ports to multiple device ports.
• Provides wire-rate performance with zero packet loss across all frame sizes, avoiding any negative impact on applications that could occur with frame loss as unexpected packet loss is unacceptable in modern data centers, especially within a storage network.
• Capable of forwarding 100% capacity wire rate performance with zero packet loss across all ports concurrently at 100GbE speeds while transferring data across both Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks.
• Designed to use less electric power than competing switches, it provides one of the industry's lowest power draws, producing less heat than competing products, and allowing reduced OPEX cost.
• Provides enough switching bandwidth to transport all ports at 100GB/s bandwidth concurrently. This allows the switches to avoid head-of-line blocking which can reduce a switches overall performance and throughput.

User Interfaces: Command Line & Web Interface

• Industry-standard command line interface (CLI). The CLI is accessed through SSH or Telnet sessions, or directly via the console serial port on the power side panel.
• The CLI can be in one of several modes, and each mode makes available a certain group (or level) of commands for execution.
• Web interface - WebUI that accepts inputs and provides outputs by generating webpages which can be viewed by the user using a web browser for configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting.
• The inventory in the switch system can be accessed through a SNMP MIB browser. These devices are indexed (entPhysicalIndex) using three levels: Module layer, Device layer & Sensor layer.

System Management

Management Interface

Management interfaces are used in order to provide access to switch management user interfaces (e.g. CLI, WebUI). HPE Switch Management supports out-of-band (OOB) dedicated interfaces (e.g. mgmt0, mgmt1) and in-band dedicated interfaces. In addition, HPE M-Series Switches feature a standard 115200 baud rate RJ45 serial port that provides access to the CLI.

NTP, Clock & Time Zones

Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between com­puter systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. NTP is intended to synchro­nize all participating computers to within a few milliseconds of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and is designed to mitigate the effects of variable network latency.

PTP

IEEE Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems (standard number 1588) defines the means to achieve time synchronization in the orders of sub microseconds.

Saving, Loading & restore to factory defaults of the Configuration Files

HPE Smart Fabric Orchestrator

The HPE Smart Fabric Orchestrator validates the integrity, interoperability and compliance of HPE storage, servers and network fabric infrastructures before or during deployment, eliminating human errors during any configurations update or adding new devices. The pre-upgrade check option verifies and reports what components in your SAN need an update to meet the specified version requirement, further assisting in keeping the SAN and fabric infrastructure in ideal health by making informed decisions with better supportability and predictability. The Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge (SPOCK) checks are done against the HPE SPOCK database file currently installed in the Smart Fabric Orchestrator. Checks are easy, with simple mouse-hover color indicators for the components.

Logging

Logging of system events in several severity level over a configurable period of time.

End-to-end Fabric management with NEO®

NEO™ management platform extends management throughout the entire fabric, with end-to-end capabilities for both switches and NICs. Use NEO to enable even greater visibility into the complete data transport path, from the server, through the network fabric and to the server/client.

Debugging

Support save sysdmp file collects configuration, status, counters, log files, What-Just-Happened logs, and WireShark traces for Ethernet modules to enable timely review of problems and facilitate service support.  There are 31 per port packet counters and an additional 22 discard packet classification counters to help you identify why there are packet processing problems, should they occur

What Just Happened (WJH)

As an innovative network telemetry technology, 'What Just Happened' (WJH) monitors and alerts on data plane anomalies to reduce system downtime. With built-in capabilities to inspect packets across all ports at line-rate, multi-terabit speeds, WJH avoids time-consuming data collection and manual searches for network problems.  In addition, a streaming WJH telemetry application, supported by NEO™ and other management applications, can be installed as a Docker container.

Link Diagnostic Per Port

Enables an insight into the physical layer components - see information such as a cable status (plugged/unplugged), speed mismatch, auto-negotiation failures, signal quality failures, link training failures, forward error code mismatch, etc.

Signal Degradation Monitoring

A system can monitor the bit error rate (BER) in order to ensure a quality of the link and take an automatic action to disable offending ports.

Telemetry

Sampling (histograms) - a network administrator can enable a sampling of the port buf¬fer occupancy, record occupancy changes over time, and provide information for differ¬ent levels of buffer occupancy, and amount of time the buffer has been occupied during the observation period.

Thresholds - thresholds may be enabled per port to record the network time when port buffer occupancy crosses the defined threshold and when buffer occupancy drops below it.

Software Components, Standard, Base Models

Ethernet Switching

Interface Isolation

Group interfaces in sets where traffic from each port is isolated from other interfaces in the group.

Link Aggregation Group (LAG)

Several same speed links are combined into a single logical entity with the accumulated bandwidth of the originating ports

MLAG

Extending the implementation of the LAG to more than a single chassis provides another level of redundancy that extends from the link level to the node level.  Up to two switches are supported in an MLAG configuration

VLANs

L2 segment of the network which defines a broad­cast domain and is identified by a tag added to all Ethernet frames running within the domain

Voice VLAN

Provide QoS to voice and data traffic in a scenario where a terminal is connected to an IP phone which is in turn connected to the port on the switch

QinQ

Segregate the traffic of different custom­ers in their infrastructure, while still giving the customer a full range of VLANs for their internal use by adding a second 802.1Q VLAN tag to an already tagged frame

Spanning Tree

Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) provides for rapid recovery of connectiv­ity following the failure of a bridge/bridge port or a LAN.   The following are supported: BPDU Filter, BPDU Guard, Loop Guard, Root Guard, MSTP and RPVST

Virtual routing and forwarding functions (VRFs)

Virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) is a technology included in IP (Internet Protocol) network routers that allows multiple instances of a routing table to exist in a router and work simultaneously. This increases functionality by allowing network paths to be segmented without using multiple devices. Because traffic is automatically segregated, VRF also increases network security.  Currently, Onyx™ supports 64 VRF instances

OpenFlow - Support for OpenFlow 1.3

OpenFlow is a net­work protocol that facilitates direct communication between network systems via Ethernet. Soft­ware Defined Networks (SDN) allows a centralist management of network equipment. OpenFlow allows the SDN controller to manage SDN equipment. The OpenFlow protocol allows communication between the OpenFlow controller and OpenFlow agent.

VXLAN

VXLAN (Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network) addresses the requirements of the L2 and L3 data center network infrastructure in the presence of virtual networks in a multi-tenant environment. It runs over the existing networking infrastructure and provides a means to "stretch" a L2 broadcast domain over a layer 3 network.

IGMP Snooping

Snooping and updating tables based on the IGMP protocol used by hosts and adjacent routers on IP networks to establish multicast group memberships

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)

A vendor-neutral Link Layer protocol in the Inter­net Protocol Suite used by network devices for advertising their identity, capabilities, and neighbors on a­ IEEE 802 LAN

Quality of Service (QoS)

QoS Classification, QoS ReWrite, Queuing and Scheduling, RED & ECN are supported

Access Control List

An Access Control List (ACL) is a list of permissions attached to an object, to filter or match switches packets. When the pattern is matched at the hardware lookup engine, a specified action (e.g. permit/deny) is applied

Other QOS features:

• 802.3X Flow Control 
• WRED, Fast ECN & PFC
• 802.1Qbb Priority Flow Control 
• 802.1Qaz Enhanced Transmission Selection
• DCBX  and Application TLV support 
• Advanced QoS- qualification, Rewrite, Policers
• 802.1AB Station and Media Access Control Connectivity Discovery
• Advanced and user-mode Shared buffer management

Port Mirroring

Port mirroring enables data plane monitoring functionality which allows the user to send an entire traffic stream for testing.

sFlow

sFlow (ver. 5) is a procedure used for statistical monitoring of traffic in networks. MLNX-OS supports an sFlow sampling mechanism (agent), which includes collecting traffic samples and data from counters. The sFlow datagrams are then sent to a central collector.

RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE)

Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) is the remote memory management capability that allows server to server data movement directly between application memory spaces without CPU involvement.  Simplified RoCEv2 switch configuration automation supported  by just one command:   roce {lossy | semi-lossless | lossless}

Priority Flow Control

Provides an enhancement to the existing pause mechanism in Ether­net. The global Ethernet pause option stops all traffic on a link. PFC creates eight separate vir­tual links on the physical link and allows any of these links to be paused and restarted independently, enabling the network to create a no-drop class of service for virtual links.

Shared Buffers

All successfully received packets by a switch are stored on internal memory from the time they are received until the time they are transmitted. The SN3000M family's 48MB packet buffer is dynamically allocated and fully shared between all physical ports.  This dynamic shared buffer configuration is applied to provide lossless services, superior micro-burst absorption, and to ensure adaptive flow fairness between ports and priorities.

Storm Control

Storm Control is a feature which can be enabled on L2 Ethernet ports and port-channels to moni­tor inbound traffic to prevent disruptions caused by a broadcast, multicast, or unicast traffic storm on the physical interfaces

Store-and-Forward

Store-and-Forward is used to describe a functionality where a switch receives a complete packet, stores it, and only then forwards it.

Since the switch makes forwarding decisions based on the destination address which is at the header of the packet, the switch can make the forwarding decision before receiving the complete packet. This process is called cut-through, as the switch forwards part of the packet before receiving the complete packet. Cut-through and store-and-forward modes are configurable as a switch global or per port option.

IP Routing

IP Interfaces

The following 3 types of IP interfaces are supported:

• VLAN interface
• Loopback interface
• Router port interface

IPv6

IP version 6 (IPv6) is a routing protocol which succeeds IPv4. With the expansion of the Internet and data bases IPv6 addresses consist of 128 bits whose purpose is to allow networks to include a significantly higher number of nodes by increasing the pool of available unique IP addresses. IPv6 packets alleviate overhead and allow for future customizability.

OSPF

Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a link-state routing protocol for IP networks. It uses a link state routing algorithm and falls into the group of interior routing protocols, operating within a single autonomous system (AS).

BGP

Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is an exterior gateway protocol which is designed to transfer routing information between routers. It maintains and propagates a table of routes which desig­nates network reachability among autonomous systems (ASs).

BFD Infrastructure

Many protocols uses slow Hello mechanisms and failure is detection usually seconds after the problem occurs. The BFD goal is to provide low overhead short duration detection of failures between adjacent nodes and single mechanism that can be used for liveness detection over any media.

Policy Rules

Route Map

Route maps define conditions for redistributing routes between routing protocols. A route map clause is identified by a name, filter type (permit or deny) and a sequence number. Clauses with the same name are components of a single route map; the sequence number determines the order in which the clauses are compared to a route.

IP Prefix-List

Prefix-list is a list of entries, each of which can match one or more IP prefixes. A prefix-list is usually used to match a specific IP prefix, mostly in relation to IP route destinations.

Multicast (IGMP and PIM)

Protocol independent multicast (PIM) is a collection of protocols that deal with efficient delivery of IP multicast (MC) data. Those protocols are published in the series of RFCs and define differ­ent ways and aspects of multicast data distribution. PIM protocol family includes PIM dense mode (PIM-DM), PIM sparse mode (PIM-SM, which is not supported on Mellanox platforms), Bidirectional PIM (PIM-BIDIR) and Bootstrap router (BSR) protocol.

PIM builds and maintains multicast routing tables based on the unicast routing information pro­vided by unicast routing tables that can be maintained statically or dynamically by IP routing protocols like OSPF and BGP.

VRRP

The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a computer networking protocol that pro­vides for automatic assignment of available IP routers to participating hosts. This increases the availability and reliability of routing paths via automatic default gateway selections on an IP sub­network.

MAGP

Multi-active gateway protocol (MAGP) is aimed to solve the default gateway problem when a host is connected to a set of switch routers (SRs) via MLAG.

The network functionality in that case requires that each SR is an active default gateway router to the host, thus reducing hops between the SRs and directly forwarding IP traffic to the L3 cloud regardless which SR traffic comes through.

DHCP Relay

Since Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol must work correctly even before DHCP clients have been configured, the DHCP server and DHCP client need to be connected to the same network.

In larger networks, this is not always practical because each network link contains one or more DHCP relay agents. These DHCP-R agents receive messages from DHCP clients and forward them to DHCP servers thus extending the reach of the DHCP beyond the local network.

Configuration Rules and  NOTES:

NOTE: 1: JG915A - Storage connectivity support for this transceiver is limited to 40Km

NOTE: 2: HPE QSA28 (QSFP28 to SFP28) adapter (845970-B21) is compatible with all M-Series switches and is required with this transceiver to convert a QSFP+/QSFP28 slot to a single SFP+/SFP28 slot for 25G or 10G operation with this switch model. 

NOTE: 3: The SN2010M 25G DAC connectivity to another M-Series switch or 3rd party switch is limited to a 0.5m DAC cable. End device connectivity may use 1m or a 3m (26 gauge) DAC.

NOTE: 4:  This RJ45 crossover cable is compatible and supported for use when directly connecting the two M-Series switch MGMT ports. When configuring MLAG and also utilizing in-band management, the MGMT0 ports of the two switches should be connected. 

NOTE: 5: The interoperable 845972-B21 and 855817-B21 HPE 100Gb QSFP28 Bidirectional XCVRs do not interoperate with the JH419A and R0R40A transceivers.

NOTE: 6:  100Gbe SWDM4 LC transceivers JH419A and R0R40A are interoperable.

NOTE: 7:  10Gbase-T SFP+ RJ45 transceiver supports maximum length 30M CAT6a cable due to power density.  

NOTE 8: ONYX-3.8.2204 and later revisions are required for support of R0R41A in a QSA28 in SN3800M switches.
