With
the explosive growth of Internet, intranets and web-based applications,
the enterprise and service provider networking infrastructure necessitates
a scalable and intelligent Ethernet switching solution that can
be connected to a new generation of higher speed network appliances
and application aware clients, including Gigabit Ethernet desktops,
Voice over IP (VoIP) phones, wireless access points and video-enabled
mobile appliances.
FASTPATH®
Distributed Architecture technology integrated with leading switching
silicon provides a highly scalable solution at the intelligent edge
of the network. Network managers will now be able to meet changing
network usage requirements on an as-needed basis by growing their
systems from fixed configuration devices to modular, stackable solutions
to higher end chassis equipment – all based on equipment that features
common networking software.
Come
hear experts from LVL7 Systems and Broadcom discuss the challenges
of developing distributed networking infrastructure equipment that
can solve the needs at the intelligent edge of networks. See a demonstration
of the FASTPATH® Distributed Architecture integrated with the Broadcom®
StrataXGS™ silicon for delivering stackable and chassis-based systems
that feature the following benefits to OEMs:
- Scalability
Supports the most taxing switching
and routing tasks while allowing the seamless scaling of both
bandwidth and users.
- Convergence
A common platform that enables
media and application convergence.
- Advanced
Functionality FASTPATH® includes
industry standard Layer 2, Layer 3 and Layer 4 features required
for an intelligent Ethernet deployment including advanced Quality
of Service (QOS), Multicast, Security and Power over Ethernet
capabilities. Additional functionality including wireless and
IPv6 can be added through future software upgrades.
- Services
Enablement Intelligent Layer
4 - Layer 7 switched services and applications can be deployed
on the FASTPATH® platform, including Server and Firewall Load
Balancers, Differentiated Services, URL Switching, VoIP PBX, and
Wireless LAN Switches.
- Resiliency
and Redundancy Allows new levels
of resiliency for stackable and modular chassis equipment through
advanced software and hardware failover in a converged infrastructure.
- Ease
of Management By interconnecting
multiple switches and unifying them as a single, logical, convergence-optimized
unit that is managed via a single IP address, users can easily
deploy and manage an intelligent network. Further, the FASTPATH®
common management software platform discovers and accurately depicts
network topology allowing management of stackable switches simply
and efficiently without adding overhead.
- Future Proofing OEMs
and service providers can easily customize products with the addition
of new networking protocols and technologies.
