Equal Cost Multi-Path
The Summit 400 supports the Equal Cost Multi-Path feature that not only
improves switch availability, but also improves performance and saves the
customer money. Equal Cost Multi-Path enables dual uplinks to be load
balanced for performance and cost savings while also supporting redundant
failover. If one uplink fails, traffic is automatically routed to the remaining
uplink and connectivity is maintained. The Summit 400 supports a
combination of four fiber 1 Gigabit Ethernet and two 10 Gigabit Ethernet
uplinks so the network administrator has unprecedented flexibility in
choosing the least expensive uplink while maintaining the highest level of
availability.
Maximize Availability by Minimizing Downtime
The Summit 400 implements the same ExtremeWare management code
base and EPICenter® graphical interface as all other Extreme switches.
Common management commands and common “look and feel” help the
user’s IT Support staff to quickly diagnose problems and rapidly implement
fixes. Reducing management complexity means that problems get resolved
sooner and the end user can be more productive.
Limited Lifetime Warranty
The Summit 400 supports a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
