Abstract

Enterprise switches need to provide comprehensive Layer 2/Layer 3 functionality along with specialized features that are easy to use. As space is at a premium in many enterprise data environments, it is beneficial for the switch to have a compact footprint.

ZTE Corporation commissioned Tolly to evaluate the performance and features of the ZTE ZXR10 5900E Series Easy-Maintenance MPLS Switch. Tolly validated the Layer 2, Layer 3 and MPLS functionality common to the series including Multicast, QoS, security, and clock synchronization features. Interoperability with Cisco Systems was also demonstrated.

Performance tests showed that the ZXR10 5928E delivers line rate throughput across all of its 24 GbE ports and 4 10GbE ports.
