Juniper
QFX5230-64CD
Product Description
With the current growth in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) developments, networks are expected to perform at their best to support heavy workloads. Higher bandwidth requirements between the server and the top-of-rack switch result in higher 400GbE radix requirements at the spine and super-spine layer of the IP fabric multi-tier architecture. Juniper QFX5230-64CD Switch supports: − High-speed, high-density, spine-and-leaf IP fabrics − 400GbE, 200GbE, 100GbE, 50GbE, 40GbE, 25GbE, and 10GbE connections − Advanced L2/L3 features and secure ZTP − Large, next-generation IP fabrics with best-in-class automation capabilities
Automation and monitoring
- Apstra Data Center Director (formerly Juniper Apstra) intent-based networking delivers full day 0 through day 2+ capabilities for IP/EVPN fabrics with closed-loop assurance in the data center. Data Center Director is a fabric management solution that empowers organizations to automate and manage their networks across virtually any data center design, vendor, and topology, making private data center as easy as cloud. Data Center Director provides full day 2+ operations assurance with multiple built-in intent-based analytics probes to assure your network is running as designed. In addition, Data Center Director provides a simple UI workflow to create custom intent‑based analytics to capture, enrich, and visualize data from the managed devices. Data Center Director also provides the capability to capture and analyze flow data to provide complete network visibility. Juniper QFX5230-64CD Switch 2 For additional automation, Junos OS Evolved supports a robust API set to support HashiCorp Terraform, Ansible, zero-touch provisioning (ZTP), operations and event scripts, automatic rollback, and Python scripts. The QFX523064CD supports Junos Telemetry Interface, a modern telemetry streaming tool that provides performance monitoring in complex, dynamic data centers.
