H19-338 HCSP-Presales-Storage Questions and Answers

The WAN-side controller can manage only WAN services, not LAN services. The LAN-side controller can manage both LAN and WAN services. This is because the LAN-side controller supports both SD-WAN and SD-Campus functions, while the WAN-side controller only supports SD-WAN functions.

The iMaster NCE-Fabric cannot be deployed in a single-node system. According to the iMaster NCE-Fabric Product Overview, iMaster NCE-Fabric is a distributed system that consists of three nodes: the management node, the control node, and the analysis node. The management node provides basic management functions, such as configuration, monitoring, and alarm management. The control node provides control functions, such as VXLAN tunnel establishment and policy association. The analysis node provides analysis functions, such as network health analysis, fault diagnosis, and performance optimization.

Compared with common Ethernet, the NOF+ scenario greatly improves usability and reliability. According to the Huawei CloudFabric Data Center Network Solution White Paper, NOF+ (Network-Oriented Fabric+) is a data center network architecture that supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity between servers and leaf nodes. NOF+ uses VXLAN technology to create overlay networks on top of theunderlay network, which improves network scalability, flexibility, and security. NOF+ also uses M-LAG technology to provide link redundancy and load balancing between leaf nodes and servers, which improves network availability and performance.

NE8000 M14 cannot be deployed in a 300 mm-deep cabinet. According to the Huawei NetEngine 8000 M14 Routers Support Guide1, the NE8000 M14 requires a cabinet with a depth of at least 800 mm.

iMaster NCE-FabricInsight is Huawei’s intelligent O&M software that can provide network-wide visibility, intelligent analysis, and automated O&M for data center networks. iMaster NCE-FabricInsight can collect data from various sources, such as SNMP, Telemetry, Syslog, sFlow, and iFIT. It can also use AI algorithms to detect anomalies, locate faults, predict risks, and optimize performance. iMaster NCE-FabricInsight can also automate network configuration, deployment, verification, and recovery.

Huawei ranked No.1 in the Wi-Fi 6 standard working group in the number of proposals. According to the Huawei AirEngine Wi-Fi 6 Solution White Paper, Huawei has submitted more than 240 proposals to the IEEE 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) standard working group, accounting for 15% of all proposals.

The switch that does not support iStack is S1730S-H. This is because the S1730S-H does not have any stack ports or support stack cards. The iStack technology allows multiple switches to be connected and managed as a single logical device, which improves network scalability and reliability.

CloudEngine S5736-S supports iStack, which is a technology that allows multiple switches to be connected and managed as a single logical device, improving network scalability and reliability 1. The other features are not supported by the CloudEngine S5736-S. Native AC is a feature of the CloudEngine S7700 series switches that enables them to function as wireless access controllers 2. Free mobility is a feature of Huawei’s Agile Campus Network Solution that enables seamless roaming of wireless terminals 3. VXLAN is a technology that creates overlay networks to extend Layer 2 connectivity across Layer 3 networks 4, but it is not supported by the CloudEngine S5736-S 1.

 NE8000 X4 and X8 are high-end core routers designed for large-scale IP backbone networks, data centers, and metro networks . They support various redundancy designs to ensure high availability and reliability, such as MPU (Main Processing Unit) 1+1 backup, SFU (Switch Fabric Unit) 7+1 backup, and PEM (Power Entry Module) 1+1 backup . MPU 1+1 backup means that two MPUs work in active/standbymode and provide control plane redundancy . SFU 7+1 backup means that eight SFUs work in N+1 mode and provide data plane redundancy . PEM 1+1 backup means that two PEMs work in active/standby mode and provide power supply redundancy . The NE8000 X4 and X8 do not support power supply 9+1 backup, which is a feature of the NE8000 X16 router .

Free mobility cannot be deployed for traffic between VNs. Free mobility is supported only for policies in a VN. Communication between VNs can be directly implemented on the border node or through the external firewall. Free mobility is a feature that allows users to access network resources without changing their IP addresses or VLANs when they move within a VN. Communication between VNs requires inter-VN routing or firewall policies to ensure security and isolation.

Huawei AirEngine 6760 series supports four spatial streams by default, but after an RTU (Right To Use) license is purchased, it can support up to eight spatial streams on the 5 GHz band. It can also support four spatial streams on the 2.4 GHz band or scanning mode. Therefore, the possible spatial stream combinations are 4+8, 4+8+4, 4+4+scanning, and 4+6+scanning.

BGP EVPN is a control plane protocol that can be used for VXLAN networks . VXLAN is a technology that creates overlay networks to extend Layer 2 connectivity across Layer 3 networks . BGP EVPN has the following functions as a VXLAN control plane protocol:

It automatically establishes the VXLAN tunnel between VTEPs (VXLAN Tunnel Endpoints), which are devices that encapsulate and decapsulate VXLAN packets . You do not need to manually configure a full-mesh tunnel between all VTEPs, which reduces the configuration complexity and improves the scalability .

It advertises host routes and MAC address entries on the control plane, which are used to learn the location of hosts and their corresponding VTEPs . This reduces the unknown traffic flooding that occurs when the destination MAC address is unknown, and optimizes the packet forwarding by using optimal paths .

It implements Layer 2 interconnection between data centers in different networking modes, such as bridging, routing, or integrated routing and bridging (IRB) . This enables seamless communication between hosts in different subnets or VLANs across data centers .

It advertises subnet routes to implement Layer 3 interconnection of data centers through VXLAN tunnels . This enables routing between different subnets or VLANs across data centers without requiring an external gateway device .

The built-in LAN ports on all Huawei NetEngine AR6000/600 series routers can be used as WAN ports. According to the NetEngine AR6000 Series Enterprise Routers Product Overview, NetEngine AR6000/600 series routers support flexible WAN/LAN port configuration, which allows users to use any built-in LAN port as a WAN port.

AirEngine 6760R-51E is a Wi-Fi 6 AP designed for rail transit scenarios. It supports 8x8 MU-MIMO and eight spatial streams, achieving a rate of up to 5.95 Gbit/s2. AirEngine 6761-21T is a Wi-Fi 6 AP designed for indoor scenarios such as offices and classrooms. AirEngine 6760-X1E is a Wi-Fi 6 AP designed for indoor scenarios such as hotels and shopping malls. AirEngine 6760-51EI is a Wi-Fi 6 AP designed for indoor scenarios such as stadiums and exhibition halls.

 Policy association achieves policy flexibility and network simplicity on large campus networks. With policy association, user access policies are centrally managed on the gateway devices and enforced by gateway and access devices. According to the Huawei CloudCampus Solution Description, policy association is a feature that allows user policies to be associated with user groups, service types, or service priorities, rather than IP addresses or VLANs. Policy association simplifies network configuration and management, and improves user experience.
