Four Asus enterprise vswitches create a perfect campus network (1)

With the rapid development of information technology and the continuous development of new teaching and learning applications, not only universities, but also campus network construction in primary and secondary schools have been mentioned on the agenda. However, according to the actual application of domestic campus networks, although many domestic primary and secondary schools have set up Campus Networks, most schools are still not widely used based on campus networks, this not only makes some of the original computer business systems of the school unable to fully utilize the promotion energy of education, but also leads to the waste of campus network resources caused by "low application level.

Two major focuses of Campus Network Construction

Because "campus network" is a brand new concept and is not yet mature in China, it makes it impossible for schools, the media, and the computer industry to fully understand and understand the campus network, in addition, the blind and biased understanding of the campus network has formed two focal points in the construction of the domestic campus network.

First, campus network-based applications are scarce. The practice of "attaching importance to hardware and ignoring software" is very serious in the field of campus network construction. Few domestic enterprises spend money to develop campus network-based management and application software. Many campus networks are mostly solutions proposed by system integrators based on advanced hardware devices. They are "device integration ".

Secondly, the new campus network is not closely integrated with the original business and information system of the school, and the system has poor scalability. Most of the most advanced devices integrated by many campus network systems are only a few hundred thousand, usually millions and tens of millions. However, due to the lack of application software, the lack of close integration with the original business system, and poor scalability, many schools spend millions of dollars. networks built using the ATM technology are only used for file sharing, or simply provide Internet access support.

Five standards that science campus networks must comply

"For the Asus network, we have our own understanding of the goals of the campus network, not just the simplicity of traditional Internet access for schools ", fu Jianhua, product manager of the network product department of Asus computer China Business Group, said, the goal of the campus network should be deeply understood as "building an office automation, computer-aided teaching, modern computer campus culture and office automation as the core, relying on modern network technology, advanced technology, strong scalability, and coverage of the Campus Backbone Network of the school's main buildings, connecting various school PCs, workstations, terminal equipment and LAN, and connecting with the relevant Wan, promote yourself online and obtain Internet education resources."

Fu jianjian also introduced that it is very easy to test whether a campus network is a scientific, efficient, and practical campus network. As long as the answers to the following questions are positive, it is a qualified campus network.

First, is the overall planning reasonable? Is it necessary to consider the geographical distribution and communication conditions of the department based on the global and all-round work needs of school construction?

Secondly, is the combination of advancement, openness, scalability, and standardization the best?

Third, do you emphasize good hierarchical design in communication networks, resource configuration, system services, and network management?

Fourth, do you have to use limited funds to provide advanced platforms for scientific research, such as Visual Computing, computer collaboration, and virtual network computer simulation?

Fifth, does it support broadband multimedia services?

Four Asus products are recommended for the best campus network core switch

"So, what factors should primary school consider when selecting a scheme for campus network construction based on the two main problems currently occurring ?" Fu Jianhua, product manager of the network product department of Asus computer China Business Group, stressed that primary and secondary schools should first look at the functions, brand and quality of switches as the core of the entire network, because the core switch directly affects the functions, security, scalability, ease of use, cost effectiveness, and integration of the original business system of the campus network. Second, we should pay attention to whether the solution provided by the manufacturer has advanced management software to facilitate network management and maintenance.

Asus ACNM-the world's first network device management solution perfectly integrated with the network management system and MIB compiler

As the world's first Network device Management solution that perfectly integrates the Network Management system and MIB compiler, the most powerful functions of asus acnm (ASUS Centralized Network Management) Network Management software are mainly reflected in four aspects:

First, the browser interface management function is added. Internet Explorer or other WEB browsers allow network administrators to easily remotely manage all Asus network products.

Second, you can automatically and intelligently describe the network-wide connection topology and perform various configurations and management to avoid complicated and incorrect device configurations.

Powerful management interfaces

Third, both Windows and Linux operating systems are supported.

Fourth, ACNM also has a standard snmp mib setting. Combined with visual graphical interfaces, ACNM can implement two management modes: WEB management and remote network cluster management.

King of 10 Gigabit-Asus chassis-type 10-Gigabit enterprise core route switch supporting hardware line rate IPv6 GigaX 6504

When "10 Gigabit as the core, 1 Gigabit to desktop" gradually became the mainstream, a powerful 10 gigabit core switch became the key to campus network, the Asus 10-Gigabit core switch GigaX 6504 is undoubtedly the best choice for many schools. In addition to supporting hardware line rate IPv6, Asus GigaX 6504 has three outstanding features:

1. Excellent backboard bandwidth, switching capacity, and packet forwarding rate. It has a 2.4 Tbps of Backboard bandwidth and can be expanded to 476 Tbps. The switching capacity and packet forwarding rate are as high as Gbps and Mpps respectively;

Second, powerful scalability, which can smoothly support various Ethernet interfaces from Mbit/s to Mbit/s, because GigaX 6504 provides a maximum of 0.32 million MB ports, 96 Gigabit ports, and 192 Gbps ports;
