The CloudEngine S16700 series switches are Huawei's top-performing core switches designed for high-quality 10 Gigabit campus networks. They offer ultra-fast forwarding capabilities with 14.4 Tbit/s bandwidth evolution per slot, leading data switching capabilities, and massive terminal access capacity. For the first time in a campus network, they introduce M-LAG cross-device link aggregation, achieving 99.9999% reliability. They also provide innovative features such as VxLAN, service mobility, QoS, iPCA, one-click service deployment, and minute-level fault location, leading campus networks into the 400Gbps era.
1. Extra-large capacity
One device with 10W terminals increases capacity by 30%, meeting the evolution needs of the next 10 years.
2. Super-fast forwarding
Backplane-less orthogonal architecture, 14.4T bandwidth evolution per slot, 4 times that of the industry average.
3. Ultra-high reliability
M-LAG enables cross-device link aggregation, ensuring zero service interruption during upgrades and preventing fault propagation through isolation.

| iPCA Quality Perception | Supports direct tagging of business packets to obtain real-time statistics on packet loss count and packet loss rate. Supports network-level and device-level statistics on packet loss quantity and rate for Layer 2 and 3 networks. | |
| VxLAN features | Supports VxLAN Layer 2 gateways and Layer 3 gateways Supports centralized gateways and distributed gateways. Supports BGP-EVPN Configuration via Netconf is supported. | |
| reliability | Support LACP Supports VRRP and BFD for VRRP Supports BFD for BGP/IS-IS/OSPF/static routes Supports Eth-OAM 802.3ah and 802.1ag. Support Smartlink | |
| interoperability | VBST is based on the VLAN Spanning Tree Protocol (and interoperates with PVST/PVST+/RPVST). LNP (Link Type Negotiation Protocol) is a protocol with similar functionality to DTP. VCMP (VLAN Centralized Management Protocol) (similar in function to VTP) | |
