Product overview
The past several decades in networking have been defined by static, closed networking solutions designed for the client- server era.
Aruba is introducing the Aruba 8325 campus core and aggregation switch series, a game
-changing solution offering a flexible and
innovative approach to dealing with the demands of the mobile, cloud and IoT era.
The 8325 switch series provides industry
-leading line rate 1/10/25GbE (SFP/SFP+/SFP28) and 40/100 GbE (QSFP+/QSFP28)
connectivity in a compact 1U form
factor. Together with the modular Aruba 8400 chassis, the 8325 rounds out Aruba’s campus
and data center switching portfolio with an enterprise core and aggregation solution that ensures higher performance and high
er
uptime.
The 8325 switch series is based
on the ArubaOS-CX, a modern software system for the enterprise core that automates and
simplifies many critical and complex network tasks, delivers enhanced fault tolerance and facilitates zero service disruption
during
planned or unplanned control
-plane events. The key innovations in ArubaOS-CX are its microservices style modular architecture,
REST APIs, Python scripting capabilities and the Aruba Network Analytics Engine (NAE).
ArubaOS
-CX is based on a modular architecture that allows individual process restartability and upgrades. Its REST APIs and
Python scripting enables fine
-grained programmability of the switch functions; its unique NAE provides the ability to monitor and
troubleshoot the network easily.
The NAE framework is made up of a time series
database (TSDB) and associated REST APIs.
The TSDB may be used to store configuration and operational state. Customers can use ArubaOS
-CX REST APIs, Python scripting
capabilities and time series data to write software modules to trouble shoot problems. The
time series data may also be used to
analyze trends, identify anomalies and predict future capacity requirements.
