2-Tier L2 Design
* 6400 100G Core Switches
* 8320 48-P 10G RJ45 Access Switches
* 40G DAC connections between Core and AccessCore Switches = VSX Pairs of 6400 switches (each with 2 x 12-port QSFP28 100G modules) Each pair uses:
* 2 x 1M 100G DAC for ISL
* 1 x 1M 100G DAC for Keepalive
* 2 x 5M 40G DAC to each access switch
Each Spine switch has 5 x 100G interfaces available.
This solution could scale to a maximum of:
In a Spine and Leaf Design with the following specs:
* 8400 100G Spine Switches
* 8360 48-P 10G RJ45 Leaf Switches
* 100G DAC connections between Spine and Leafs
Spine Switches = 8400 with 12 QSFP28 ports (F-B airflow)
Each Spine Switch uses:
* 1 x 100G QSFP28 5M DACs to each Leaf switch
Each Leaf Switch uses:
* 1 x 100G QSFP28 5M DACs to each Spine switch
* 2 x 100G 1M DAC for ISL
* 1 x 10G RJ45 for Keep alive
Each Spine switch can support up to 48 available 100G QSFP28 interfaces.
What is the scalability for this solution?
