Huawei eKit – S220-24T4X

Product Overview:

Huawei eKitEngine S220 series switches are Layer 2 GE/10GE switches designed for the small office and home office
(SOHO)/small- and medium-sized business (SMB) market.

They include eight models, such as those with 8 downlink GE electrical ports (PoE/non-PoE ports), 24 downlink GE electrical ports (PoE/non-PoE ports), 48 downlink GE electrical ports (PoE/non-PoE), and uplink GE/10GE ports.

These switches provide many features, such as rich management methods (web-based management, CLI-based management, and app-based management), flexible Ethernet networking, and diversified security control.

Therefore, they can be widely used in scenarios such as SOHO, enterprise office, budget hotels, factories, primary and secondary education, shelter hospitals, and building security.

Product Features:

Flexible Ethernet Networking

• In addition to traditional Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), and Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), eKitEngine S220 series switches support the latest Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) standard in the industry. ERPS is defined in ITU-T G.8032. It provides millisecond-level protection switching based on traditional Ethernet MAC and bridging functions.

Diversified Security Control

• eKitEngine S220 series switches support multiple security authentication modes including MAC address authentication and 802.1X authentication, and dynamically deliver user policies (VLAN, QoS, and ACL). eKitEngine S220 series switches support port-based 802.1X authentication, MAC address authentication, and multi-mode authentication.
• eKitEngine S220 series switches provide a series of mechanisms to defend against DoS attacks and user-targeted
  attacks. DoS attacks are targeted at switches and include SYN flood, Land, Smurf, and ICMP flood attacks. User
  targeted attacks include bogus DHCP server attacks, IP/MAC spoofing attacks, DHCP request flood attacks, and attacks with variable DHCP CHADDR values in packets.
• eKitEngine S220 series switches can generate and maintain DHCP snooping binding entries and discard invalid packets that do not match the binding entries. DHCP snooping trusted and untrusted ports can be specified to ensure that users connect only to the authorized DHCP server.

Easy Operations and Maintenance

• eKitEngine S220 series switches can be managed and maintained using SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, SNMPv3, CLI, web system, or SSHv2.0.

PoE Power Supply

PoE models of eKitEngine S220 series switches provide the following capabilities:

• Fast PoE: PoE switches can supply power to PDs within seconds upon power-on, which is different from common
  switches that supply power to PDs in 1 to 3 minutes after power modules are installed. When a PoE switch restarts
  due to a power failure, it continues to supply power to PDs immediately after being powered on without waiting until it completes the restart. This greatly shortens the power-off time of PDs.
• Perpetual PoE: When a PoE switch restarts (for example, during software upgrade), it continues to supply power to downstream PDs, ensuring uninterrupted PoE power supply.

Smart Upgrade

• Based on Huawei Online Upgrade Platform (HOUP), eKitEngine S220 series switches support smart upgrade. They obtain the version upgrade path from the HOUP and download the new system software. The upgrade process is highly automated as it supports one-click upgrade. In addition, this feature supports system software pre-loading, which greatly shortens the upgrade time and reduces the service interruption time.
• Smart upgrade greatly simplifies device upgrade operations, making it possible for customers to upgrade versions by themselves. This feature helps customers reduce considerable maintenance costs. In addition, the upgrade policy of the HOUP is used to standardize the upgrade path, which greatly reduces the risk of upgrade failure.

Cloud Management

• Huawei eKit App allows users to configure, monitor, and inspect switches on the cloud, reducing onsite deployment and O&M manpower costs and decreasing network OPEX.
• eKitEngine S220 series switches support both cloud management and on-premise management modes. These two
  management modes can be flexibly switched as required to achieve smooth evolution while maximizing return on
  investment (ROI).
