Extreme XOS 提昇企業核心系統整合之應變能力
眾所周知, IT與業務流程能否亦步亦趨、緊密相隨,影響企業競爭力甚鉅;值此時刻,若不想矮人一截的企業,應當設法擺脫傳統資訊應用架構的束縛!企業希望透過 SOA,轉型成能迅速回應市場變遷的隨需應變( on demand)環境;因為 SOA 提供可互通、可調適、標準化且具有彈性的應用程式架構,並與商業流程緊密相連,使得企業能夠快速因應市場需求進而產生巨大的規模效率。
如何讓企業網路支援 SOA
在全球企業資訊系統走向服務導向架構的同時,企業網路支援服務導向架構的需求已成為服務的一部份。 Extreme Networks 在 2003年就發表了全世界第一款使用模組化網路作業系統 XOS 的交換器。模組化作業系統相較於傳統作業系統的優勢在於大幅增加了系統的可靠度,對於網路傳輸是 Application Awareness (可識別網路應用 ),支援 XML管理介面,讓網路與應用服務系統緊密結合,並同時內建使用者認證、自我防禦及虛擬網路安全資源等多種安全機制。 Extreme Networks 新一代核心交換器皆採 XOS 作業系統,提供完整核心網路所需的一切功能,確保企業網路基礎建置投資。
Extreme Networks 提供一種新的線上資源「 Widget Central」,可透過下載 widgets,可以在企業用戶間或是以使用者社群( Community)的方式去分享彼此的網路增強工具以滿足企業建構 SOA的各種需求。經由這些 Widget工具可以 滿足企業在 網路建置部署( deployment)、網路監測( monitoring)、網路操作( operation)和網路運作最佳化( optimization)方面的需求。 D eployment 的 widgets 能協助客戶,很快地設定某些網路安全政策或是聚合式網路( converged network)所需的 QoS政策;操作類的 widgets使客戶可以針對網路事件做出自動反應,例如將新的 VoIP話機連上網路時可以自動偵測是何種話機;運作最佳化的 widgets則可協助用戶調整出最佳的網路效能;監測類的 widgets則可以提供網路使用狀態的資訊。所有的 widgets都可免費下載及依照特殊需求而再做修改,同時,經由用戶社群參與的精神,將會在 Extreme Networks產品用戶之間加以強化與共享。

同時跨足企業及電信應用設備供應, Extreme承諾客戶可以單一網路同時整合資料、語音及影像的傳輸服務,不論使用者是使用何種應用與服務。且具下列功能特色:
高語音品質的連接效能
- 設備效能可達全線速 (Wire-Speed) QoS、 ACL 及 Jumbo Frame,不論啟動任何功能均保證傳輸效能。
- 超低 Latency 及 Jiffer 讓 VoIP 語音品質完美呈現。

- 支援 XML 介面,可使用外部程式控制交換器行為。
- 結合 Security Appliance 動態防禦異常行為或節點。
網路架構從核心到存取端 10G及 IPv6 完整應用的解決方案
誰提供全世界最大網路展 INTEROP Show 會場網路?誰提供世足賽 FIFA全方位轉播、語音及賽事報導網路?如何應付來自網路的各種攻擊並確保網路服務絕不中斷? Extreme Networks 提供自核心端到存取端完整網路基礎建設解決方案。 Extreme 不以以往的成就自滿於今年七月發表新一代 SummitX 系列交換器,不論你需要的是一般 Data存取、 Voice 網路基礎建設、 Wireless、 IPv6、 10G、認證機制、安全政策檢驗或加密機制, Extreme 是將所有應用上的需求一併設計於新一代的交換核心 XOS 內,確保現在網路設備上的投資可以滿足未來應用上的需求。
完整的 10G及 IPv6 支援能力
在大量的高速傳輸應用增加的同時,可以看到的是 10G 乙太網路的必要性。 SummitX/BD8800系列同時支援 XENPAK 及 XFP 兩種 10G擴充模組,且所有 10G埠均可達 Wire-Speed 高傳輸效能。完全滿足客戶端在 Video-On-Demand、 E-learning 及 High Performance Cluster Computing 應用。 Extreme 領先業界推出全系列完整 10G Solution,從核心端到終端介接一應俱全。
Extreme SummitX 系列採用 ASIC硬體可直接援 IPv6, SummitX 以最大效能 Wire-Speed 傳輸 IPv6 封包,同時處理 IPv6 的 ACL。此外作業系統核心 XOS 亦支援 IPv6 的路由協定及 Tunnel 功能,含 RIPng、 OSPFv3,並支援 Dual Stack及 6to4 機制以互通 IPv4 及 IPv6。 Extreme Networks 是目前唯一能提供 10G及 IPv6 路由功能自核心到存取端完整解決方案應用需求的設備廠商。
Extreme BlackDiamond 及 Summit X 系列交換器皆支援 10G埠連接擴充功能

Universal Port 一個埠同時滿足多種類設備連結
傳統網路只能傳輸資料,為擴充現有網路能同時能應用在語音、影像、無線及監控等等設備存取, Extreme 提出了 Universal Port 的觀念。簡單的說,就是一個網路埠要能同時滿足語音、影像、電腦等多種不同設備介接及各種應用,例如自動偵測 POE 電源供應量,自動分派 QoS VLAN 等 Policy。 Extreme 已成功展示了與 Avaya 結合的 VoIP應用,網路可動態因應 VoIP 應用,將所需的頻寬 QoS 設定及對應的安全規則 VLAN、 ACL 甚至 PoE Budget 執行於設備對應的埠上。
完整 NAC (Network Access Control) 支援機制
身為具自我防禦攻擊功能的網路設備,支援多種網路安全機制,光最為重要的使用者認證機制就支援 802.1X 標準、 Web-Login及 MAC Authentication 三種,可應付各種網路主機、作業系統及 IP 設備 ( IP Phone、 Wireless AP 及 Camera 等 )。針對 endpoint 端安全檢測機制,可結合 Sentriant AG 提供 endpoint 端多達百種以上檢測功能,針對無法符合安全政策之主機,可動態將所屬網路埠切換到隔離區的 VLAN 作阻隔,而不讓內部其他網路有被感染或入侵的機會。

Extreme 全系列的交換器皆支援 DHCP/IP Source lockdown 功能,能限定所有用戶節點,無法自設 IP 上網,僅能透過 DHCP 取得 IP,並將 IP 及 MAC 自動設定於交換器上,完全避免 IP衝突及管理等相關問題。另外交換器上還有 Gratuitous ARP Protection及 ARP Validation機制,可以阻隔 netcut、 Man-in-Middle等來自網路的偽冒攻擊。

Go Green 企業節能三主張
在全球能源持續緊縮、價格飛漲的今日,企業在採購設備的同時也應該考慮到其使用的能源及後續維護設備的總成本支出。在一項由第三方公證單位 Tolly的測試報告中, Extreme設備只需其它廠牌設備一半到三分之一的電量即可提供同等埠數運作。 Extreme設備符合環保規範,並且提出支援企業節能 Go Green三大主張:
- 採用低耗電量的網路交換器設備 - 在 RFP 上訂定耗電量的需求,或直接做產品規格的比較選用節能產品。
- 採用節能式網路設計架構 - 將傳統三層式 (core、 aggragation、 edge) 架構改成二層式架構,可以直接減少中間層設備的能源消耗與設備本身成本。
- 採用具節約效果之 POE 供電式交換器 - POE 是經由一般雙絞線供電,可推動各種不同的網路設備,如 IP電話、網路攝影機、無線 AP 等具節能效果之 POE 交換器可於下班時間自動停止供電之節能效果,可節省達 50-75% 的耗電量。
總結
Extreme Networks 是乙太網路交換器領導品牌,同時跨足企業及電信應用設備供應。我們的願景在承諾客戶可以單一網路同時整合資料、語音及影像的傳輸服務,並同時兼顧高效能、 高可靠度、安全性及易於管理。

 | Sentriant AG Network IP Security系列 Whether they know it or not, most organizations have experienced the pain and financial impact of network compromises due to insecure endpoint devices connecting from within their own network.
Preventing these security incidents requires more than shutting off ports or limiting physical access within a building.
Effective access control requires a pro-active approach to ensuring that all endpoint devices are properly secured and free of threats before they are granted access to internal network resources.
Sentriant AG200 meets this need by providing a complete Network Access Control (NAC) platform that works with a variety of network infrastructures, across all access types (wired, wireless, VPN), and with a wide range of endpoint devices.
Sentriant AG200 automatically tests each endpoint and verifies that its security level meets the organization's security requirements before allowing access to the network.
A non-compliant device can be placed in quarantine with restricted access until it can be repaired through several remediation options before being granted full access.
Advanced Endpoint Integrity Testing for Policy Compliant Access
Sentriant AG200 prevents harmful endpoint devices from connecting to the internal network in a repeatable manner necessary to achieve ongoing policy compliance.
Hundreds of up-to-date security checks
Fast testing in only seconds
Support for both Windows and Mac endpoints
Multiple testing options including a completely agent-less solution
Flexible Deployment Modes for Infrastructure Compatibility
Unlike solutions that only function in specific network environments, Sentriant AG200 works with any IP infrastructure without forcing expensive network upgrades or changes.
Single-server or Multi-server deployment
Multiple enforcement methods for quarantine (802.1X, DHCP, Inline)
Works with existing authentication schemes (Active Directory, LDAP, RADIUS)
Enterprise-Class Management and Administration for Low Operational Complexity
Sentriant AG200 can easily be integrated with existing IT systems and operations and provides complete visibility over the entire NAC process.
Centralized, web-based management interface
Multi-user, role-based administrative access
Standard and custom reports
Rich APIs for IT system integration
