spine switches

[bluesea2010]

Hi 

What are the criteria for choosing spine and leaf switches 

Thanks

[Sergiu.Daniluk]

The most common criteria: 

• port type (SFP/QSFP/BASE-T)
• port density
• bandwidth/throughput
• supported features (example macsec/cloudsec)
• generation (FX vs FX2 vs FX3) - this usually goes hand-in-hand with supported features

Stay safe,

Sergiu

hi,

i think capacity .!

So, how many spines and how many leaves will you use? 

example: 4 spine and 300 leaves ?

The kitlist is prepared according to the capacity.

port speeds have to be standard min 100gbit ,

most importantly, a redundant design,
