Advantages of Comware V9:

Comware V9 adopts a native Linux kernel, and all its functionalities are fully implemented in user space, making it easy to upgrade the kernel version.

Comware V9 supports containerization, allowing Comware to be deployed in the form of containers. It also supports the deployment of third-party applications in containers on devices running Comware V9, enhancing the openness of Comware.

Comware V9 deepens the modular design concept, making the business modules independent and allowing them to be deployed separately or released as independent software. This enables the Comware V9 platform to be more flexible and adaptable to different network environments. The modular design also makes it easier to upgrade or enhance individual functions without affecting the overall operation of the system.

Comware V9 has been designed to fully consider the needs of virtualization-based products. It features a lightweight support architecture, which enables faster and more flexible deployment of virtualized products.

SmartMC (Smart Management Center)

As the network scale increases, a large number of access devices are required at the network edge, which makes the management of these devices very cumbersome. The main purpose of SmartMC is to solve the problem of centralized management of a large number of scattered network devices. It is designed to solve the switch-based operation and maintenance tasks of small enterprises. SmartMC provides unified operation, maintenance, and management of the network by built-in graphical operation platform.

SmartMC simplifies the operation, maintenance, and management of Small and Medium-sized campuses:

Smart management: includes device role selection, FTP server configuration, global configuration, and network management port configuration, etc.

Intelligent operation and maintenance: include group management, equipment, or group upgrade backup, monitoring and equipment failure replacement, etc.

Visualization: includes networking topology visualization and management, device list display, device ports display, etc.

Smart business: includes user management, etc. After network access users are created and successfully activated, these users can access the SmartMC network through the one-key-armed port.

The H3C S5580X-EI&S5580S-EI series switches can be used as the management device of SmartMC. You can log in to the SmartMC network through the S5580X-EI&S5580S-EI to manage the entire network in a unified manner.
