  1. Alcatel OmniSwitch 8800 Delivering the Best Availability for the Enterprise Core

  2. Alcatel OmniSwitch 8800 • OmniSwitch 8800 Overview • Competitive Positioning • 10 Gigabit Ethernet & GigE for Data Center and Campus Trends • Best Value for the Enterprise • OmniSwitch 8800 Network Applications • Service & Support • Summary

  3. MANAGEABILITY • AOS features designed for usability • Consistency across the network with AOS everywhere • Unified management solutions AVAILABILITY • AOS designed for best in class resiliency • High availability extended from chassis to stack thru virtual chassis concept • Powerful QoS for mission critical apps SECURITY • “Built-in” multi-layer security framework • Unmatched user partitioning/ authentication • Complemented by partnership program Best Value for Enterprise Networks “To provide our customers with the industry's best value in highly available, secure and easy to manage network solutions.”

  4. Business Value – AvailabilityWithout availability, nothing else matters • Beyond availability: resiliency by design • Minimize downtime and guarantee network availability • Where redundancy is required, Alcatel products have a significant cost advantage • Smart resiliency with sub second recovery with self-healing mechanisms • Resilient mobility network solutions from edge to core and from wired to wireless “Alcatel’s OmniSwitch carrier-class availability is unparalleled in the industry. Tests showed that Alcatel’s Smart Continuous Switching ensures non-stop switching when components in redundant configurations fail. In fact, Alcatel tests show the OmniSwitch can even learn new flows during fail-over.”

  5. Business Value – SecurityBecause security is not an option • Security Of, To and Through the Network “Network Embedded and Enabled security is mandatory as perimeter concept is fading and the network must be an integral part of the communication system defense.” • Network Embedded infrastructure security:dynamic mobility, authentication services, hardened network control protocols, virus / denial of service attack detection and containment • Network Enabled security: proactive and reactive security services in cooperation with security applications and devices • Alcatel CrystalSec Security:multi-layered, collaborative • “No other vendors come close to Alcatel’s capabilities with AVLANs which best supports security requirements.”

  6. Business Value – ManageabilityReduce total cost of ownership • Managed security: OmniVista and OneTouch • Decrease TCO and maximize the network value • Multi-vendor equipment are detected and supported • A common AOS across the network • minimizes learning efforts, implementation, operation • enables mixing, matching, and managing stacks and chassis even in most demanding scenarios • Industry standard command line and and best GUI “ We were most impressed with Alcatel’s commitment to a well integrated family of products with consistent features and management.”
