Networking

  • PowerFlex appliances support two different network architecture that can provide different performance and scaling characteristics.

    • Access and aggregation: a traditional hierarchical network model structured in layers, typically involving three main layers: access, aggregation (or distribution), and core.
    • Leaf-spine: a more modern network topology aimed at data center networking to overcome the scalability and performance limitations of the traditional three-tier model.

    The following diagram shows the logical layout for a PowerFlex appliance integrated with an access and aggregation network architecture:
