Replacement of Core and Access Switches for Communication Networks
Replacement of Core and Access Switches for communication networks: Substitution of existing Extreme Networks switches from the X440 G2 series and comparable models to ensure continued software updates and support. The measure includes a network restructuring by dissolving the separation of voice and MAN areas, reducing Rapid-Spanning-Tree domains for DSL-based copper rings to prevent network-wide impacts from RSTP events, and introducing an Underlay/Overlay architecture. This architecture must enable scalable Layer 2 overlays, be integrable into existing and new RSTP domains of the copper rings, and provide a standard-compliant Underlay (e.g., SPBM, IP/MPLS, IP/VXLAN/EVPN). Existing Extreme ISW switches and Extreme 5320 and 5420 are to remain operational in the target network.
